00:00So I got there and they were like
00:05Congratulations, you know welcome and I was like
00:24I am a Chilean
00:28Texan California New Yorker, it sort of turned me into somebody who can be anywhere
00:39I wanted to be an actor my whole life. I grew up in a very moviegoing family
00:57Oh
01:11Wow, sorry, no, I wasn't looking
01:14Something that's resurfaced is a lot of appearances that you've done on TV shows
01:17Sarah Michelle Gellar posted about you being on Buffy. Sarah Michelle Gellar posted about me. Yes, I
01:24Need to get I need to get on the world wide web
01:33There's a lot of nostalgia for the moments of getting a guest starring or
01:38episodic role on on some of these shows that felt
01:43life
01:44Changing or at least life-saving as far as rent was concerned in certain instances
01:53I
02:21Think that there's a fascination
02:23to the stranger-than-fiction
02:25aspect of it the human stories that can be told the unexpected heroism and just the
02:31largeness of these kinds of stories

03:33Am grew up watching Nicolas Cage movies
03:36I really did and probably know more about Nicolas Cage than the guys that wrote the movie
03:41I think there were even some instances where I knew more about a movie Nick made than he did
03:53I
03:56Just don't understand why do you make sparkly fast romantic montages of me every single day like this
04:06Do you ever look at Instagram accounts devoted to you being a heartthrob when you're feeling down? Yes, I do
04:23I
04:30What if anything did you take from set
04:34props yeah or
04:37trauma I mean
04:39Emotionally I could tell you a lot of things that I took
04:42But I don't think I took any props to do and steal anything. No. I want I really want a knife
04:47I didn't take anything some some gray hair. This is natural now. I've never seen a career like this
04:52I have nothing to do with it. Yes, you do
04:55How do you pick shows that are gonna do or the door door opens, and you're like no way
