Erik: Dewey's character is very... I would say... interesting. But am I like my character? No, not really. Actually, Dewey is actually a little bit cooler than Erik.
Erik: I would like to do something with action. An action movie... that would be cool!
Erik: It's not really that hard to stand in front of the cameras. It's pretty easy. It's fun. Sometimes you feel like: "Some people call this work! It?s fun". It's not really that difficult having all the cameras pointing at you. Maybe if you're doing a close-up. It all depends.
Erik: I love meeting fans. It is cool to know what do the others think about you.
