I don't know if I'll ever direct, but producing is dipping my toe into my behind-the-scenes world.

I've always just shown up to set and said the lines, [but] I want to help develop scripts and help cast and help bring a visual tone to something.

You have to find something you relate to in every character.

What you learn in any acting class is how to make a fool of yourself and enjoy things and get out of your head.

I've seen some of my favorite actors give bad performances, and I have to tell myself that failure is a part of success.

There are problems everywhere, of course, but you can only see those certain problems when you reach a certain level. So I try to think of those problems as, "This is a sign that I'm having success, that I'm also having issues with this."

As you get older and you progress in your career, you start to want to have more control over things and you have ideas.
