I wasn't going to have fun doing a teen movie again.
The reason that you dance and sing is to make the audience feel like they're dancing and singing. As long as you're having fun with it and giving it 100 percent, they're gonna feel that.
I'm just not one of those naturally funny, relaxed actors who enjoy the spotlight and are so good at it.
I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away.
It was an opportunity not to take acting too seriously. We obviously weren't taking Casanova too seriously. Essentially we were borrowing his name and his legend and just having fun with it.
