The character is everything that I felt really strongly against - she's superficial, materialistic, vain, amoral. She's all of these things, and I realised that I really hated her. How do you play someone that you hate? But I found it really interesting and it gave me a whole new insight into what my job, or my role as an actress, could be.

I can be 100 years old but I will always be proud to say I was in Harry Potter.

It was unbelievable seeing me as an action figure! In a few months, toddlers all around the country will be biting my head off!

Gender equality, historically has been predominantly a women's movement for women. But I think the impact of gender inequality and how it's affecting men hasn't really been addressed.

I'm going to do what I want to do. I'm going to be who I really am. I'm going to figure out what that is.

Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation. … Gender equality is your issue, too. … I've seen young men suffering from mental illness, unable to ask for help, for fear it would make them less of a men—or less of a man. I've seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success. Men don't have the benefits of equality, either.

I feel like a voodoo doll. It's grim. It's gross.
