When I was in, like, 'I Am Sam,' I was, like, 'I get money? Whatever.'
The barn really smelled like a barn with all the hay.
I never worked with horses before, so that was a new challenge, and working with Kurt was just amazing. I couldn't wait.
I never skimp on TV. I watch an embarrassing amount of TV shows. I don't even know how I do it.
It's cool that people enjoy my work. That's fun for me that people, like going to my movies and enjoy all the hard work that everyone put into it. I think that's the biggest reward, to know that everyone enjoyed the movies with me.
Acting is what I love to do. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I don't think of it as work. It's really fun for me.
When you're acting you put so much of yourself into working. As much fun as it is, it's still hard work and it's still a challenge.
When I'm in front of it, it's different than anything else. It's a different feeling. Thoughts are just going through your head. You're not even really thinking about other things or what you are going to do next.
