Här får ni en liten intervju om saker som han berättade för Nylon Magazine:

Alex Meraz told Nylon Magazine that he mainly thinks of himself as a painter (even moreso than an actor) and that he would really love to do screenwriting.  He is also slimming down and going for an androgynous look…

Alex Meraz bulked up for his role as a werewolf in Twilight, and now he’s getting slim and androgynous for the lead in Larry Clark’s Savage Innocent.

Larry Clark thought I probably wouldn’t be right for the role in Savage Innocent, having just finished Twilight.  He’s very particular about the actors he wants to work with.  I really had to fight to get the job.  I brought a gun with me and showed him.  “Look man, this is how real I am.” [Ed: he's kidding, we think.]

My new year’s resolution is to have a gallery show this year.  I’m a painter but didn’t pursue it professionally because I was interested in other things.  I stayed up all last night painting. Right now I feel like a painter more than anything else.

I’m fascinated by the writing process.  A good friend of mine is a writer for True Blood, and I’m interested in the deadlines and having people say that something’s not good and to rewrite it. I wish I would have stuck with writing and I wish I knew how to spell.

I think a misconception about me is that I’m just a pretty boy.  Most people are just in this industry for the publicity and glamour of it, which is an element for sure, but I think I want something completely different. I really respect the craft and want to develop as an actor.
