Ryan Beil talks about life as an actor in Sad Mag‘s upcoming Issue 6 but you’ll have to wait until the launch party to see Monika Koch’s accompanying illustration. Here’s a sneak peek in the mean time:

Any opportunity to act is one Beil will happily take—with the exception of commercial characters that people will hate. “It was a spiced rum commercial, a classic ‘I’m a funny guy and I say something and then beautiful women are everywhere going woo!’” he explains. “It was just embarrassing, but at the same time, if MTV wanted to pay me ten million dollars to do the next American Pie movie, I would drop my pants. Life’s situational.”
