I mean, the great thing about being an actor is you can investigate parts of your brain that might have otherwise gone dormant.

Anytime where you're challenged, physically or mentally, you rise to the occasion in different ways.

In life, I'd much rather have people laughing at me than booing me.

You can bring truth to anything, whether it's a dance movie or an incredibly poignant indie drama or a really broad comedy. As long as you show up to play, I don't think you can go wrong.

My favorite actor is Sir Ben Kingsley - nobody is as good as him, in my opinion. I think he's so good as an artist.

Inherently, making a movie is tough because there's so much anticipation when it happens - even if everything goes well.

I do work too hard sometimes, but my mom is such an inspiration. She tells me to 'chill out' and not take things so seriously. She will say: 'Go and have a massage.'
