Anna: I am usually the last to know about these things but I know the producers are scouting for locations at the moment.
Anna: (On the set of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe) It's a laid-back set, and everyone's very friendly. Andrew is so relaxed that it makes everyone else relaxed

Anna: I'm one of those people who really wants to do everything. And if I had enough time, I really would.
Anna: (about fansites) I've seen a couple of fansites and I've seen NarniaWeb a while back. But, there seems to be a lot of internet support which is great, I don't think anyone has posted messages on there. I know I haven't. Anyhoo. It's out there but what is reportedly from us really isn't. But, I think we're all aware of the internet. Which is really nice and we all really appreciate it.
Anna: I think the weirdest experience I had was I was on holiday in the summer and I hadn’t seen the trailer in cinemas, I’d only seen the tape of it, and I went with some friends of friends to see War Of The Worlds and I didn’t know the trailer was on it and they’d only just met me and they didn’t know about the film and I got this sudden [points] ‘Is that you?!’ It was really embarrassing; a really weird experience.
