A biography for Aidan Gallagherhasn’t been written yet.
“Anytime you approach a new season of any show it's fun because you have a newfound history with these characters.”
“With any second season, it's a tricky balance between keeping what fans loved and also making sure it feels new.”
“When you're in seeing someone like Ellen Page, and you're right then, it's just the two of you. You're locked in. There's this incredible subtlety and control of the actor who's sitting across from you that you're really required to step up your game.”
“I always had an idea of how Five should be and it was very funny to entertain that idea when I got an audition for it.”
“I don't know that I would say I've felt like a 58-year-old, but I've never felt exactly my age, or in the right place.”
“The United Nations is calling this the decade of action, from 2020 to 2030, because if we don't take immense action, there will be irreversible damage. If we don't, we are looking at an increasingly difficult world to survive in.”
“One of the things that interested me about Five was the trauma that was contributed via the apocalypse. I wanted to make sure that I got his PTSD correct.”
“Generally, when you prepare for a fight scene, you have a day before, where you're going through hours of choreography and getting comfortable with the different moves.”
“Five has always been this brilliant, very cunning, and weird little mind, so a number suited him, in a way, and he grew accustomed to it. The younger version of him is this bitter, not very sharing or necessarily caring person.”
“I know how much money goes into every minute of production and how many people are counting on me, so I don't ever want to be one to let anyone down.”
“I live in the same house as I did when I started acting. My life hasn't changed. Only people around me have changed with how they look at me.”
“That fight scene in episode two between Five, Hazel, and Cha-Cha at the department store was a lot of fun to shoot.”
“Because of social media today, the youth have more power in their hands than they've ever had.”
“Holden Caulfield would definitely be an interesting role, but I think there was some problem with the rights. As far as projects, I definitely would like to get into something like that.”
“I always look at the motives behind each scene. You can play that out tonally with how you express yourself or you can do that with your physical expression, your physical presence. So I always think about what physical presence I want to embody in each scene.”
“I get a lot of hate posting vegan, environment and pollution stuff.”
“I grew up a fan of comics and hanging out in local comic book stores, talking to the store manager and seeing what their favorites are.”
“With social media, some people are supportive and there are some haters and people who make fake accounts. It's out of my control.”
“As far as what part of myself I brought to Five, I've always considered myself not really my age.”
“When you are ten years old and people are screaming your name, trying to grab you at the Kids Choice Awards, and you go to the mall and groups of girls start following you around, it's very unreal and like a dream. I can't say I get used to it, it's always been a little freaky.”
