“Comedy scares me deeply because I think I saw Bottoms recently and I was in awe of how they do that,” Paul shared with Awards Watch. “That’s one of those I leave the cinema and I’m incredibly jealous and brightened of everybody’s talents involved with that film.”

He added, “But I think in the next five years I’m going to set myself a challenge to do maybe like a rom-com with Ayo or something like that would be cool.”
