I've always played way older than my age. It's the experience behind my eyes or something.

I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.

I'm 26 years old. I don't need to be playing 16 anymore.

I'm not afraid to play my age. I never was. I've never been an ingenue. I like getting older.

I've always believed that if you are willing to play your age that you will work, so it's the thing of continuing to play your age and accepting it when you're younger and you suddenly realize, 'Oh, now I'm playing the mom,' 'Oh, I'm playing the grandma.'

In past generations, people would try to play younger than they really are. My trick is, I don't try to play younger than I really am.

You never play age, you play character.

I've always played characters that were younger than myself.

So I always figured I'd still be playing at this age.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I have always played someone like 10 years younger. When I was 23 or 24, I was playing 15 opposite Evan Rachel Wood in a movie called 'Pretty Persuasion.' She was 16 and nobody in a million years would have thought I was that much older than her.
