Spielberg picked up on Ehrenreich's acting skills when he watched a comedy video that his daughter took of a sketch that he wrote at their friend's Bat Mitzvah. Speilberg was impressed at the young boy's humorous ability, so he kept tabs on him until he was old and experienced enough to hit the big screen.
