And my name is Sam in honor of Samuiz Gamjji - there is also such a "Lord of the Rings", if you did not know. Apparently, my parents were hippie, "Hughang shared.
In an interview with 2014, Just Jared Sam also told that his parents were very fond of the Universe Tolkina: "My mom and dad were big fans of the" Lord of the Rings ", they even had a group called Gandolf's Garden. My father called me Samuiz, and my brother - Kirch, in honor of one elf. "
Also in this interview with Sam noted that since childhood was distinguished by a rich imagination and there was a lot of adolescence alone, which partly predetermined his acting career: "I had few friends at school, I studied in the classroom, where there were only four man. I spent a lot of time alone and went to my imagination. And it clearly pushed me to the actor. "
