The 28-year-old actor spoke to the Daily Mail about how the industry can make itself more accessible, particularly to those who have autism. “Most autistic artists that I know need some sort of support,” he told the British tabloid in late December. “I definitely need that,” he added. “What that support is depends on the person. Clarity is important, if we don’t understand certain things, it’s important to clarify.”

He adds that he usually finds it difficult to understand people when they talk over each other or when “everyone is talking at once”.

“Some autistic artists are super sensitive to noise … Maybe providing a place where the artists could have some quiet space, like a room where someone could go take a break with them, that’d be good,” he said. He suggested keeping fidget spinner toys on sets for autistic artists. “It’s something that autistic people use if they can’t keep their hands still,” he explained. “But because everyone’s different, the best thing to do would be to find out each person’s needs beforehand, if possible,” he said.
