Quotes

• [on how he was cast in How to Be Single (2016)] Dakota Johnson reached out to me and said, 'Hey, do you want to play my boyfriend in this movie?' I would play her boyfriend in any movie. I love her as a person. I love working with her. I feel like we found a lot of nice little moments [on film], and sometimes it doesn't come as easy. But with her, it really does.
