Its not a lame-ass love story that they try to put into everything, he continues. Harry doesnt get pussy, like, once. Its great. He doesnt change his fuckin haircut or dye his hair like they do in Divergent. It all fuckin sucks.

Comedy is the other passion in Davidsons life, and hell be embarking on his first national stand-up tour this summer. He cites Bill Burr and Dave Chappelle as heroes who have also become his friends. Thats my favorite thing out of everything, he says. I started because of them, and now I get to talk to them a little bit. Its pretty cool!

Bill Hader, another of his heroes, helped launch the young comics career, introducing him to Lorne Michaels thatled to a successful audition for the long-running show. I owe him everything, Davidson says of his Trainwreck co-star. With his job, one of the perks has been meeting the guests. You get to hang out, with like, Miley Cyrus for a week. Its pretty cool.
