Lewis recently told DAZN: ‘I want to be the best. In everything I do, I want to be. I would love to act one day, but I am very conscientious. I like to learn step by step.
‘I had opportunities and I know that I need time to prepare myself, because I want to be the best. In everything I do, I want to be. To do the best I can.
He added: ‘If I’m going to make a movie, I’ll go to class, study, and make sure I express my emotions as I should.’
