I think a lot of young kids at school are very conscious of trying to keep credibility in case they kind of stand out in a crowd and get bullied by trying to stay cool and stuff. And my whole thing, all the way through school, was I was just a goof... I didn't care.

I think deep down I've always wanted to be an actor. It was the one thing in school that I was undoubtedly enthusiastic about and good at. I coasted along being good at German, Geography, English and football but there wasn't anything that I could really call my thing, my niche.

If you look at little kids and wild animals, these are two groups of things that whenever I'm with them forces me to be in the moment.

We're not selling the need for the high school. We're selling the credibility of the project itself ... which has taken a tremendous beating in the past.

Being an actor's about imagination and you have to keep extending your imagination.
