I'm not afraid to play my age. I never was. I've never been an ingenue. I like getting older.

I want to do more action adventures and more romantic comedies.

There's usually not a lot of rehearsal when you do films.

I feel like, in a way, after doing it for so many years, you learn a certain concentration and how to turn it on and off.

I think a lot of people become actors because they have a great reservoir and repertoire of many different emotions they felt over their lives. It's like having a toolbox, and you go down into the toolbox and choose one or two of those that you need for a particular scenario, or something that comes up in a line.

I was really conflicted. I had always planned to help the world. Instead, I was going to become an actress? That seemed like such a selfish thing to do.

I'm a girl who loves fashion. I'm such a Cinderella - I love to put on a great dress and heels. It's fun!
