I feel like I'm kind of faking something if I'm talking as myself and putting on an accent.

I feel like any actor should always be thinking about how to serve the story. The thing to be cautious of is trying to make too much of your "moment," or whatever. The story is a lot bigger than you, and you're there to help it along. The thing to think about is whether what you're doing is true to the moment and where the story's going, rather than going, "Here are my scenes. What can I try and do to make the most of them?"

New Zealanders can be a little hostile.

The acting life is different than I thought it would be. I love it - it's actually a lot less pressure than I thought it would be.

I've definitely had times in my life where I've been depressed and not able to do anything at all.

The interesting thing about acting is using all your own stuff and having some kind of personal catharsis while you're working.

If I could be working every day, I would be.
