I think, as an actor, and particularly if you are playing the lead in something, you have to view yourself as the head of department for the cast. All of the other departments are accountable and have somebody at the helm who is leading them all the time, and I don't think that the actors should be any different.

I get constantly mistaken for Elijah Wood. I was in Japan and someone held out a photo of him for me to sign.

Personally, I prefer the dark side.

I know I'm not a coal miner, but I do long hours and I never complain, and there is nowhere else I'd rather be. So, yeah, that's how I'd define myself. I want to do it right, and prove people wrong once and for all about the myth of child stars.

I would consider doing any part as long as the script is good and the film has an interesting director.

I think I tried to steal a Mars bar once from a shop but then I went and put it back.

I think I have just always had an awareness that when you go to a premiere and people start cheering and shouting your name and stuff, they are shouting at a perception of you that they have.
