And then, I got a call about a week after I had submitted my tape, just saying, "They really like you and want to screen test you. " So, I flew to L. A. and did the screen test. And then, I met Elijah [Wood] and did a screen test with him. And then, I had a very nerve-wracking few days back home, waiting and waiting and thinking, "This cannot possibly go my way because that would just be too good to be true. " And then, it did.
