BSCkids recently got to chat with one of the stars of Nickelodeon’s “Henry Danger,” Sean Ryan Fox. He plays Jasper, Henry’s BFF since preschool. He’s silly, goofy, and never fails to cheer his best buds up. He talked with us about working on the series as well as his upcoming film debuts and life outside of acting!
Sean began working at just 8 years old and hasn’t stopped since. He booked two national commercials within the first couple of months auditioning and soon landed appearances on TV shows such as, ABC’s “Criminal Minds,” Disney XD’s “Kickin’ It” and KCAL 9’s” First Family” and now can be seen on Dan Schneider’s “Henry Danger” as Jasper. He also plays the lead role in the film David’s Dinosaur and he just recently completed the Sean McNamara directed film, Field of Lost Shoes with Jane Seymour and Malcolm McDowell.

Tell us about why “Henry Danger” is such a great show.
Its got tons of stunts and cool action, its funny, great cast and Captain Man is awesome
What has been your favorite episode of “Henry Danger” so far and why?
Jasper Danger, not just because i got to be Kid Danger, but because I had tons of fun on that episode and the apartment scene were so fun to shoot with Sedona Cohen (Monica) and Ryan Grassmeyer (Jeff)
Do you share any similarities with your character?
Yes, we both are playful, loving, and were both funny people
Do you have any funny stories you can share with us from set?
No, not without any spoilers
Does everyone get along together on the show?
We always hang out after run-throughs and we all go do stuff together after work.
Can you tell us about the film you recently finished “Field of Lost Shoes?”
I play the younger version of the lead who is a soldier and who happens to be the Govenor’s son in the South during the Civil War when they were fighting for slavery. When the South starts to lose, they send in the young Military Cadets to fight in the war when they were not prepared. This was based on true events and lives that died in the war and was really moving.
What is “David’s Dinosaur” about?
It is about a boy who lost his Dad and he and his mom move in to their Grandpa’s house to live. He Grandpa has a baby dinosaur egg that unexpectedly hatches and gets loose with a hunter chasing the baby. David must try and find the dinosaur and help rescue him from the hunter.
Do you prefer working on movies or television and why?
Movies, because you are at a different location and on set a lot more than on a tv show
What are your hobbies outside of acting?
I play the drums, i sing, i design characters, make comics, and I love to write scripts.
How do you find time to balance your acting career and doing normal kid stuff?
Right now, I really don’t get to do normal stuff, only on the weekends I can play on my PS4 with Friends or when we are on a break we might go to Universal or Disneyland.
What is your other favorite Nickelodeon show right now?
I really like Max and Shred, which is about to guys who have fun and are like brothers, similar to Drake & Josh.
Other than acting, what would be your second career choice?
Maybe baseball or designing and creating characters and scripts
Do you have any advice for kids who might want to get into acting?
Follow your dreams, just be you and make sure your having fun while you’re doing it, cause if acting isn’t fun to you then I becomes more of a job, than a fun career.
