I think you have to be very secure as an actor to escape yourself - to revisit someones past, whether youre portraying another person or creating someone, and then to come back to who you are and not bring those emotions with you.

More quotes by Alex Pettyfer
I did a modeling gig once, but I am not a model. I want to be a model because it's a lot easier than acting.
Alex Pettyfer
People ask me, Why do you love making films? and I always say, Because I love film. I hope that I can call myself a movie buff.
Alex Pettyfer
I'm so terrible. When it comes to talking to women, I'm the worst. I don't know what to say. I come over very, very geeky.
Alex Pettyfer
I have never been in a situation thankfully where I haven't gotten along with my girlfriend's parents. I've been very lucky to have girlfriends that have had such amazing families that have brought me in.
Alex Pettyfer
When you have passion it changes your perspective on things, you want every tiny detail to be right. You want funny moments to be funny, sad moments to be sad. You wanna give your all.
Alex Pettyfer
Pfft, who wants to make a movie about a guy in a house?
Alex Pettyfer
The biggest thing for me is I don't want to let people down. At the same time I love things that scare me and challenge me. If your job doesn't do that and doesn't excite you there's no point in doing it.
Alex Pettyfer
I think it's becoming rarer and rarer when I consider the experiences that I've had in my life between my dad and my brother and all the men in my life who have all been gentlemen and have looked after women.
Alex Pettyfer
When you play a character it's the persona you bring across from a book to film, or book to script to film. If I play Frank Sinatra, there's gonna be things I do in a movie that Frank might not have done, but it's the personality that comes across.
Alex Pettyfer
When you fall in love for the first time, you're naive to every feeling that you're feeling, and you're almost obsessed with or addicted to that person. Your life is consumed by them, and everything you want to do revolves around them. I think it's great.
Alex Pettyfer
I think your emotion changes from person to person. As you get older, a lot of people become cynical because of the experiences they have had and haven't been able to let go of, whether they've been cheated on or whether it hasn't worked out. It's so easy to turn around right now and say, Just let it go.
Alex Pettyfer
I'm a hopeless romantic, I say very loudly and proudly. I get a lot of stick for it.
Alex Pettyfer
Nothing embarrassing, but hopefully I can call myself a gentleman because of my father.
Alex Pettyfer
I truly believe in love, and I think that every relationship should start the way that our relationship started with our first love when we were 16, 17 or 18.
Alex Pettyfer
I never think about the next movie. I always think about the situation I'm in now, but you do think about an arc someone can go. I love Johnny Depp, I love Pirates of the Caribbean, but I never wanted to play the same character over and over again.
Alex Pettyfer
Being an actor in L.A. is like being in prison: you go, you serve your time, you try to replicate Johnny Depp's career-and then you move to Paris.
Alex Pettyfer
You may have good relationships and you may have bad. You just have to roll with it and truly believe, and not be cynical. But, it's hard. You go through four relationships where you're not happy and you've been cheated on, or whatever - and I'm not saying this has happened to me - but you have to still believe.
Alex Pettyfer
I remember reading Disturbia, one of the first scripts I ever got, and I go Pfft, who wants to make a movie about a guy in a house?
Alex Pettyfer
We live in a world where it's so accessible to date now, which is great. I don't judge that. We have so many ways of meeting people. I like to meet someone and have that chivalry, to take them out on a date and actually be a gentleman. I think that's becoming rarer and rarer.
Alex Pettyfer
Parties don't thrill me. I like sitting at home with a tub of Chunky Monkey ice cream watching Big Brother or Friends.
