You don't always just have to do an indie movie to feel like you're controlling it with a few people that you really have connected with, creatively. You can do it on a bigger scale.

There's nothing weak about being subject to something.

My family is just embarrassingly proud of me. My brothers get a little protective... overly protective. I've made rules now where I say: "You can't go outside and scream at people if they have cameras!"

As soon as there are 200 people in a theater watching me, I get really scared.

I don't want to discredit people's individuality, but I think people are pretty much the same. People are very similar. If you have a good enough imagination then you can feel things that you personally have never done before. That's acting.

People are always going to find the ones with the weird like buzz-worthy thing about a movie and like run with it.

I think it's cool to come out of somewhere where you're being pushed into this mold and then you figure out in that who you are.
