Personal Quote:

I was a horrible athlete. My parents are athletes; they tried me to get me to do that, but I just couldn't. I sucked. First I wanted to be a scientist, and I set our bathroom on fire. Then I wanted to be a basketball player and I'm a not-very-tall white, Russian Jewish kid. So that didn't work out either. See more »

Trivia:

Had auditioned for Peter Parker/Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic in Fantastic Four (2015). Both based on Marvel Comics heroes that are reboots. See more »
