If you find yourself desperate for money, you sometimes do whatever, but on the other hand, if you really want to be known as a certain type of actor, then you have to restrain yourself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reason I wanted to be an actor is that I don't want to play me for the rest of my life and make money out of that.

When you work with actors, what you're hoping to absorb is good ways to be an actor as opposed to how to handle being famous.
The thing about being an actor is that you turn into other people. You have to hide yourself a bit in order to let that other person come out.
If you're a kid who's not necessarily attractive, and you don't have money, and you're not hip and cool, chances are you're not going to feel good about yourself and want to be an actor.
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.
Let's face facts, this is visual medium, there's a very high premium put on people who are good-looking. But the minute you rely on that you get yourself in trouble. You certainly don't make a career out of that anymore as an actor.
I think it's the actor's job - when you think of being typecast or getting out of the shadow of whatever you've had success in - it's up to you as an actor. The industry will always want to hire you for what you were successful in last and what made money. But you can say no to that and look for other parts.
There's no real excuse for being successful enough as an actor to do what you want and then selling out. You do it pure. You don't try to adapt it, make it commercial.
If you're an actor in your heart, no matter how much money they shove at you, it doesn't matter if the work doesn't provide that creative spark. You want out.
