All of these red carpet events may seem natural for you journalists, but it doesn't feel natural for actors.

I didn't sound anything like Capote at the screen test. It was more like Bob Dylan. In his early years. With the flu.

There's not a huge pile of scripts at home. It's what happens to be on the table at that moment with your availability. And then you have no control over when these things come out.

But I think the children of actors share a certain pragmatic approach. One is denied some of that 'running away with the circus' element of being an actor.

I do always feel very proud and flattered by being asked to be a part of American productions playing American characters.

Jennifer [Lawrence] and Josh [Hutcherson] seem very, very grounded. They're getting down to the film like they did last time.

Often jobs are un-turndownable even before you read the script. You go, "Well, I have to do that."
