I remember calling and asking, because I had a few lines that were like, "How could the character have done this?" and I hadn't read the part of the script that said what she [ Cate Blanchett] did, so they put me on the phone with Woody... Allen. I don't know if I could really say "Woody."

When I was 14 years old, I was by no means trying to work professionally at all.

The idea of it [Star Wars] is really exciting, but the most fun part is the actual job you get to do: the character that you get to play, the people that you work with, the day-to-day experience.

I've had that experience many, many, times - when you don't get roles. I'd developed a good muscle for shaking it off.

It was pretty fun [auditioning on the Millennium Falcon], because I enjoyed the material a lot. Last year I read for the directors, then came to England and did a test on the Falcon, then came back and did a couple more screen tests in Los Angeles.

I'm just excited to be a part of the movie [Star Wars]. It's always the particulars that are the most exciting.

Each film and each character is a completely new set of challenges. It doesn't feel like you can rest on something you may have done well in the past.
