I think there are rock stars within every subgenre, and for people who are obsessed with musical theater Sutton Foster and Audra MacDonald are like Beyonce to them. I'm sure the a cappella world has their own version of that, and that exists in every geeky subculture.

The most frustrating things is when you read something that has so much potential, but there are other little red flags where you think, I don't know that I would see eye-to-eye with the people making this film. And that is the worst environment to enter, and absolutely not worth the risk.

If I see a chapstick that I've never tried, I have to buy it. And then once that door's been opened, I have to check the whole store to see if there are more chapsticks that I don't have.

My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug.

I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other 'gentleman' stuff is a chess game, especially these days.

I like figuring out where I need to be mentally so that I'm not thinking about the camera and that it's second nature. I want to get to a place where I can exist within the confines of what you can do with filmmaking and not have to think about it.

I like sets that feel small. Sets that feel really big are difficult. When you're on a big set it feels like there's constant mis-communication.

There's always moments where you creep yourself out, and you think you heard something and you convince yourself that some spirit is in the room with you, but truly, I don't believe in any of that kind of thing. A lot of my friends really do.

People who care about celebrity babies are creepy. What will her baby look like?! A baby. Youve seen a baby right? Itll look like that.

I rarely get recognised. It's always a shock when someone notices me. I always think they must be confusing me with someone else.

My family has had to become quite understanding about me not returning phone calls when I'm filming.

I feel like if it's not scaring you, you're doing it wrong.

I'm a big fan of '30 Rock,' which I think is the most genius show on television.

I'm the person who wouldn't send back my food even if I got steak when I'd ordered fish.

If I die unexpectedly can everyone just do the right thing and pretend I was a way better person than I am?

With any other movie, you're entering new territory, so it's quite different to be involved in something where it's the same characters, and the same people.
