    Hi 👋

    Have you ever felt behind in life compared to your peers? If so, how did you deal with it?

    I grew up in Pasadena near Texas city where you and Sean filmed red rocket. I was really amazed by the way the oil refineries were captured and made to look so dreamy and beautiful as I was always mesmerized by them as a child.

    My question is did the refineries hold the same power for you and what was your impression of filming the movie in Texas city

  3. Hey Simon! I loved your performance in Red Rocket, and have always found you to be wildly entertaining and engaging on screen.

    Is there any movie adaptation you would love to see, and possibly be a part of? Like a book, comic, video game etc.

    Related question, do you have any dream role?

    Thanks!

  4. Hey Simon. Glad to see you around. I met you in Steamboat Springs during the Winter Lodge. What was it like when MTV laid you off after two years?
