"All the time. But then you reflect on it all," Rob explained. "I had an experience when I did a Harry Potter film years ago, it was just when I was starting to realize that I wanted to be an actor, even though, I had all ready finished three movies by that point."

"But, I remember being in Tokyo and looking out the window and kind of this Tokyo skyline, I just sort of realized, I could reflect on what had happened in my life and I was kind of in awe of what road I had taken kind of by accident," he shared. "It’s good to have perspective."

And has Rob ever had a crush in real life like the one his character has on Reese in the film?

"In terms of looking at girls and being mesmerized by them, I guess it happens…you don’t really think about the risks when you’re falling for someone, you just go for it," he said.

"You can say me," Reese interrupted. "Don’t be embarrassed. I’m sitting right here, but it’s okay."

"Yes!" Rob exclaimed. "Reese is so nice and normal. She is so cool and a great mom. And I was actually supposed to not be memorized in the script. It just happened!"

"I was giving it out," Reese explained.
