Picks and Pans Review: Journeys with Screen Newcomer Anita Briem

UPDATED 07/21/2008 at 01:00 AM EDT Originally published 07/21/2008 at 01:00 AM EDT

The Iceland native and Tudors star, 26, makes her U.S. film debut as a mountain guide in Journey to the Center of the Earth.

LIKE YOUR CHARACTER, YOU SPEAK ICELANDIC. All the time. People accuse me of making it up. They're like, "You are really from Minnesota!" It comes in handy when you need to maintain a ladylike behavior. It's best to speak in Icelandic not to divulge any bad words.

ARE YOU A THRILL SEEKER LIKE IN THE FILM? I insisted on doing all the stunts, so I'm a bit of a daredevil. It's the pure Viking blood running through my veins that makes me this way. I'm a very dangerous woman!
