Midnight Sun, a romantic drama that opens nationwide this week, is giving its main cast a chance to break out and expand. With this Bella Thorne delivers her first solid dramatic performance. Patrick Schwarzenegger proves himself in a leading role and Rob Riggle switches from playing "comedy jerks" to being a nice single father who has to watch out for a daughter with a very peculiar condition. The actor sat down with Entertainment Affair to discuss the challenges of a drama and why this character is special to him.

#MidnightSunMovie opens in theaters March 23.
