After leaving ImageMovers, I sold two pitches to Fox Atomic, which I then wrote for them.

Losing a parent over eight years is a very dark journey. I spent the first four years feeling bad and angry and sorry for myself.

I went to film school, so I certainly know how to make things quickly and cheaply. But at the same time, I have the experience of working with Steve Starkey for three years. I watched him produce some gigantic movies.

I love comedy, and I think that's sort of what comes naturally to me.

One of the biggest misconceptions about me is that I'm a comedian, which I'm not. A comedian is someone who can stand up in front of an audience and make you laugh. I've never done stand-up and I never will. I'm a comic actor. My comedy comes through my characters.

I'm drawn to a good story, really, as I hope most people are. For me, it's the story that's going to stay with you eventually, not necessarily the genre. I go to watch a film because of the story, not because it was a Western or a comedy.

I work very hard on motivating everything I do as an actor. Explosive moments have to be completely motivated; whether they're explosive comedy or explosive horror, they have to come organically out of a scene and an interaction with another actor.

Comedy’s the only job I say where you wake up and you’re like 'Can’t do it!'
