It’s all about the experience that with the people you’re making this movie with. And I think we go on journeys in our lives where we find ourselves, and in a state Spider-Man, I think I realized, “Hey, you know, acting is really fun. you know what? enjoy it! The people here are amazing! Enjoy them and enjoy life around you because life goes by so fast. “

That was actually the least problematic thing in that episode.”
