I try to stay out of the spotlight as much as humanly possible, because I think that when actors, whether or not they've chosen it or it has been thrust upon them, are living very public lives, it affects your ability to get lost in their performances.

When do I feel my best? When I haven't looked in a mirror for days, and I'm doing things that make me happy.

I'm a pretty boring person. I have a dog that I love, and friends that I love, and a family that I love. I'm just trying to spend as much time with them as I can.

When Chris Nolan is your director you are like, "I trust that, I'm wrong."

When people refer to me as a 'regular' girl...it's code word for 'fat' in Hollywood....But...my body has chosen its shape. I'd rather be strong than skinny.

I want to work with people that frighten me and excite me, and characters that I don't believe I'm the best person for the part but I'm still gonna try anyway. Those are my favorite roles.

It's definitely a thing to be sitting there, getting a pedicure, and you look over and someone is reading an article about an aspect of your life that you know is not true. It's weird, it's uncomfortable, but I don't see it changing anytime soon, so I should figure a way to laugh through it.
