“I’m going to go travelling – a sort of gap year, condensed into a few months. I’ve seen the inside of many lovely hotels all across the world, but I’ve never been to Venice or Rome or Madrid.”

“Free handbags are lovely, but that’s not what I see as the benefits of being famous.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:30:58 +0000

“Free handbags are lovely, but that’s not what I see as the benefits of being famous. It means I can do things I really care about, like this film, which might not have been made otherwise. Being a teenager is quite lonely, particularly for my generation. There’s a sense of people being cut off and in isolation. And when I read the script, it just made me feel less alone. My character says this line: ‘You accept the love you think you deserve’, and that just hit me like a steam train.”

“I’ve been incredibly fortunate and I don’t want to let anyone down.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:30:11 +0000

“[Natalie Portman]‘s incredible. She’s dealt gracefully with being famous from a young age and has made really interesting choices. But I’m realising I am in a very different position to her. ‘Harry Potter’ is an entity unto itself. I mean, her debut was in ‘Leon’ so she’s been playing controversial roles all her life, while something like Black Swan would be a stark contrast for me. Although I wouldn’t let fear of what people might think dictate the films I make in the future, I do feel a certain sense of responsibility – I’ve been incredibly fortunate and I don’t want to let anyone down, I suppose.”

“I’m not in Rob’s position, I don’t have people screaming and crying and clawing at me.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:29:20 +0000

“I’ve never known anything other than this. It has always been my reality. It’s just that I was incredibly protected in what I call ‘the bubble’ during Harry Potter and I didn’t realise how much. It’s different now. I think for someone like Rob Pattinson [who started his career in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire before finding superstardom in Twilight] it’s harder because he’d lived his life one way, then all of a sudden he wasn’t able to. I’ve never known what it’s like to have that kind of freedom. I can’t even imagine what that kind of fame must be like. So many people must wish they were in his position and think that he has the best life, but actually… there are prices you pay. Don’t interpret that from my perspective; it’s not so bad for me. I’m not in Rob’s position, I don’t have people screaming and crying and clawing at me. I’m so grateful for that.”

“I’ve spent so much time away that maintaining friendships is something I feel really proud of.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:28:34 +0000

“I just do normal stuff. I’ve always exercised. I go to the cinema a lot. I live close to my dad, and my brother Alex, who is three years younger than me, is round the corner. Friends come to me house, I go to theirs. I’ve spent so much time away that maintaining friendships is something I feel really proud of. Even though I’m pretty manic, I’m usually the person they call in a crisis. I like being there for people.”

“I would maybe have gone to art school.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:28:03 +0000

“I would maybe have gone to art school if it hadn’t been for ‘Harry Potter’. Though one way or another, I would have found acting.”

“I don’t get drunk very easily. It’s quite a good talent.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:27:35 +0000

“I’m not that much of a lightweight. My dad’s great hobby is wine, so it’s always been part of our family life. For someone so little, I don’t get drunk very easily. It’s quite a good talent. I’m not challenging anyone to a competition, though!”

“I feel awkward about taking all of the attention when we’re in public.”

quotes — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:27:08 +0000

“My friends drag me out every now and again if it’s their birthday or something. I get these ‘live a little’ guilt trips. They tell me I should have a bit more fun, but I feel awkward about taking all of the attention when we’re in public, especially if it’s in London where the paparazzi won’t leave me alone.”
