I just really like fun, cool, interesting, quirky girls. And sometimes you find that in 6'2 model bodies and sometimes they're short and brunette. All shapes and sizes - it's really about the personality. That sounds cliche, but it's so freaking true!
I felt really comfortable [on The Maze Runner]. From day one, I loved the script and the story, and I thought it could be something really cool and interesting and original, in this generation of regurgitated projects and sequels and stuff, so I'm proud to be part of it.
It's interesting to play that [ Thomas in The Maze Runner], actually. The audience gets to see the character discover who he is, things that he never even knew about himself. I love that Thomas starts out as the newbie, as the 'Greenie', and the audience kind of experiences that through his perspective. It's really cool to watch him discover these leadership qualities that he has, and the way you approach it... I guess, just honestly. As honest as you can, really.
Yeah, I've only been acting since I was 18 out of high school.
In real life I'd say we're more bromantic. It's like we're literally like a married couple kind of.
I don't really give much thought to the roles that I'd ideally love to play.
Something like the alleyway scene, where it's like a mini one-act play and you run the whole 18 pages of it, it's so much easier to get lost in it. That's why actors love doing theater so much, I guarantee you. It's refreshing to be able to do something where you don't have to be stopped every two seconds, and you can just play it out and it's done.
That's such a relevant thing, as an actor - committing and not being distracted by any kind of technical awareness, or whatever. You do have to block things out sometimes, and sometimes it's easier than others.
I love baseball - 'Moneyball' was my favorite book when I was 13.
In high school, girls started wearing high-waisted pants with their shirts tucked into them. I don't get what that's about.
I feel like I’m good with girls. I understand them and am good at loving them. I’ve always felt like that’s been natural for me.
I never trained in any acting, other than just joking around and doing my own dinky little videos.
I didn't have that many friends my first few years of high school. It was very cliquey and I'm super shy, so it was hard to make friends.
Growing up, I was in love with Jennifer Aniston from 'Friends.
