Congratulations on this movie.

I mean, this is way Haven't seen you in a carpet in quite some time.

Yeah, you know, it's definitely this was actually a movie that, you know, came along and during a time of self reflection and kind of trying to really evaluate my life like I want to have a lead on this movie was really about those kinds of things.

Like, how do we overcome difficulties?

How do we make ourselves better?

How do we do know?

Be who we kind of want to be?

And, you know, I have a lot of experience with falling short summers.

I wish I hadn't done that.

Or I wish I had got back to that person or I wish I had not failed in this or that way.

And I tend to be kind of hard on myself.

And I saw this movie, the scripts, you know, really, really inspiring something that says yes, life can be difficult, but yes, also, you can get past it.

In this case, A big part of that is working with these young boys mentoring them, and that is a coach.

I get much from them as I kind of gift basket bust up respond.

The dramatic stuff was really, really fun to play as an actor, you know, I had gotten into playing, doing a lot of effects.

Based, bigger budgets are green screen tennis balls, dots in the face.

This was just like real people in their real lives.

There was one scene in particular where you I mean, you kind of broke down a little bit.

Can you kind of take me through that scene and what it was like for you and kind of what triggered that emotion?

Um, yeah, there's there's some definitely emotional stuff in this, and I've always seen that, as you know, party jobs and actors.

To reach those to reproduce genuinely is genuinely as possible, you know, imagined characters and imagine circumstances.

And so for me, I work with some actors who can like talking to you about the weather and craft service.

And so they go action and boom, they're trying.

And they're like, Oh, my God, how did this happen?

And, uh, you know, then I also for me, that's not how it works.

I need to, and I always kind of saw that this is a way that I've kind of grown as an actor, which has to do with sort of actually being able to This sounds very like self help you.

But just be aware of my own feelings.

Contact.

Be able to feel the entire range of my own emotions.

I can't do that.

I can't do that on screen on the more I've kind of been able to do that more been able to express those.

And, you know, it requires kind of like getting yourself into an emotional state building up.

Okay, we're ready to shoot.

You're in that state, that's that's you.

And you know, I need to get it kind of right in that zone.

And then it's sort of peters out and and and you know, But there's an exhilarating kind of thrill to that because, you know, like a big emotional scenes coming up and you really want to get it right, and so when you do, it's actually it looks like you're upset.

You're crying, but there's actually kind of feel like you're in the end zone.

You feel like a touchdown, So how would you rate your own basketball skills?

Four.

Very poor That's why you know what?

You don't see me dunk from the ball.

Shooting the ball doesn't lead by example.

Just touched to do as I say, Not as I do.

Congratulations.

Good to see you again.
