I had done a lot of running in 'Texas Chainsaw' and sword-fighting in 'Percy Jackson,' which taught me to fall properly.
Alexandra Daddario -
I've been pretty lucky. Every single thing I've done has meant so much to me and has been like a stepping stone to something different.

I got a dog. I take him on hikes, and I go to yoga all the time and drink green juice - very cliche actress.
Alexandra Daddario -
When you're with another actor who's also been through five hours of prosthetic makeup, and you're eating another person's neck, and fake blood is being spurted out at you for two minutes, it's incredibly fun, and you're in character for that time. You can't really believe that that's your job.
Alexandra Daddario -
I'm not a great student, so I don't know that I would have been a great detective. Part of my brain sort of works that way, like wanting to figure out puzzles and figure out what happened and why people do the things they do and who they are and how it happened.
Alexandra Daddario -
'True Detective' did change my career.
Alexandra Daddario -
There's a method to the madness in filmmaking, where everything's very specifically laid out, the shots and what they need - but there also can be a freedom to allowing the actors to find genuine moments.
Alexandra Daddario -
I get really frightened easily.

It's odd seeing yourself on screen at all.

Now that I have a dog, I frequently have to take him out and get some exercise, which also gets me exercise.
Alexandra Daddario -
Any time you do a movie, there are going to be war wounds that you end up getting.

I went to an all-girls school for part of high school, and the idea of boys was amazing to me; like, all I ever wanted to do was kiss boys and be around boys.
Alexandra Daddario -
It made me feel cooler in real life to know I could be The Rock's daughter.
Alexandra Daddario -
That would make a great Instagram photo - me and David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson.

I love to travel, and I think being whisked away somewhere for a vacation is a pretty amazing date. But, I'm really into the basic movie and dinner. It's not where you are but who you're with that really matters.
Alexandra Daddario -
I'm a combination between extreme insecurity and extreme confidence.
Alexandra Daddario -
I think, for different types of things, more rehearsal is very important.
Alexandra Daddario -
Having dinner with somebody you've looked up to your whole life is quite a memorable thing. Like, 'Wow. I'm having dinner with someone who is a huge inspiration to me.' That's intense.
Alexandra Daddario -
I never even went to Jekyll & Hyde's restaurant. I loved the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade, though.
Alexandra Daddario -
It's never a done deal until it's a done deal.

When I was first starting out as a kid, I tried to pad my resume with everything I had ever done - ice-skate, carry a tune. I can't dance for my life, but I can learn, so I'll tell people I can dance. I play the piano - I'm a really good pianist, actually.
Alexandra Daddario -
I do consider myself to be a smart, tough girl.

My mom used to model when she was younger, before she went to law school, and I think she thought it was pretty cool. I think my parents saw that acting ultimately made me happy, even though it was a rough ride for a little bit.
Alexandra Daddario -
For some reason, I find jogging incredibly boring, but yoga is the only thing I've been able to consistently do over the years. I think it's because it also is sort of a mental exercise and calms you and refocuses you. So I find that that's great, and sometimes someone will drag me to a spin class or on a hike.
