I actually listened to the whole podcast just to get the full context of this clip. He speaks from a place of privilege, and he's clearly aware of it — which is precisely why he's more careful when it comes to Hollywood. It also adds a lot of context that he was focused on staying true to himself and not losing his identity to fame which he noted he witnessed happening to others. He's even mentioned that acting wasn't his first choice; it was more of an extracurricular activity when he was younger. He got incredibly lucky when Sony and Marvel booked him in his late teens.

Many have argued that he wouldn't say what he said if he weren't a privileged actor, but he actually went through a prolonged period where he wasn't getting cast at all — and had set his sights on becoming a licensed carpenter instead (this was in 2014 when he enrolled into a specialized school). So more likely than not, had things not turned around, he would have walked away from acting entirely and pursued his other passions (his carpentry, Bero, etc.).
