I find that I relate to most of the characters that I play on a really personal level, just because we're the same age, we're girls, and we're growing. I can find myself in those roles, so it makes it easy to connect to. But all of them are their own person - they're all hard to understand and hard to figure out, just like I am.

When I got the audition for 'Big Little Lies,' I knew this project was going to be different than anything I'd ever done. That didn't change the way I approached the role.

My generation is so motivated to tell their own stories because we have so many that need to be heard.

Golf is such a big commitment, and so is acting. Sometimes you have to give up something to do something else, although, when I'm working on location, I always take my clubs.

I was on a sitcom called 'Gary Unmarried' for 37 episodes, and then I was in 'Bad Teacher' with Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake.

I just love to watch people get scared. It's like, 'Yes, I accomplished my goal!'

I've never looked at acting like a job. It's never been like that.

I don't know whether to call myself a golfer who acts or an actor who plays golf.

Kathryn Newton

I'd say 230 yards off the tee is my average. Short game is a strength. I don't three-putt often. Actually, I'd say my mental game is probably the best. I'm very good at staying positive and focused on my game.

Kathryn Newton

The thing I love about golf is that it's all on me. I can't blame another player, the wind, or even blame a bad round on one chunked shot. It's not subjective at all. Meanwhile, acting is very subjective. I can be the best actor and not get the job.

Kathryn Newton

I'm a huge fan of Greta Gerwig, and working with her was also a dream come true. She was one of those directors who, when people asked me, 'Who do you wanna work with one day?' I'd say Greta Gerwig. I've always been a fan of mumblecore and her films, and so to work with her was just so much fun.

Kathryn Newton

I play golf with my dad all the time.

I've been really lucky that I've kind of gotten to flow from project to project, because I find it's very important that when you're on a project, you are so invested in it.

Kathryn Newton

You have so much freedom as an actor in your character's choices, and I really learned to take advantage of that.

Kathryn Newton

Reese Witherspoon made me better. Just working with her, being with her, I learned so much. I want to be like her.
