We were told that we were filming in the same wood where one of the big
battle scenes (In The Lord of the Rings) took place. It was strangely
exciting. I was thinking, 'Is this where Aragorn kicked ass? Is this
where the Orcs attacked?'
When I found out I was auditioning for Kidnapped, I started to read the
book. I had about 25 pages to go and I said to myself that I wouldn't
finish it unless I got the part. So I finished it.
