Kenan Thompson Says an Ice Skating Scene Once Tested His Acting Career

Kenan Thompson, who stars on "Saturday Night Live," told The Hollywood Reporter that one early role tested his commitment to acting more than any other part he took on. The role required him to learn how to ice skate for a hockey film, and he said the difficulty of it nearly led him to step away from acting altogether. Thompson was younger at the time, still finding his footing in the industry. He shared the memory in a new interview looking back on his career.
