Nothing is harder than working with an actor who doesn't take it seriously or show up in the same way that you are.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As an actor, sometimes you've gotta take the jobs that you may not want to do. It's so hard to work as an actor.
The hardest thing as an actor is that you work really hard constantly for these roles, and you invest so much in it. And when they don't come to fruition and nobody sees them, there's a part of you that dies a little bit. It's like, 'Ah! But I worked so hard!' But that's the business.
Some actors are supposed to be very difficult, but I've not found that to be the situation.
People don't know and they shouldn't know that you work incredibly hard as an actor.
I know that some actors take acting terribly seriously. I take it seriously in that if someone pays me to do it I know I have to deliver.
The hardest thing about being an actor, for me, is that if you are the 0.00001% of individuals who wants to do it, you're a freak. And you're an assertive freak. Though actors are often shy, there's this tremendous assertive extroversion in you somewhere.
I've met actors where you think, if only you could just clean up your act and get it together, people would want to work with you. Some people are so difficult, it's just not worth working with them.
All good actors are easy to work with. It's the ones that aren't very good who tend to be very difficult.
You work really hard to make it, and maybe you get some acclaim, but then you realize there are certain limitations as an actor.
The hard thing is making sure you work with wonderful people and that you get something out of it so that you can get better as an actor.
