Technically, my first paying job was I was an extra in my dad's movie 'Dan in Real Life.'

I don't have social media. I don't have Facebook or Instagram or Snapchat.

I did the plays in middle school. I was cast as a gate in my fourth grade play, and every year I got a bigger role. Then, in 7th grade, I played Smike in 'Nicholas Nickleby,' and the casting director saw me and asked me to audition for a movie. That movie led to me getting 'Moonrise Kingdom.'

Ultimately, I think what I want from my career is to be able to create work for myself, and there's only so much you can do as an actor in a movie.

I don't know what's in store for me, but I know that I want to create work, and I want to create an environment where I can bring in my favorite people and collaborate with them, and do something that is so much weirder and so different from what you'd see in commercial film.

I have allergic reactions: it triggers my gag reflex when I read unrealistic dialogue from a teenager.
