Every day on set, there was something to watch and learn.
Comic books and The Chronicles of Narnia. My mother used to read those to me and my twin brother growing up.
I would love to be able to pursue music as a career but honestly, I'm just not good enough.
Instead of being on teams at school, I was preparing for auditions.
There are rumors, rumors, rumors. I'm always the last one to know about these things, literally.
I'm a video game buff.
Why would people spend good money to have my pants?
The real excitement and big deal for me started when I got cast in the first X-Men, which was sort of a fluke.
The genre of fantasy is about magic and occult characters.
Playing a character who's dealing not only with a superpower but having a normal relationship is easy to associate with, because I feel that everyone has been through it.
No designer has really wowed me yet, I'm into other people's recommendations when it comes to fashion.
Lord of the Rings is a good thing for us because it opened the door for the genre in general. Le Guin's stories are very different from Lord of the Rings.
My power is the ability to control water molecules and form them into ice.
Being a villain is great, even though I've only gotten to do it a few times.
