I've always wanted to act and I grew up a little on film sets when my dad was working as an actor.

I'm Irish, so I'm messing all the time. Which means, I'm having a laugh. I'm always making jokes.

I know most of the photographers in Ireland. And if I don't want my photograph taken, they will leave me alone.

Everyone thinks I'm ethereal. But I'm not like that, you know. I'm not ethereal. Well, I might have a little bit of that quality to me, that 'old soul' thing, but I'm not ethereal.

That's what acting is. You're pretending to be someone else.

I think 'Twilight' was such a phenomenon that it will be a while before anything like that will happen again. Cause it really influenced pop culture, and the stars of it - well, the people who became stars out of it - their lives were completely changed.

When I was younger, I was very athletic and I always loved sports and physical things.
