People like to think that actors are terribly worried about ghosts of other actors in the parts they play. But you just have to get on with it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Acting itself is quite scary. Some people say that actors are show-offs, very egotistical and all that kind of stuff, but it is quite scary.
It doesn't behoove you as an actor to sit around and worry.
Well, I think one of the main things that you have to think about when acting in the movies is to try not to make the acting show.
I think a lot of actors are overly concerned about being well liked in the parts they play.
I don't want to know about the lives of other actors and I don't want people to know too much about me. If we don't know about the private lives of other actors, that leaves us as clean slates when it comes to playing characters. That's the point, they can create these other characters and I can believe them.
Actors go inside the heads of other people and are not afraid of the complicated places you can find yourself.
There are some things that as an actor scare you, and if you can capture that fear on screen, it will be interesting.
Very often what will happen between actors is that they'll develop kind of a ghost relationship in real life that reflects their relationship on screen or in the play that they're doing. In fact, I'd say that happens almost every time. I don't know why that happens, but it seems very common.
I think, for any actor, dealing with the paranormal is intriguing.
Most actors are starving. Most of us are walking around with a flashlight and tweezers looking for evidence. When you have someone that actually writes an acting role, it's rare.
