growing-up reading character
I didn't really want to be an actor when I was growing up - I wanted to be whatever I was reading about or seeing at the time.

Growing up the son of a director has made me very aware of the various turns that a directing career can take. Sometimes your films turn out exactly as you want. Sometimes they don't.
