With her new movie, The Perks of Being A Wallflower, being released in theaters in just a month and the highly anticipated season four premiere of the Vampire Diaries drawing near, Nina Dobrev has certainly been making her rounds in Hollywood. From a blazing hot (and hilarious) Funny or Die rap video to a much-buzzed about interview with Fashion Magazine, Nina is taking the world by storm. Up next? A drop-dead gorgeous cover and photo shoot for Ocean Drive magazine’s September 2012 issue! Check out the breathtaking and sophisticated pics (along with quotes from the feature) below!

On Getting into Character
“I really do believe that if you’re not like the person you’re playing in a way, you can’t access that role. It has to kind of be in you.”Photo Credit: Steve Erle/Ocean Drive
On Her Family's Reaction To Her Racy Scenes
"It’s almost like being a character: I’ve done movies where there are simulated sex scenes, so they understand, but it’s always kind of awkward. They say things like, ‘Oh, you look great. That’s interesting.’ I always pride myself on the fact that I’ve gotten this far without taking my clothes off.”Photo Credit: Steve Erle/Ocean Drive
On Her Dream Role
“I want to do a little bit of everything. My dream role is to do a James Bond film, or if they did another Lara Croft, or even a prequel to Lara Croft, I’d want to do that, to get it out of my system. Do you know the play ‘August: Osage County’?”Photo Credit: Steve Erle/Ocean Drive
On Her Favorite Red Carpet Fashion
“I like all the outfits I’ve been wearing now, but mind you, I have a lot more help! It’s like a whole village.”Photo Credit: Steve Erle/Ocean Drive
