bottom of the shoe wow and did you wear the holes into those shoes yep wow wow yep I had them brand new and I rocked them so [Music] much I remember doing a play when I was really young like the first play I ever did called the talls when I was 15 and religiously like not reading the reviews and just thinking this will affect my state of mind during the show and then the play ended and I was like okay I'm going to I'm going read and there was like three and I was like oh I could have read these affect me at all there was a strange one when I was doing press and I was in Japan for a second and I flew back to LA and then somebody called me and said what happened in Japan oh no and well there's a headline that says that you knocked out Ezra Miller in Japan or something and completely untrue I've never met them I I yeah so that was it was one of those that you just don't know where that kind of stuff comes from yeah that's yeah crazy stuff like crazy yeah thankfully that wasn't true at all [Music] canteen with water in it that's so smart y one of them backpacks with the yeah yeah camel back yeah umbrella maybe an umbrella for the Sun for the sun okay I was like wait the one thing you really don't me rain boots rain boots a rain jacket no yeah umbrella for the sun umbrella for the Sun a tent maybe sunscreen yeah sand castle making materials sand castle making material Rane Rane for fade ra yeah Handle With Care Handle With Care fragile fragile fragile inside yeah what's one role I wish I had audition for I think back to something like East of Eden you know oh yeah that really impacted me at a young age that how did you see that so young you just found it my dad watched tons of old films he always had turn the classic movies on we'd watch a movie every night and do you have one that you think of that you I'm sure as you can relate there was a point in my career where I felt like I wasn't getting you'd see a young man in something and go well I didn't I didn't even have a crack get close to that yeah I remember asking you and Christopher Walkin because I was so scared Christopher Walkin just said just read the Q cards yeah that's good actually so I mean that was it does take a lot more than that but that's what he told me I mean I remember the first time doing that there's so much lore around it everyone sort of has a piece of advice that's done it or works there and I was very receptive to that because you want to soak it all in I remember halfway through the first time I did it going oh this is like doing theater and I could have been on my heels more and then this time right before I went out I was feeling nervous and I noticed that Woody harelson had written did he say this to you or that Woody harson wrote uh I'm terrified right now right next to they put Woody harelson and I read that right before and was like oh man that makes you feel good yeah it's like all right I'm not the only one that's so comforting to know that everybody else feels that fear so nice yeah yeah it always depends on the person you're playing when you kind of bring stuff around you I mean usually a script I have that with all my notes in it and that's sort of totem of all the homework that you've done to get you to that point do you have something to yours bring to no h uh you know actually headphones headphones yeah that's a great [Music] yeah I really don't have one I mean I try to use moisturizer now I've read the articles the younger you start the better it is in the long run I'm of the perhaps incorrect scientific opinion that the more your body gets used to something you know if you take it away if ever there's the apocalypse you don't want to break out you don't want to break out doing the apocalypse I also don't really have a skincare routin you know sometimes put some oil on the face get a good oil nice I always feel luxurious when I do that nice but I don't do it all the time okay just on special yeah just on special occas special occasion if I wasn't an actor I'd like to be a chef it's fun cuz it feels feels like art but you're creating it for somebody else to enjoy and find meditator for sure nice yeah what about you what would you if you weren't an actor if I wasn't an actor I would definitely be a lice picker seriously yeah I've said it before it's like I was I was not expecting you to say that I'm like half joking but my mom you know showed me that in first grade and said like what do you want to be grow up and that was the thing I put but I guess cuz a lot of kids to break out in my school and I was either this yeah yeah or or that yeah wow I find creative inspiration from about just about anything you know and everything I think the feeling I get from creative inspiration or seeing good movies or or listening to good music I I trust that in my life more than just about anything the feeling I get from being inspired it's like it's the backbone of my life it is but when you feel that you just lean in and you just follow your curios and curiosity is such a good word because I talk about that a lot death of curiosity is the death of imagination and um as you get older all right here I am on my Brooklyn Hipster high chair but like um as you get older like it's all the incentive is all there just to start tuning off the Curiosity to get in your habits that's naturally I heard this thing the other day we talk about being up on a high chair but aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort how you can get so used to the same things and want the same things and not listen to new music and and watch the same show and just kind of make your life as comfortable as possible it's been the proudest moment of my career so far I think back to doing my first play in Los Angeles and my mom was in the audience and looking down and seeing her and that was so special and you know being in can for the first time and my dad had never been outside the country wow we hadn't seen each other yet and he he had just arrived and I I look at my father and he's on the carpet in a tuxedo in can I just thought this is so surreal and I can't believe that's the first time you saw him in France first time I saw him in France and he and he'd never been out of the country and it was so special that is that was really cool yeah do you have a moment that sticks out to you was the most it was at Sundance and I the movie ended and this will sound ridiculous cuz I was young I was like 21 but I was like oh man finally I feel like and again now it sounds ridiculous to Mez I'm like man I was so young but at that moment I felt like I would had been really just like uh searching for something that would resonate and if you're not a writer or a director and you're just an actor it's like the delivery of that sort of Beyond you all you really have is your energy and your ambition in some way and your Artistry and your vulnerability so all those other things the completion of the movie the editing let alone how it's received let alone what festivals it gets into it was so beyond me so to feel like that and then in different ways the positive ways over see I just like exhaled in a huge way and felt like all right trust your yeah trust your trust your thanks so much for watching and be sure to check out Dune part [Music] two [Music]
