What character were you in your first school play?
I was in Oliver! in high school as the undertaker. I went to school with Matt Bomer and he played Bill Sikes. At the end of the play, when his character was dead, we always tried to make each other laugh. If you had told us back then that we would still be doing this now, we wouldn’t have believed you.
When were you most starstruck? I was in my trailer on the set of Twilight, looking at myself in the mirror in these tight jeans, red contact lenses and Hot Topic jewellery, when my phone rang. This familiar voice said, “Hi, it’s Julia.” “Julia who?” “Julia Roberts.” “Well, what can I do for you, Julia?” I had worked with Tarsem Singh on The Fall and she wanted to know about my experience working with him [Roberts was in Mirror Mirror for Singh]. We had the nicest conversation.
