In some ways you become who you really are, if you work hard enough on who you wish to be.
I showed up in L.A. with $500 and a backpack and I stayed at a shelter, so nobody handed me anything. I worked for every single thing that I have.
It was a real honor to be able to work with someone like that that I've been watching since I was a kid. I mean, to play his brother left some people scratching their heads but something about it really worked.
I was never interested in 'Teen Beat' like roles. I just wanted to work.
