ScreenTalk: Michelle Langstone

Michelle Langstone is an actor with many dramatic faces: a murder obsessed woman in For Good, a Norse goddess in The Almighty Johnsons, an unfaithful wife in Go Girls, and a tenacious stirrer in McLeod's Daughters.

Langstone has also appeared in a number of international fantasy shows including Xena: Warrior Princess, Legend of the Seeker and Power Rangers.

In this ScreenTalk, Langstone talks about:

  • Being overawed and excited about being on Xena
  • Having to defend her character on McLeod’s Daughters
  • How Spin Doctors brought together her love of politics and comedy
  • Having to run around Wellington listening to voices on The Strip
  • Being challenged by a difficult role in For Good
  • Concussing a fellow actor on the set of Power Rangers
  • Thinking she'd stuffed up the audition for a role in Separation City
  • Hardly getting any lot of sleep while filming Go Girls
  • Loving the funny, crazy world that is The Almighty Johnsons
