You should always view any job as just as nerve-wracking or just as exciting as any other.

There's this feeling, when you stop believing it's a show and you're there and this is happening.

For a relative newcomer, it's obviously a dream to work with such a talented actress as Anna Paquin, who won an Oscar at 10, or something ridiculous like that. That's a dream.

In my ideal world, it would be a soulful connection to the role because you've shared a lot of the same experiences as the character and you just feel so right in it. That's the first thing I look for.

Until I did my work and I did my utmost best, I feel like I don't have a right to feel excited.

I felt like I had to prove myself, but I feel that you have to do that anyway, as an actor. You're there to do a job, and that's your primary concern.
