“I think interviews can be fine. It's just there's this terrible fear of coming off wrongly or saying something that gets taken out of context.”

“Supposedly I'm impossible to talk to. But it's honestly not me being difficult. Sometimes you just don't have a lot to say.”

“As you're growing up, it's odd, because directors don't expect you to grow up. They think you'll be young forever, but as an actor, there is an awkward period when you're too young for old or too old for young, and it can be an odd time.”

“I'd just like to carry on acting.”

“The action stuff is only good if you get the character stuff in there as well. Sometimes that get lost in amongst all the trying to make stuff blow up.”

“I manage to live pretty normally.”

“I can be a bit grumpy. I'm full of angst, and hormones.”
