“Sandy Hook is a synthetic completely fake with actors, in my view, manufactured. I couldn't believe it at first. I knew they had actors there, clearly, but I thought they killed some real kids. And it just shows how bold they are, that they clearly used actors.”

“I knew we needed brave actors - the story called for scenes that might be frightening to some - and we needed it to be real and believable.”

“Becoming an actress - I never intended to be an actor. It was not something I thought I would be, it was not something I dreamt of. I think it was my destiny to be an actor…”

“I think an actor's filmography represents the direction and the course of the acting that an actor has pursued. I'm filling in my filmography to let people know who I am and how I see the world as an actor.”

“In real life, I'm just an actor. I play pretend. I tell stories.”

“It's absurdly foolish to hail me as a method actor, no one can be anymore mistaken. Method is a technique practicable only by the initiated few across the world. However, some amount of method is certainly inherent in every actor who applies it in their performances to some extent, myself included, so at the other end of the spectrum, I wouldn't believe an actor who says he doesn't follow any method either just as I wouldn't any other actor loosely claiming to be a method actor.”

“My job as an actor is to just tell the story as best I can from my character's point of view and let the audience decide.”

“When I was 5 or 6, I already was telling people, I want to be a movie star. I was already a movie fan, though at the time I thought the actors were actually behind the screen. As a boy, my dream was just to be a movie star; later, I wanted to be an actor.”

“I am an actor and I'm always going to be an actor and I have fun.”

“Yes, I can play younger than my age. But I can play characters older than I am, too. I`m not an actor who can just play the kid.”
