I am sure I would love to do it now, but back then, I was, like, 11 and it was 'ugh.' There's nothing sexual or sexy when you're that age. So I was kissing Brad Pitt. So what? He had chapped lips. He was lovely and kind and sweet to me, but it was just yuk.

I want to play an action hero. I'm ready for roles that totally aren't me.

The hardest job an actor can do is all this pretend, all this screaming and being scared for your life.

When I was little, I put on plays for my family at Sunday dinner, and I would direct them and have all my cousins, my brother, and my best friends in it. I was a very imaginative and theatrical child and wasn't afraid of being in front of a camera. It was like make-believe to me.

I'm a person who likes to hang out. I would never go on a blind date. That sounds like the most uncomfortable thing on the planet earth. It's like, 'Hi. Nice to meet you. So, what kind of music do you like?' Date ended.

The filmmaker is really important to me: it could be their first film; it's not just about their reputation, but I have to really believe in them.

I've always been someone who is pretty hard on herself. But I've lightened up a lot.
