When I was starting off and I was meeting casting people or directors there was always some comment that I wasn’t dangerous in any way. That’s not who I play. I want characters to be relatable. When somebody’s watching I want them to feel: ‘I know what that’s like, because I sense that in myself’, as opposed to thinking: ‘I don’t know how to do what this guy is doing.’
I have been naked in a lot of my movies. I just think there’s something inherently funny about the naked male body, particularly mine. Ryan Reynolds, sure, it makes sense why he’d strip down. But not me. I shouldn’t be allowed to do it.
My parents raised me to treat people the way you would want to be treated and to be polite. Sometimes, when I get nervous or insecure, I might overcompensate and might not be totally true to what I am feeling inside. But I get nervous and maybe too smiley and polite.
