I had the best time filming it. This is the most fun film that I had ever had in my work.“I am not just saying it. I really mean it. Mainly because we went in a lot of beautiful, fun locations to film it. We were in a boat. We were in the Pacific Ocean, We were in a town called Marina del Rey.“The dialogue in the script was very fun to say.

There are also a lot of aspects into Travis’s character that I personally couldn’t relate to as Kyle.“So I needed to do some preparations in that to try to get into his head and to his heart.
