The thing I loved about this movie [Waitress] when I read the script was that it was exactly the kind of film that I love to watch. It's not just funny, it's serious, just when you need it to be and true to life in a way.

I think I'm probably more passionate about acting now than when I was a kid. When I was young, I didn't know what I was doing.

Dance is definitely what I love doing much more than anything else.

I feel better in my mind when I work out. It makes everything better.

I love Cheryl [Hines] so much and had so much fun with her. Off set we got on so well and would tell stories.

I think the first time I realized I was actually acting was during Felicity. Before that, I was just going along for the ride.

I think people like to be thrilled and excited. And a scary movie is a safe way to do that because you're not actually doing it. It's entertainment. You know that you're in the confines of this two-hour space of safety in the movie house.
