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.
I think that when you’re in the public eye, you automatically become a role model, because people are reading about you and looking at pictures of stuff you’ve done. But, you know, no one’s perfect, everyone makes mistakes. I have made mistakes and I will make mistakes. I’m only human.
People recognize me all the time. I think it's really nice. I don't mind it at all. It feels kind of surreal when people know who you are and I think that it's really cool.
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.
