• I am an older brother. I have a four year old little brother who runs the house.
• I’m from Louisiana. Home of Southern hospitality & good eats. One of my favorite meals is my grandmother’s gumbo.

• I love dogs. Still waiting to get one……….if you see my parents can you let them know for me.
• I’m all about Family & Fashion. Family is extremely important to me and I love Fashion. Getting dressed up for an event is one of my favorite things to do.
• Being on Disney has always been a dream of mine! I almost shed a tear when I did the wand ID for the first time
• I love doing art, sketching, drawing, and just being creative
• I enjoy joking around & making people laugh. It’s good for the soul!
• I have the best TV family ever. We really have a great time together!!
• I love watching scary movies but then I can’t sleep afterwards and always regret watching them.

Christian J. Simon is one of the four young stars of Disney Channel’s Sydney To The Max who you’ll fall in love with.

The 11-year-old actor chatted with JustJaredJr.com ahead of the premiere and opened up about his repertoire with Jackson Dollinger, his character Leo, and more. Check it:

On Leo’s friendship with young Max: “Leo and Max are best friends. The funny part is they are total opposites, but it works for them! Leo likes to play it safe and Young Max is the rebel! Leo is constantly trying to keep Young Max from doing something that will get them both in trouble. At the end of the day, they always have each other’s back and they definitely know how to have a good time together!”

On his character Leo: “I love Leo’s dedication to whatever he is involved with. He gives everything his all. Whether it’s running the arcade, schemes he and Max come up with, or being the best student he can be, Leo remains dedicated to his causes.”

On the the funniest situation that Leo and Max find themselves in on the show: “Funniest? There’s way too many to name. If I had to pick one, it would probably be the time Leo and Max sneak to see a movie that his mom does not want them to see. It’s hilarious watching them try to ‘game plan,’ and the outcome of it all is the best! Totally busted.”

Sydney To The Max premieres Friday, January 25th on Disney Channel.
