I'm really excited for people to be able to see what else I can do, besides high heels and magic powers.
I love that they do that. I love action and I love doing my own stunts. I love that sort of thing.
Growing up, I realized as an actor I had to figure out how to use my platform in order to give back as well and use that spotlight to shine, or at least to balance that light and to try to shine light onto the other issues that were happening in the world.
As part of my Christmas present I'd be giving chickens to a family in Nepal through the Heifer Foundation. I think they expanded my world when I was young to know sort of the other issues that were going on globally.
Philanthropy has always been something that I've been kind of interested in because I think it was instilled at a very young age through my parents.
It's difficult dating as an actor because your free time is precious. The guy I end up with someday is going to have to love traveling.
I've never heard of a size 0 or a negative human. That's hard. A lot of girls aren't naturally built that way.
I was a gymnast for twelve or thirteen years. Then I got into surfing and now I paddle board and hike and do whatever I can. I think it's my love of the outdoors.
To be a part of something like 'Tron,' good God! It doesn't matter how big or small your role is, you're like, 'Yeah, I was in 'Tron.''
I didn't want to find out the reality that if I wanted my dream, I had to lose weight. That's a crushing dream for anybody... to change yourself to get your dream. Nobody should have to do that.
Obviously the original 'Tron' was a very influential movie for its time, so to be a part of the second one is very exciting.
I think outdoors has been my second home. My parents wouldn't be like, "Go and do a puzzle," they'd be like, "Hey, there's a forest across the street. You need to go play in it."
I get a lot of dramas, but I'd like to do a romantic comedy type of movie; that'd be a nice step for me. No more screaming or running or shooting... for one movie where I can just be in love with a boy.
I find that every day is not about where I'll be tomorrow, but it's about what I'm doing today and staying in the moment. By doing that, I'm truly enjoying all of my todays.
