I want to aspire to something like what Denzel Washington does, which is try to find scripts written for white actors - or Jodie Foster, who reads scripts for male actors.
Most actors that I work with are wonderful. Jodie Foster or Tom Hanks will make anything work.
I have great respect for actors like Jodie Foster and Natalie Portman who went to school the entire time they were acting. All I did was one small little independent film, and I realised I couldn't balance both lives.
I try to keep away from being bigheaded. That's what causes people to lose the acting thing. They start being commercial, and then they stink the rest of their life. But there are several respected adult actors who were child actors that started very young. I'm going to try to model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster. Just keep learning from the role and not just go for the money.
I get 'young Jodie Foster.'
I didn't get into acting to have a moment, I got into it because of people who've inspired me, like Judi Dench, Holly Hunter, and Jodie Foster.
I remember watching Jodie Foster in Contact, and that kind of opened my eyes.
Natalie Portman is one of my favorites, and Jodie Foster. Those two are amazing actresses.
I hope to have a career like Jodie Foster, going from child to adult actress.
I'm going to try and model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster.
I admire Jodie Foster. Her head is screwed on really well. It's not loose at all.
I hate the stereotype of the pitfalls of the child actor. There are so many amazing examples - Natalie Portman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jodie Foster, Drew Barrymore - of people who have made it through.
I like Meryl Streep and Jodie Foster. Among Indian actress, I prefer Madhubala and Nutan.
I've worked with a lot of female directors over the course of my career: Martha Coolidge, Catherine Hardwicke, Jodie Foster.
I want to thank some very special people without whom I would not be here today. George Bush, Sarah Palin and the Pope. When I came to Hollywood in 1983, I had one dream. To sleep with Jodie Foster. That didn't work out, but this is nice, too.
I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They're just, like, the greatest ever.
