And I think in theater, people don't really focus on the media unless there's a huge superstar doing a play or something.
I just need to figure out how to grow without compromising.
I've always had a complex about being taken seriously.
I also want to go to an Italian island and do cuisine properly with some famous Italian chef and, like, his mother.
The tabloids create their own stories about people's lives that don't exist.
I would mimic what I saw in Grease and Guys and Dolls in front of my mom's mirror and I would practice voices and songs. When you put me alone in a room, that's what I would do.
I think a lot of films do themselves a disfavor by putting in way too much information, and everyone knows what's gonna happen next, and no one can actually discover things as they go.
I was embarrassed that I even wanted to become an actress because coming from L.A., with two older sisters in the business and a mom who had been a ballet dancer, it was such a cliche.
Movies are in a much longer production conversation before an actor is even involved. I always thought of actors as the last piece of the puzzle - so you're a tool.
We leave Scarlet Witch without a home, without a family, and she ends up creating a surrogate family within the Avengers and making a decision to be a part of the team. I think a lot of that has to do with what Jeremy's character - like his attitude towards her and the speech he gives her at the end of the film. So we pick up with her having started a new life, but still trying to figure out what her abilities are and if using them causes greater good or greater damage.
I believe that you are only in control of so much. So whatever you are not in control of you can't worry about.
I never wanted anyone to think that I would use my family name to get me anywhere.
What keeps you confident in a healthy way is knowing that everyone else around you is going to support you and teach you and you're going to learn from them. I just feel open to learning from people.
I think every day you try to soak up as much as you can to learn and understand things better.
