"American Pie" actor Seann William Scott says making a career in comedy genre was never his ambition.

The 40-year-old actor shot to fame as Steven Stifler in the hit "American Pie" franchise and since the first movie was released back in 1999, Scott has starred in a number of successful comedy movies, reported Contactmusic.

"I'm actually starting a movie, 'Green Dolphin', though that's my first drama. When I first moved to LA to be an actor it never occurred to me to do comedies. I didn't even really watch comedies.

"I grew up watching Hal Ashby movies and Kubrick and, just dark. And then I did 50 "American Pie" movies," Scott says.
 

The actor, however, feels his journey in Hollywod has been incredible.

"I feel like I've won the lottery. I'm a huge film fan, so the fact that I've been able to have a career making films is pretty incredible.

"I felt like the luckiest kid in the world on 'American Pie', and every movie I've done since I've gotten luckier.
