I want to write and direct a movie one day.

I was 12 when I did 'Super 8,' and when Dakota was 12, she did 'War of the Worlds.' Steven Spielberg was involved with both movies, so we both worked with Steven when we were 12.

As my sister got older, I saw how excited she got when she got to do all of that stuff. I was always like, "One day, I'll get to do older parts." I thought that was cool.

I feel like with every character, you try to put yourself in that person's position and just completely use your imagination. That's what I do, at least. Everything is just pretend.

I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They're just, like, the greatest ever.

I can't really remember my life without movies.

I like necklaces that are short, the way skateboarders used to wear them in the seventies.
