China has been a textbook case of how the government did just enough intervention to increase penetration, but the reality is that it isn't going to work for all countries in the same way. Culture always plays a role and you can't necessarily take what worked in one market and automatically make it work somewhere else.

My best advice about working in Hollywood is: Save your money!

When I get the chance, I'm at the theaters all the time, trying to check out the latest movies.

A lot of kids think they can just go to Hollywood and become an actor or actress. It's not that easy. There are millions of kids who come out here wanting to act. So, you have to have a plan, and you have to stick with that plan, because it's not going to be easy by any means.

Don't depend on acting as your sole source of income. Work nights, so you can have your days off to attend auditions. Have something to fall back on. That's what my mother taught me, and it's critical in Hollywood.

When something happens, we always say it happens for a reason.

I tell people, 'It's just like a cliche, but it's true: In Hollywood, dreams can come true.'
