It's very different when you're reading a script to when you're watching a movie for the first time.
For every three scripts that you get through, one will be made, and that doesn't even necessarily mean that they're going to cast you in it.
I think a lot of people on Twitter say, 'Oh you're really cute. I want to adopt you,' and things like that, yeah.
I seem to be landing a lot of roles with animal interactions, which is amazing.
People actually really want to see what I'm up to, and that's crazy.
I'm so excited to be working on 'Doctor Who,' as it's such a big and important part of British culture.
Most commonly, I've been recognized from people who aren't actually from England.
I still study dance, and it's definitely something I want to incorporate in the future. It's always been my first love.
The power of Twitter still never ceases to amaze me.
When I first watched 'Coraline,' I thought, 'If that ever got adapted...' If it was done by real actors, I think that would be a really fun thing to do, just because it's a kind of whole new universe.
I don't wanna be liked just because I'm pretty.
I don't have anyone's number; I just Facebook them.
I don't have to be making a lot of money or living in a fancy house.
I didn't want to escape my life and become a big actress and live my dreams. That was never the way it was; it was just these amazing opportunities that happened.
