Here is a question asked by Saturday Night Magazine:

Can you tell us a little bit about Emmett’s part in the story and how you approached the role?

Emmett is the loveable laughable big brother in the story. I love Emmett because he doesn’t care about most things and lives such a fun life but when trouble comes around he turns into the protective older brother and handles the threat. I feel like I am a lot like Emmett and used my experiences from growing up in the Midwest and having such a big family and I use that as I tap into Emmett.
