And the moment that changed his life.


When he was younger,Andy Favreau,Now, 33 years old, had great projects for a career in the application of the law, but all it took was a work of an office in a hinged cabin to send him a barrel west in the World acting world. Some classes, some background scenes and a background later, and it's a rising star on the point of appearing in theMindy Kaling-productChampion and oppositeJason Biggs In the Christmas movieAngel angry,on Freeform. Not bad for a child in Boston.

We caught Andy Favreau for a vast discussion on the key to buying superb Christmas gifts, which it's like the 12th most famousVirgin on the internet named Andy and what it is to pay special attention in a family that includes the brotherJon Favreau, The former speech speech forPresident Obamaand co-host massivelyPopular podcast Pod saves America.

Angel angel is a Christmas movie. What do you hope for Christmas?

Now that I get older, I do not have anyChristmas list more. I tell my parents to forget clothes because I'm so particular. Just gift cards. Everyone will be happy. And then I do not need to go to the store and return things the next day Christmas with all other crazy people.

What is the key to giving a good gift?

Do not go out on a member. You must know the person and know what they want. Will not do something crazy. My first step usually consists in entering the Apple Store, see what this person does not have Apple and get it for them. It's usually infallible. There is always something new on Apple.

So, everyone you know is to get an iPhone X?

Well, it's a little steep. Maybe wirelesslisteners. I should have clarified: Go to the Apple Store, then go to the service accessories. [Laughs]

Your bio says you have the perfect trifecta: talent, beautiful chopped appearance and a charismatic personality. What is your best trait?

I do not know how a person can becharismatic But I think I'm a very friendly guy. I find it easy to meet new people. If you are on a new set or a new project, even if you are at your wish, I make a point to get up and introduce. It makes you less nervous. I am quite interesting and I can become friendly with people easily.

This seems to be good life advice in general.

He is. But it's hard. We are learned early in the company only when you work to leave the main actors alone. You must make sure that you do not have this mentality as you grow up in your career. This is not the way to go there. If you are regular on the show or a member of the main distribution, I think you want to get the family of cast iron together as quickly as possible.

Champion It looks like it would be a fun set.

It's going to be fantastic. We have just shot the pilot and we have nine episodes of more films. It's a dream job: a comedy half an hour working withKaling MindyandCharlie Grandy, who created it. They are two of the most impressive, funny and intelligent people of the company. I'm also starting to work withAnders Holm ofWorkaholics, who plays my brother. Scripture is great. The cast iron is super-knit. This is very fun.

Have you thought of getting out of acting?

No, that's it. I do not know what else I would even. It's funny that I say that now because I have never thought of being an actor. I went to college and graduate studies to study criminal justice. I thought I was going to enter criminal justice. Somewhere along the way I took an interim class and I realized that maybe I wanted to play a cop onTV instead of real life. I went fully steam: from Boston to the, and I have been here for about six years now.

How did this transition take place? Was it really easy?

Just after grad school, I had a job for the state. It was a work of nine to five. You quickly realize that the session at a cabin is either life for you or not. For me, it was not. I needed a creative point of view in my life. I had thought of acting in the past but not seriously.

While I was sitting at the office, I started taking a class of actors in Boston. I realized that I loved him and that I was good at that. I got involved in everything I could in Boston at the time. Some films arrived in Boston because there was a strong tax break at the time, so I involved in substantive work and short films. I got my SAG card and I moved to the.

On a less serious note, Camousbirthdays.com lists you like the most popular 12th Virgin named Andy. It sounds very good.

It's rather good. I hope for a year from now, I can bang that up to six or seven.

Have you ever gave Jon tips when he wrote Obama speeches?

It's crazy. I am here interim and I have fun on sets and I am paid for it, and I look at my brother, who has such serious work at the White House. It's like ", should I do something more serious? What do I do to change the world today?"

I have always lifted up my older brother. He found success and I always wanted to succeed like him. It gives me this conduct to catch up and be the favorite son of the family.

How's it going?

Good. We'll see what happens. Once this show goes out, I could overcome it.

Television programs are much colder than podcasts.

Exactly exactly.
