college comedy casts
Even in college I tended to get cast in the comedies more. It was what I liked doing.
responsibility tone cameras
As the lead of a movie, you really set the tone off-camera as well, and that's a really big responsibility.
growing-up school nerd
Growing up, I was a very shy, wallflower type. I was not a nerd, but not popular. I was just invisible, like that person you probably didn't know you were in school with.
causes actors hard
Cause it's really hard, it's hard to be an actor.
lovers action horror
I also love horror movies; I like me a big Peter Berg action movie. I'm a movie lover in general.
moving school college
I didn't want to go to college. I wanted to move to Los Angeles right out of high school.
years way lists
I'm a lover of lists and five-year plans and Excel spreadsheets. Any way that I can have any control over the direction my life is going, I gravitate towards that.
comedy type backgrounds
I don't have any type of sketch-comedy or stand-up background.
running stars real
I don't have real big aspirations to be a movie star. I would love to be on a long-running hit TV show. You end up playing a defining role.
stupid thinking luck
Be willing to work for nothing in things you think are stupid. Make work for yourself. Make your own luck. Don't complain. Hopefully, the work will find you if you are ready.
art college littles
I went to a little liberal-arts college in Missouri called Truman State University.
brother fun kids
The Farrelly brothers make movies the way you imagine a movie set would be when you're a kid - fun all the time.
eight television months
Sometimes doing a movie for a short period of time is better than committing eight months to a television show.
philosophy parent balance
I'm a believer in the parent first, friend second philosophy, and trying to find that balance.
