After seeing 'Big,' I wanted an elevator that opened directly into my apartment, just like Tom Hanks did.

As a senior in high school, you figure out what you want to do with your life. I asked myself if I wanted to get back into acting and thought: 'Yes, but under my own terms and nothing like it was before.'

The funny thing is, I'm not really a big reader, not a big fan of books in the first place.

Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money, but I'm very picky.

I've always said that acting found me. I didn't really find it.

It's a place where I could do something on a weekly basis and see if I like it.

Because of what I did when I was 10 years old, I'm not living from paycheck to paycheck, and I can do things because I want to do them.
