You get pigeonholed. Some people are film stars, and some are theatre stars who do one-off telly. Somehow, I get into long-running series.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reason I prefer working with established actors and stars is because they are more popular, and the film reaches out to more people and do well in terms of numbers, too.
I work with a lot of movie stars.
As you know, Hollywood loves to pigeonhole all the actors and actresses, and suddenly I got 're-pigeonholed' as an action actor.
There are certain stars who are not actors. I don't want to be that type.
People on series are now given a lot more opportunities, sometimes more than film actors.
Actors get pigeonholed very quickly, particularly movie actors. In the theater, one is more used to casting people against type and trusting that their talent and skill will get them through.
Major film stars tend to do a film and then have a couple of months off. I'm not a major film star; I'm a jobbing actor.
No matter how many people tell you, Save your money, when you've got a series, you never do. Somehow it doesn't seem important. Maybe it's because you've been without money for so long as an actor.
The point of being a movie star is that people cast you in a role. Actors tie themselves in knots trying to get out of that.
I write a number of screenplays, and I've never really come up with a part for a movie star.
