Everything, I think, about acting is based on imagination.

My dream role would probably be a psycho killer, because the whole thing I love about movies is that you get to do things you could never do in real life, and that would be my way of vicariously experiencing being a psycho killer. Also, it's incredibly romantic.

It's so normal for a teenager to dress in black -- and be real unhappy and stay in your room and say sarcastic things. How could something so normal be considered morbid?

I'm one of those people who loves to fly.

I have so much respect for Sam [L.Jackson] that if I had questions about anything, I would call and ask him if he agreed with me before I brought it up with Craig [Brewer].

All the roles are for boys. The girls' roles are either small or all the same. There's just nothing interesting.

You won't see me in a better mood than 4:00 in the morning on my way to work.
