Fans might think Ryan's role of playing a lorno star would be a dream come true, but the actor says it was actually tough to shoot.

"Ya know, Matt, no. I had higher expectations for myself early on in life," Ryan said when asked if the scene was a dream come true. "That was a tough scene to shoot, I must say. It was the one day I invited my family to set because I don't look at the scheduling of events. I swear to you I did. Yes, I did."

"That is not right," Jason said shaking his head. "That is not right."

"The bulb is dim," Ryan said. "They were there, and they watched it. And I watched my mother actually pass away."
