On acting as the iconic-character, Juliet:
"It was definitely scary - I mean, it's Shakespeare. I was attached early on, so I was part of the casting process with Romeo [played by Douglas Booth]."

On supporting the goal to end bullying:
"Bullying is something I went through, from third to sixth grade, when I got pulled out [of school]. I still go through it. And if I can be the person who says, 'Trust me when I tell you it will be OK,' then I will be that person."

On things she would say to her formal bullies:
"Often bullies are taking something [personal] out on others. If they use that energy to make someone smile, we can save so many people in the long run."
