When I was 18 I was an emotional wreck and I couldn't imagine having to deal with some kind of fame.

It's not always the case that things will fall into your lap or that life will be great, but it's all about perspective and having a positive outlook. If something goes wrong you say: "That happened for a reason, what can I learn from that and how can I grow?"

I love the stories that have come before, that we know of. I think for me it's always more interesting to start from square one and you take the fundamental pillars of the character and, around that, try to create something new and different.

My touchstone is just fear and anxiety and I know a lot about those two awful emotions.

Not a fan of spiders. I saw the movie 'Arachnophobia' which was single-handedly rated in the top three worst choices of my life.

Dating someone on the opposite end of the happy spectrum teaches you an incredible amount of patience.

It feels great to not be the acne-ridden outsider that I felt like when I was in high school. It's a lot more fun being alive now than it was then, I'll say that much.
