I like watching her slowly start to give in. I thought that was really really fun, and really, really nourishing for me as an actor to do,&quot; she said.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Cole Sprouse and Lana Condor.

The film&#x27;s tagline &#x27;Find the space to connect&#x27; resonates with the actor because of his own dream of making an impact in his work and life.</p><p>&quot;When I was a kid, I wanted to be an astronaut. I also wanted to climb Everest,&quot; Sprouse noted. &quot;When I was a kid, I mean, my big dream was, for many years, pushing human history forward in the right direction. And so I studied archaeology for a long time to try and do that. And I sort of realized that the arts can do the same thing. I think the arts are a really healing part of the human discussion. So now it&#x27;s really just about having a life well-lived within the arts and trying to make an impact and speak to people who will listen.&quot;</p><p>&#x27;Moonshot&#x27; hits HBO Max on March 31, 2022.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aqCDt9M0r_g?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div>
