Name: JChap2
Location: Charlotte, NC
Questions:

1. Gina, your grandparents were adorable at the premiere! Other than obviously being extremely proud, what did they think of Haywire? Was it a little intense for them? 🙂

Sitting next to my Papa and Grandmama on the way to the premier put tears in my eyes, there’s no words to describe sharing a moment like that with them..

2. Gina, is there a specific actor you’d REALLY like to work with in the future? (other than Johnny Depp! HAha!)

Nope, just Johnny.. if we could just make that happen already I could get back to fighting.. haaa Just kidding, no there is a lot of people Id love to work with absolutely.

Hi Gina, First I want to say Congratulations on Haywire! How exciting for you, looks like you are kicking some serious butt!! You rock in the trailer, can’t wait to see it!

1. How do you like being an Actress compared to the other things you do? I love it. I have so much to learn but thats what I like about it.

It’s a lot of work and a lot of fun and I have a lot to learn also, it’s pretty new to me so it’s easy to be passionate about it.

Lots of love & hugs!
Deborah


Name: Ribbentjärn
Location: Sweden
Questions: Hi Gina! i am a theater/actor student(but i am also a MMA and American sport fan 😛 ) from sweden and i know you probably get this a lot but i just have to say it,I am a big fan of you and i consider you as one of the most beautiful women in the world! but now on to my question,

1. I think u are a great actress, was it easy for you to play against all these big names i Haywire or was it difficult??

Name: Chuzzy
Location: Nottingham. England
Questions:

1. Will you ever visit England?

Absolutely.

2. Will you be making any more action films?

Yes


Name: Swinjen
Location: Winona, MS
Questions:

1. With haywire being an action adventure movie, if u were to continue in movies what other genre would u like to tackle?

A dark romance.

2. What do u think of the score that david holmes provided for the movie and the artwork that niel kellerhouse did for the marketing?

I thought they were perfect for the film. They both represented the movie how it is.. authentic.

3. And this is coming from the comic book fan in me. if u were ever really approached for the role of wonder woman would u wear the traditional costume or the redesign that has pants?

I think if Wonder Woman came to this planet she would be a little out of place, still very dominant and inspiring but it could be more played like a Hancock meets Encino Man, with a female lead. Haa I don’t know if that makes sense to anyone else but that’s the way Id want to see her. Id like to see the vulnerability in her as well as her strengths in a realistic way is what I mean. (redesign outfit for sure)

4. Have u seen any good movies lately?

I laughed so hard in Wanderlust and Im looking forward to Hunger Games..

Music and the knowledge that this too shall pass.

    Saw your film today and was very impressed. You seemed very natural on screen and the fight scenes where some of the best I’ve ever seen. I’m looking forward to your next movie, of which I hope there will be many. Good luck in whatever you decide to do.

    Hi Gina, we are very interested in interviewing you on our sport radio show in FL. The guys that I work with LOVEEEE you and we would be so honored to have you on the show. The show in on Monday – Friday on 940 WINZ and it’s called The Amigo and Dizz. Please let me know if you are interested. Thank you!! 🙂

  • Hi Gina,

    I saw yesterday your movie Haywire, find him very well. What I wanted to ask you, do you want to make more movies or are you going back to the martial arts?
    Because I’m an Aries too and have a birthday on the same day like you have (it’s not a joke), how much Aries is in you?

    And one more personal question Gina, I do not see you as a VIP or so, but what are the chances that a normal man (not a MMA fighter, actor, singer or something like a VIP) may invite you for a drink or a meal? date? or something like that, so just He can meet you?

    Gina, I hope you will make more movies, because as actress you are just good as a MMA fighter. Sorry for my not so perfect english, I’am not from the USA ;))

  • p0d

  • Sarah

    How can I ask Gina a question

  • Ibrahim

    Haywire was absolutely amazing. I wish you fought Antonio Bandares at the end. I think the next movie would be Bourne & Gina in Bourne Dual. Since you switched careers, would you (honestly) go back to WMMA fighting? I admire you as a person & idol. Best wishes in your endeavor.
