I'm one of seven kids. That'll keep your ego in check.

I just try to keep healthy more so than trying to be thin.

I'm so weak. The stronger I get the more training I'll be able to do.

You need to shower at the end of the day.

My spirit animal is a monkey. Because I have really long arms and I like being up high.

Playing a bad guy is always more fun than playing the good guy.

Everyone's like, 'overnight sensation.' It's not overnight. It's years of hard work.

I became an actor so I can show you characters and never have to show you me.

It's always challenging when you're shooting a film. Shooting things out of order and keeping continuity on all levels is always for me the most challenging thing.

My job as an actress is to make things work and come up with reasons of my own and not just fill in the blanks for anybody else, you know what I mean?

You know, I love traveling and I love being exposed to different cultures, but really it's the people that I've met along the way, not the places I've been, that have opened my eyes.

I was the dork in high school who sang musical numbers up and down the hallways.

I thought 'Out of Africa' would be a beautiful ballet.

I come from musical theater, and a lot of musical theater is about accepting fantasy. I think it is more about just being open and accepting.

Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.

I always saw myself as more of a watcher, although I suppose my siblings might have a different viewpoint on it.

That's how I prepare for anything - I read whatever I can get my hands on, talk to people. I'm a bit of a nerd like that.

I always want to defeat supervillains - it's just the chicken-and-broccoli diet that I'm not into.

I love accents - I wish I could find an accent for every one of my characters. It makes it so much easier when I don't have to hear my own voice.
