vampires
Vampires used to be like Dracula, and now they're young teenage kids, so yeah, I like that.
work
I like animation: you can go to work in your pyjamas.
everybody guess love pan peter
It's kind of a Peter Pan thing: I want to stay a kid. I love it. But I guess you have to grow up someday. Everybody does.
orleans
New Orleans is awake all night, and every night is a party.
anywhere learned love people worked
The most important thing I have learned from the people I've worked with is that you have to love what you do. That passion will drive you anywhere you want to go.
absolutely change
You shouldn't fight change. You should be absolutely open to change.
amazing
I'm always working with amazing people. They're just kind of put in my path.
interviews
Interviews are fun, but I get nervous at red carpets.
across universal
In L.A., I live right across from Universal Studios.
bullying real school
I think everyone has been annoyed at school or in their life, that's a type of bullying. So, you can take those feelings and make them bigger. But I try not to use too much from my real life, because you'll be stuck with that all day.
fun independent done
I havent done a lot of studio movies, but studio movies and independent films are always just as fun as each other.
character simple challenges
I dont really like simple characters too much; its too easy. I like a challenge, and I like characters you connect with on screen.
fun dad thinking
I'm not really sure if I have anything that inspires me. I think what goes into my work is everything beforehand that I do with my dad. He teaches me acting, and I think maybe without him it would be pretty hard. I started acting for fun, really, because my dad's an actor and my sister's an actor, so I started doing it and it was normal. But it got places really fast, and I started doing feature film auditions and stuff.
australia acting grew
My friends in Australia, they grew up with me acting, so they're used to it.
