Gianni Paolo is a promising young actor who is making his big screen debut in the new horror film Ma, opening in theaters May 31.

The 23-year-old actor opened up to JustJared.com for a 10 Fun Facts feature, in which he revealed how he actually encountered co-star Octavia Spencer while working a catering job one year before they were on set filming the new movie.

Gianni also told us about his career aspirations and his guilty pleasures. Check it out:

• 1. I once rolled my car on an icy bridge and survived. That was one of 3 near death experiences I’ve had. Sorry to get all dark right off the bat like that but now you’re interested!!
• 2. The first time I was ever on a set, I was an extra in Woody Allen‘s Irrational Man starring Joaquin Phoenix and Emma Stone. I had to ride a rollercoaster in a carnival scene for two hours. I threw up. A lot. I recently ran into Joaquin again while he was filming Joker in NY (I was filming Power on the same lot). Luckily, he did not remember me.
• 3. I’ve played hockey for almost 20 years (since I was two!). I was drafted in the Quebec Major Hockey League and still play twice a week in Los Angeles when I’m not filming!
• 4. In February of 2017, I was working a catering job in Los Angeles at various locations. One of the jobs just so happened to be on the Sony Lot for a charity event. I remember serving food to the cast of Riverdale and 13 Reasons Why (both shows I had read for) and being so miserable. This event was hosted by Octavia Spencer. Exactly 365 days later, I was on set alongside her filming a movie.
• 5. My guilty pleasure is the Twilight series. Team Edward or die.

Octavia Spencer walks the red carpet at the premiere of her new movie Ma on Thursday night (May 16) at the Regal LA Live in downtown Los Angeles.

The Oscar-winning actress was joined at the event by her co-stars Allison Janney, Juliette Lewis, Diana Silvers, Corey Fogelmanis, McKaley Miller, Kyanna Simone Simpson, Gianni Paolo, Dante Brown, and Tanyell Waivers.

Director Tate Taylor was there as well. He previously worked with Octavia and Allison on The Help!

“@csiriano thanks for this amazing look that only you can do so effortlessly. #MaMovie,” Octavia wrote on her Instagram account.

FYI: Octavia is wearing a Christian Siriano outfit. Allison is wearing an Antonio Berardi dress and Hearts On Fire earrings.

Octavia Spencer is an amazing actress and her latest role in Ma is showing off a whole different side to her acting chops!

The Oscar winner stars as Sue Ann, a loner who keeps to herself in her quiet Ohio town. One day, she is asked by Maggie, a new teenager in town (Diana Silvers), to buy some booze for her and her friends, and Sue Ann sees the chance to make some unsuspecting, if younger, friends of her own. She offers the kids the chance to avoid drinking and driving by hanging out in the basement of her home. But there are some house rules: One of the kids has to stay sober. Don’t curse. Never go upstairs. And call her “Ma.” But as Ma’s hospitality starts to curdle into obsession, what began as a teenage dream turns into a terrorizing nightmare, and Ma’s place goes from the best place in town to the worst place on earth.

Juliette Lewis, Luke Evans, Missi Pyle, McKaley Miller, Corey Fogelmanis, Gianni Paolo, and Dante Brown also star in the film, in theaters on May 31.
