Film has always been where my heart is.

I'm incredibly close to my family. I have two younger brothers, they're both artists and actors; and their work and the way they see the world inspires me. We've been making films together since we were kids, in our backyard.

I'm a huge 'Futurama' fan, so that's my closest sci-fi tendency.

It's the reason we go to films and watch television: to escape the mundane nature of life and see another world and see ourselves in that other world. I think that's what sci-fi does so well.

I wanted to get everything right. I was super nerdy and academic. I got so much satisfaction out of getting good grades.

As an actor, you're listening to the other person and always trying to be present and take everything they're giving you, but when they're not there you have to produce that yourself.

I fell in love with 'Star Trek' after J. J. Abrams's movie. I'm so into that.
