Pete Davidson’s resume boasts accolades including standup comedian, actor, writer, and arm candy—but the 28-year-old comedian rarely strays far from his roots. The actor found time between White House dinners, his SNL day job, prepping for his new Peacock comedy Bupkis, and shooting cheeky commercials for a new H&M campaign to answer a few questions for Interview. Here, Davidson tells us what movies he knows by heart, who he stalks, and what he does when no one’s watching (hint: it involves Sebastian Stan).
