Kian Lawley Discusses Favorite Foods, Acting Inspirations, ‘Zac & Mia’ Character In Tumblr Q&A

To celebrate AwesomenessTV‘s latest drama series, Zac & Mia, which was first announced in March and bows today on Verizon‘s Go90, co-star Kian Lawley took to Tumblr to participate in one of the platform’s Answer Time Q&A sessions this afternoon.

Zac & Mia, based on the novel by A.J. Betts, tells the story of two teenagers who bond while undergoing cancer treatment. Lawley headlines the series alongside actress Anne Winters, and fellow influencer Alexis G. Zall stars as Zac’s sister. During his first-ever Answer Time session, Lawley discussed his preferred breakfast food (omelettes and waffles), the performer that has most influenced his career (Jim Carrey), and his dream pet (an okapi).

Lawley, 22, also shared that he and his character, Zac, have many similar qualities, and answered thusly when asked what he would most like to change about the world if given any opportunity: “Clean drinking water for everyone, because you’re supposed to drink it to sustain life. Clean water is something we take for granted.”

You can check out the full Q&A right here, as well as the trailer for Zac & Mia below. Lawley has a slew of other roles on tap, including for the horror feature Monster Party, the AT&T Hello Lab series Guilty Party, and a feature adaptation of the young adult novel The Hate U Give.
