Quotes from Josh Hutcherson

Luckily, no one I've ever been in love with has needed me to save their life!

For me, I love auditioning.

The Hunger Games' for me is I love the books so much and the character and the story were incredible. That's kind of the game plan is just do really interesting stories with interesting characters.

I really love my stylists, they really get what I like.

When you get to play a character that's in love, it's cool.

I love doing roles and movies that are different from each other.

I think those that are holier-than-thou don't make jokes. They take themselves too seriously and Peeta doesn't take himself too seriously. This is what I believe in and I'm comfortable with that and I can make a joke here and there.

Growing up in the acting world, you have a lot of opportunities to change who you are and what you believe in based on how people treat you. I never wanted to do that.

I don't like being treated differently.

For me, in the third book, when Peeta gets brainwashed by the Capitol, that's going to be fun to play. The rest of the time he's very much into Katniss, and for that to get turned around and to play it the other way, that's going to be very exciting.

There's often a natural inclination to want more.

Vampires can do whatever they want whenever they want, like fly around all the time. Plus, girls love vampires. Maybe they don't want to admit it, but they do, which is a plus.

Getting to do different genres of movies means you're gonna have different types of situations. So I want to try and do every type of genre there is out there.

My main source of reading is scripts, which doesn't leave a whole lot of room for books.

Once you have love as a motivator in a story, your character is free to do anything. Once you say the character is in love, he can do the craziest thing that nobody would do who's not in love. Once you're in love, you have that excuse to go and do whatever you want.

There's definitely a large fan base for the 'Twilight' and 'Harry Potter' movies that need their next fix.

Well, getting behind the camera is something I've always wanted to get involved with. Ever since I was doing movies like 'Zathura' I was very interested in all the different jobs on set and kind of soaking all the information up like a sponge.

I've been the type of guy, I've always been very forthcoming with how I feel. And that it doesn't make you less of a man to like go and be like, 'This is how I feel about you. This is the truth.'

I still get a little nervous when talking to girls. Which is awful, and embarrassing, because I feel like I shouldn't.

We've seen some insane signs: 'Is that a loaf of bread in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?' Funny stuff along those lines. Very original. One just said, 'I will do unspeakable things.' I thought that was very interesting - and mildly terrifying!

The way I look at it, movies are a different medium for storytelling than books.

I don't think I've had love at first sight. But, I've definitely had moments where I've seen a person, and I'm like, 'Wow, there is something different about you, and I really want to get to know you.'

It's cool to play a vampire and be a part of this new, hot genre.

I think girls like vampires because they are mysterious and they really don't know what they are about. I think a lot of girls are attracted to that.
