There are a lot of celebrities that I think can get a little bit distracted by the way that our society views celebrity. All of a sudden, the film becomes about, "Come see this celebrity!" I'm not interested in that. I want to see a story.

I wasn't even a theater kid in high school. I studied classical piano, and I ran track.

[In New York,] when you say you're an actor, there's a certain level of respect that goes with that.

One day I'm not busy at all; the next day I have work for months - that's kind of the way it works!

You know how theres always the one girl in drama school who can cry at the drop of a hat? She has that emotional well she can tap into in a second? Im not that girl. It takes a lot to get me to that place.

My thing is that if you don't really connect to something or see that it's going to be something you're going to be proud of, I wouldn't do it.

I prefer theater and film. I did a little television, and obviously I'm not knocking it. It can be great, and it does pay the bills. But it's a little bit more disjointed.
