When I'm back at home it's just reality. I kind of separate myself from Hollywood.

As you get older, there are different types of roles in people's lives at certain ages.

When I was five I thought auditions were a great way to get out of school!

I know these will become old stories someday and our pictures will become old photographs and we'll all become somebody's Mom or Dad, but right now, these moments are not stories. This is happening and I'm here.

I started working with James [Schamus] early on, and my role as an executive producer was more about being involved in the conversations of putting the film together. I didn't have to do much work because James is the most experienced first-time director you could imagine.

My ideal role would be the lead in a film with a director that I really appreciate and admire.
