“It's cool to play a vampire and be a part of this new, hot genre.”

“When you get to play a character that's in love, it's cool.”

“I put on fifteen pounds of muscle, so that was a lot of eating chicken and a high protein, low-carb diet. Also a lot of heavy lifting and a very different kind of training with an ex-navy SEAL guy who wanted to kill me every time I got with him. In a good way.”

“I didn't go to high school, so I don't have a high school experience. I was home-schooled during high school.”

“Well, food's always the way to anybody's heart, I think, guy or girl.”

“We've seen some insane signs: 'Is that a loaf of bread in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?' Funny stuff along those lines. Very original. One just said, 'I will do unspeakable things.' I thought that was very interesting - and mildly terrifying!”

“I play basketball probably four to five days a week when I'm back home.”

“I got my first tattoo when I was 16 years old and I went with my mom to get it done - she has a bunch too so we're tattoo buddies now.”

“Well, getting behind the camera is something I've always wanted to get involved with. Ever since I was doing movies like 'Zathura' I was very interested in all the different jobs on set and kind of soaking all the information up like a sponge.”

“The way I look at it, movies are a different medium for storytelling than books.”

“I love doing roles and movies that are different from each other.”

“In all honesty I think that I've had a very normal life, even though I've been making movies since I was 9.”

“There's definitely a large fan base for the 'Twilight' and 'Harry Potter' movies that need their next fix.”

“I'm a big romantic, traditional, cheesy guy.”

“I like both athletic girls and girly girls. It depends on their personality. I like girls who can go out and play sports with me and throw the football around, but you don't want a girl who's too much tougher than you. I like brainy girls who can respond to what I'm saying.”

“I play sports.”
