I'm a vegetarian and very much active in regards to how I feel about animal rights and protecting animals and giving animals a voice. But at the same time, I appreciate and respect other people's decisions to eat meat. The only thing that I hope is that people are educated, that they're aware, that they're living a conscious lifestyle.
I love people who really turn their lives around. I think it's such a wonderful human trait.
I think it's really important to live in the moment.
Making a movie is, for me, like painting. I just enjoy the care that goes into every brushstroke and the choice of every color. I enjoy the intensity of it.
Playing different characters in different films helps keep you excited about what you do. It always seems like a whole new adventure.
I read everything I could find: books and online. Sometimes bigger revelations came to me through finer details or something that you wouldn't pick up just by surface reading.
My mum is an artist and very into creative expression and freedom.
I love it when I meet a woman who was poor as a child and maybe had an abusive family, and broke out and found the one and they're married with a very healthy home and children, and they've let go of regret and their past and decided to embrace their journey and what that stands for.
I wasn't interested in fame or fortune. I was interested in being an actor and being creative. I was very adamant about that.
I'm portable. I carry a laptop and a little recording studio on my back.
Growing up on a farm was the best. I remember loving that expanse of space. The sky at night was so clear, I could see every star.
Something I've noticed as I get older is that I do think about the future more. It's all positive thinking.
A female's career as an actor is very different from a male's career as an actor. That's just the way it is. So, I'm fascinated by really strong male careers that have inspired me, and also really incredible male roles.
I've been rapping since I was 18 years old, with a crew called Blades.
I'm a bit hyperactive as an actor, I like to keep moving.
I'm pretty unusual for an actress in Hollywood because I am totally unselfconscious about my body.
I used to paint a lot of oil and now I paint more mixed-media stuff.
I'm always writing lyrics. I have so many lyrics on so many stray pieces of paper. Everywhere.
I play the keyboard, piano - I like making beats.
There are so many different ways to develop a character - physically, mentally, spiritually and all of that - but the research was really beautiful. I love the process of finding characters because, in the beginning, it's really unknown, and then, by the end of it, all of a sudden, you're walking and talking like that character.
I had an amazing childhood.
A lot of people I make music with are really talented and it doesn't stop at one instrument.
I didn't go to the cinemas a lot as a kid.
Because I don't have a child and as much as you can sort of imagine it it's always nice to hear from all different walks of life what motherhood is like and what that feels like. And particularly young mothers.
I think as a child you know when it's time for your parents to split. You realise they love each other, but they're not in love with each other. And I think as a child it's much better for your parents to split than for them to stay and have dysfunction within the family.
