unique games always-trying
I'm always trying to find something unique or a project that I can do something unique in. When the director has a vision for a piece that I've never heard before, and they can back that up with visuals and they talk a good game, I get really interested in the world that they're trying to create.
straightforward personal-life
I don't like to act in my personal life. I like to be straightforward.
flirting thinking work-out
You know, I'm not really any good at working out when people are flirting with me. And I think I'm too flirtatious with people I'm trying not to flirt with! What I am good at is making people feel uncomfortable. I don't want to but it always ends up happening!
hope believe love-is
Hope is the most exciting thing in life, and if you honestly believe that love is out there, it will come. And even if it doesn't come straight away, there is still that chance all through your life that it will.
careers worry littles
I guess I will probably produce a little bit more. For me it's a career, you create as you go along and you can't worry about always being on top.
mistake opportunity play
You learn so much from making mistakes, not even necessarily mistakes that I've made, a lot of the time the films just don't work out because it's a really difficult process. And sometimes there's a certain person underlining process. But I've had an opportunity to work on all different types of films and I have had a lot of opportunities to stretch myself in different ways and now is the time where I get to try and figure out out the roles that I can really play well and play them well.
tv-shows car down-and
I spent my entire first pay cheque from 'Cracker,' a TV show on ABC, on an Audi because my other car broke down and I needed to get to work.
being-happy teenager thinking
I don't think there's a problem with being a teen idol, if that happens to me, I'll be happy to deal with it.
six film grind
I get quite fed up being on a film set day after day, six days a week. It can get to be a grind.
opening-up dating cans-of-worms
I don't really comment on my personal life because I feel like any comment at all is opening up a whole can of worms. I'd just rather not talk about who I'm dating.
mistake trying actors
I became popular very young. I viewed myself as just a young actor trying to figure out how to do well, and, you know, making mistakes and learning and growing.
independent thinking attention
Honestly, I guess if you looked at my CV, I've been doing independent movies since I started. I think that I kind of took a few steps back from Hollywood as soon as it all started to come my way because I wasn't quite ready for the attention.
independent acting film
You know, honestly, acting in film is remarkably independent. You're doing your thing and someone else is doing their thing.
