One of the things that would steer me away from a franchise is that I'm playing the same character all the time and I wouldn't want to be known for that.

I've been dealing with so much press for Brooklyn, and now I am rehearsing for a play, and it is hard.

There's no one out there like Quentin Tarantino. His films have a signature look, and they never just stick to the same kind of story.

I love New Zealand. It's my favorite place to shoot. It's one of my favorite countries to visit. The people, the food, the landscape, everything about it I love.

I appreciate the written word and spoken word more, but Atonement sort of established so much of me. It was a character that didn't really speak, and I found that a lot of the roles I was gravitating toward after that were kind of nonverbal.

I was born in New York, so I'd love to study at New York University.

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