- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I rarely get recognised. It's always a shock when someone notices me. I always think they must be confusing me with someone else.
- Late
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My parents got married late and they had kids late, so I never felt a social or cultural thing to be married or pregnant or a homeowner by a certain age.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I fall in love with characters when they're out of their element or are uncomfortable and you really feel for them in a knee-jerk sympathetic way.
- Girl
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think right after 'Up in the Air' everyone wanted me to play the girl from 'Up in the Air,' and it took a little while for people to think of me as an actress from a film that they liked instead of just that character.

I want to do stage again, because there just aren't words for how great it is. People say that all the time, 'There's nothing like live theater, blah blah,' but it's really true. I see a show and I know how they feel, and it feels great.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Voiceover excited me and terrified me. I thought I was going to be really bad at it. It was so freeing and fun to not have to wait for 10 minutes between every setup. They just throw you a direction, and you just say it.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
To not be self-conscious of your appearance is huge, and something that I desperately hope to carry into film at some point in my useless life - to not be thinking, 'My ear looks weird from this angle, why is the camera over there?'
- Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I filmed seven movies in 2011 and I think that was a mistake. I pushed myself too hard and I want to be able to come to work each day and give 100 percent. I guess I found out what my boundaries are.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I guess as long as people think of me for different ages, I'll trust their opinion. I remember noticing one year that Michelle Monaghan played 34 and 19, so I've kind of clung to that as my justification that I can be Jake Gyllenhaal's wife and a freshman in college in the same year.
- Fish
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm the person who wouldn't send back my food even if I got steak when I'd ordered fish.
- Humble
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Humility was an important part of the way I grew up. And I found that to be less common when I moved to California. That's not to say humble people don't exist there, but ambition seems really important.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I heard people saying they were going to become millionaires by the time they were 25 - that's gross and obnoxious, but in California it's looked on as an asset.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My family has had to become quite understanding about me not returning phone calls when I'm filming.

- Nov 07, 2020
After we shot the first 'Twilight,' we organized our own wrap party. We really didn't know what this was going to be. Something like that can come at you unexpectedly, and you just have to try your best to deal with it.
- Character
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.
- Football
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
You can relax more when you're playing a silly character than when you're playing a really rigid character. But to be fair, I think George Clooney is a bigger teenager than any of the 'Twilight' cast. He's the guy throwing a football at your head and then hiding around the corner, pretending it wasn't him!
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My goal all along has just been to work and support myself. I've been really lucky to walk away from the 'Twilight' series unscathed. Somebody asked me recently what it's like to be a star. I thought that was the strangest question. If you saw my day-to-day life, the word 'star' just doesn't apply.
- Long
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm attracted to things that are in direct opposition to something that I've just done. It's not like I'm trying to make the right chess move. It's more just that personal thing where you get connected to something for so long and then you want to do something that's in opposition to that.
- Girl
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I get recognized for 'Twilight,' it's usually a teenage girl, and they're usually really loud. So it certainly feels like I get recognized the most from that, but it could just be because of the nature of how vocal those fans are.
- Crazy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a pretty big dork. It's crazy. I'm one of those people who grew up with all kinds of musicals, but I was right at that age where 'Rent' was a big deal for me and for my friends.
- Brother
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I stole comic books from my brother when I was a kid, but I was never like an avid fan. I can't claim to be like a comic book geek.
- Cool
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug. They would drive me down to New York if there were auditions. When I was 12, I did this show on Broadway called 'High Society,' so we moved to New York for the run of that.

It's a lot easier to act when the writing is good. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to figure out 'Well, why did I say this next?'
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I definitely think it exercises an interesting muscle, auditioning for bad parts and trying to figure out how to make it real. I don't know what I'm talking about now.
- Game
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I guess my silly dream is to be on 'Game of Thrones.' I don't think that I can do that, but that's my silly dream. And there are a lot of American comedies, particularly on NBC, that I would, I would love to do.
- Matter
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm constantly playing this game in my head where I'm thinking, 'Can this quote be pared down and misinterpreted?' It doesn't matter what outlet I'm talking to and how comprehensive the interview is, because I have to think in terms of, 'Right, but 'People' magazine could just take this one quote and take it out of context.'
- Extended
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I happen to be a huge 'Lord of the Rings' fan. I do an annual marathon of the extended editions.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's like an OCD thing, it's not as much something I enjoy. If I see a chapstick that I've never tried, I have to buy it. And then once that door's been opened, I have to check the whole store to see if there are more chapsticks that I don't have.
- First
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I started auditioning when I was about 10 and I didn't get my first job until I was 12, and two years at that age is really hard.
- Mystery
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like people want there to be this mystery between film and theater, but I just kind of went where I got jobs, you know?
- More

- Nov 07, 2020
There have definitely been more than a few moments in my life where I'm wondering where the next paycheck will come from and how I'm gonna pay rent.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I actually love actresses who look like they feel really natural. I like Patricia Clarkson, Laura Linney, Frances McDormand. Those are actresses where the second they show up on screen you're like, oh my gosh, this movie just got so much better.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There will always be a part of me that wants to do a movie musical. I feel like you're doing yourself a disservice when you say something like that, because you never know if that thing is gonna come along and be right, but I'd be lying if I said that that wasn't true.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I graduated from high school early so I could move to New York to do 'A Little Night Music' out of the New York City Opera.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think my iTunes is a kind of strange and embarrassing mix of show tunes and artists that I have no perception of whether or not they're huge or not, you know? I'm the kind of person who doesn't realize that The Arcade Fire is a big deal, but then I expect everybody to know Cocoon, and people tend to not know Cocoon.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think a good script is a rare thing, and I think no matter who you are you have to fight for the good ones.
- Character
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was really overwhelmed by the amount of roles that I got offered that were carbon copies of what I did in 'Up in the Air.' I got every offer for every ambitious, unfeeling practically robotic character.
- Learning
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like I'm still learning a lot. I think there's a tendency for people who are just doing their first couple of films that I see now where they seem to be really resentful of the technical limitations that come along with filmmaking.
