I always felt like comedy was the most fun way in. And also I always knew I wanted to be an actor. I remember seeing Bugsy Malone. I saw a bunch of kids do Bugsy Malone when I was that age. I was about eight. I think it was at the National Youth Theatre. It blew my tiny mind that they were doing it.

One of my favorite movies of all time is 'Bugsy Malone.' A lot of people haven't seen it. With Scott Baio and Jodie Foster… I saw it when I was a kid and I think it has a special place in my heart, but it's one of the weirdest, out-there films ever. It's this crazy [film with] children playing adults, but also lip-syncing. It's also a musical, and people are being killed by [guns that shoot] whipped cream.
