Drake Wants to Be on the Big Screen

Drake recently sat down for an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, where he revealed his Hollywood aspirations. Here's what he had to say:

On his first foray into acting at the age of 15:
"Obviously, everything's for a reason. I met this kid whose dad was an agent. I got the audition for Degrassi. And I started going to a school for kids with outside commitments [in the arts and sports]. I met a lot of people from a different [more economically diverse] side of the city. My friends changed at that point, and I started coming into my own and finding myself."

On feeling more at home in Canada:
"I can get in the car in Toronto and drive and go do my own thing. I know the streets. I know everywhere. I know everyone."

On his musical future:
"I'm sure I'll stop [making music] one day. When it starts to feel like I'm making it up. Hopefully I'll catch it before I ever get there, right? But right now it feels like we just started, so I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. But I do plan on expanding — to take six months or a year to myself and do some great films. Music's always there."

On his current favorite show:
"My taste in television or movies is always kind of similar to my approach to music, which is, I like when people really hit the nail on the head with real human emotions. So with Ozark, it's just the family dynamic. The arguments. The love. The struggles. I really relate to how accurate it is."
