People have different expectations when you're younger - it's less about changing yourself into a character; they want a more natural thing. And they just want you to be able to turn up every day and carry on working. They have a horrible fear of 10- or 11-year-olds, that they're going to say 'I don't want to play today.'

When you're happy you don't always have to be laughing, and when you're sad you don't have to be crying; sometimes it's the opposite. You laugh when you're the most upset.

'Cinema Paradiso' is a fantastic film, I love that.

Every day is a different day in New York; there's always something new going on.

For every different role you play it's nice to have different challenges for each one.

I guess I'm just a normal kid apart from the acting.

I have a younger brother.

I like all sorts of chocolate. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, anything.

I like hot weather. I think it might be a bit better if England was a bit hotter.

I like to go to bed early so I can get up early.

I never really acted at school. It was doing small parts on TV that really got me started.

I wish I could draw.

I'm not a sad person, upset the whole time, but I seem to be quite emotional.

I'm sure everyone has many types of music that they enjoy.

I've got a good family to support me, so I'm grounded in that way.

I've never been a great cook.

It's very nice having my mum as my agent. You know that she's always doing what's best for you.

Johnny Depp is probably the best actor.

Scary is good. Kids like going to a movie and being really scared rather than fake scared.

There's never been a particular band that I've followed religiously. But I do tend to listen to sadder music.
