I didn't even have pierced ears. They put four holes in each ear, and, weirdly, that hurt the most.
One of the things that make our version that much more heartbreaking is that even though I am playing a 24-year-old I look much younger. I look like a child.
What bothers me about the whole trust-fund thing is that it sort of presumes that everything is handed to you. And if there is one thing about my family that I do identify with, it is that everyone is extremely hardworking.
The more people know about you, the less they can project who you are supposed to be. It's unfortunate that you really only get one shot at that.
I am one of 40 grandchildren. What bothers me about the whole trust-fund thing is that it sort of presumes that everything is handed to you. And if there is one thing about my family that I do identify with, it is that everyone is extremely hardworking.
Now I literally roll out of bed and put on whatever is there. I have really enjoyed being a boy this last year.
I've always had a respect for psychiatry as a profession.
I need a lot of alone time as a human. And especially on a movie set when you're around people all day long. So it's actually kind of nice to go home to a hotel and be alone and unwind.
I'm not at all funny. I can do dark comedy pretty well, but straight-up comedy, I don't know. I'm much darker. I've been like that since I was 3 years old
The motorcycle was the thing I really didn't want to do... 'You're going to be raped, be naked...' but as soon as he was like, 'You're going to have to ride a motorcycle,' I was like, 'Oh, really?'
I've made some really good friends from movies, but a lot of the time it's a very isolated experience that lives and dies during the production.
There were certainly things I was scared to do, but I never thought I wasn't up for the challenge
I don't know how to play the guitar, so having to be on stage in front of people doing something you don't really know how to do, it's terrifying.
I am very slow to warm. I've always been sort of a loner. I didn't play team sports. I am better one-on-one than in big groups
