I love firing guns. It's an amazing feeling - so sexy and powerful.

The main reason I did 'Captain America' was because I wanted to get out of my own head and stop taking my work so seriously.

I'm deeply ambitious and I always have been.

My real self, the self I have always been from a child, is a loner and nerd, slightly overweight, with a very heavy fringe. That is who I was as a kid. I don't think I will ever be anything other than that.

Although I grew up in London, I spent summers in Missouri, where my dad lived. It's quite a liberal town, Kansas City. You'd be surprised.

I don't think I'm curvaceous. It's simply that most other actresses are really, stupidly tiny.

I'd love to do an action movie. Something with lots of stunts. Anything fast and dangerous and involving guns.
