A little fight in you. I like that.
Let's put a smile on that face!
Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos, I’m an agent of chaos , and you know the thing about chaos? It's fair.
See I’m not a monster, I’m just ahead of the curve.
I believe whatever doesn’t kill you, simply makes you stranger.
My character was extremely lonely and I think I carried that feeling through the whole filming experience.
I love acting and I have a lot of fun.
I don't feel like I have anything to lose, so I don't really understand what I'm putting at risk.
I don't have that much forward planning about what I want to do next, or in the future.
I never took an acting class, so I've made all my mistakes on film.
I want to do theatre. I love theatre.
When I'm not acting, I do like to take a year off at a time, at least if I can, just in order to keep acting exciting - otherwise I get bored very quickly.
In a way, I was spoon-fed, if you will, a career. It was fully manufactured by a studio that believed that they could put me on their posters and turn me into their bottle of Coca-Cola, their product.
I felt like my career was out of my hands.
