When you're looking for stories or movies usually the great stories are about people in their 30s or 40s because they've lived more life and they're usually accomplishing more incredible things. But when there's an interesting story about someone that's your age, you immediately - especially when you're younger - are like, "Wow that's crazy! There's not very many of these."

I don't like to compare things to other things. It always sounds arrogant in print.

I mean, being shot in slow motion doing cocaine by Martin Scorsese is, like, maybe every actor's dream. Nothing will compare to it. Except maybe having kids.

As a writer, I haven't delved into dramatic writing. As an actor, I could always, even more so than comedy, do drama.

I'm a big hip hop fan.

The comedy really comes from how badly you want these characters to succeed and with a comedy that's often hard.

New Orleans is like the bad-kid island in 'Pinocchio.'
