Paquin added in her conversationETshe is “just really grateful for the support” and said, “At some point, I will probably elaborate on my own platform in my own words.”

On the film’s red carpet, Paquin told PEOPLE that dealing with her health issues “hasn’t been easy,” but she is grateful to be doing what she loves.
“My first love was independent filmmaking. That’s how I entered the film industry. I was working with people who were all about telling stories and telling them with integrity and truth,” said the actress.
Of working with her husband, 54, whomshe wed in August 2010, she shared that"he’s my favorite person to play with."
“Honestly, if I didn’t think he was great at directing, I wouldn’t be working with him,” said Paquin. “Of course, I love him dearly as my husband, but I’m pretty unsentimental when it comes to work.”
