You know, I'm not in a hurry, and everybody else in Hollywood - particularly agents and managers - they're all in a hurry.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most of the film directors expect their actors to want to work fast.
Hollywood is a fast-paced, competitive world.
Much of the time, as an actor, you sit around waiting. Most of your life and career, you're waiting for your agent or your manager to call you.
Most actors will tell you that it takes a while to figure out what you want to be because we just want to do everything we see on TV and don't know that 'actor' is a job yet.
There's always the ongoing actor frustration of finding the great role to do next. I don't go to work a lot. I wait as long as I can until the money runs out or a great part comes along.
There's just such a premium on hurrying, and the camera is the be all and end all, and the actors had better hurry up and get it right and get it done.
In this day and age, you need a lot of patience if you are in the movie business.
For most of my life, I've been in a hurry.
I love working fast. I don't relish the director who wants to do 25 to 30 takes, or the actors who insist on doing 25 or 30 takes.
In Hollywood, a lot of times when something is in development, it just takes a lot of time.
