Harry Potter's like Santa Clause: something you can't see but wish was real so badly that you end up believing in it.

If I were in the director's chair, I would cast [Geena Davis] in something awesome every six months if I had the choice.

I guess what really forms you as a person is what you do within your family to receive love or attention. In my family, what you had to do to receive attention was to have good conversation at the dinner table or for me to do well at school, and those were really my focuses because that was what was valued the most.

Obviously, I'm recognized on the street and I am away from home a lot more and, let's face it, I have an action figure of myself!

I find it easier to cry than I do to laugh convincingly. It's incredibly hard to pull off a laugh that feels natural take after take after take, that feels real. You can tell a fake laugh the minute you hear it, and that's something I really struggle with more than producing tears.

Becoming yourself is really hard and confusing, and it's a process. It's often not cool to be the person who puts themselves out there.

My cinematic crush has been pretty much the same since I was 12: Kevin Costner.
