Julianne Moore’s first film role ever was the killer 90s horror anthology Tales from the Darkside: The Movie. She doesn’t talk about it much. But that changed when she visited The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon recently.

Moore tells Fallon: “I really remember this because this is the part of the movie I didn’t think that I was in. It was my first movie, this horror movie. We were shooting in Yonkers and I was so excited to get this horror movie, and I have a tendency even now not to read anything but the dialogue when I get a script. I don’t like stage directions, I don’t like hearing, ‘She walks down the street jauntily’. I know I walk down the street, I might not be jaunty, I don’t want to know what they think. But I want to figure it out, right?
She continues: “So I don’t read any of the stage directions. So on this job, it was a really quick job, I finished and I got killed by the mummy, and I went over to the director and say goodbye and ‘Thank you for this great opportunity and he’s like, ‘You’re not done.’ I’m like, ‘No, this is my last scene.’ He goes, ‘No, no… you didn’t finish reading the script, did you?’ Because I turn into a mummy at the end and I come back and I kill somebody else, but it was all in stage directions and I never read it! So it was so incredibly unprofessional of me, I didn’t read the script!“
