Hollywood producers aren't going to say, 'Get me that swearing, grey-haired, headless chicken. We need him for our new 'High School Musical' movie!'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Jerry Weintraub, the producer, might be a pain in the ass, but he really knows how to treat his actors.
Studios have been trying to get rid of the actor for a long time and now they can do it. They got animation. NO more actor, although for now they still have to borrow a voice or two. Anyway, I find it abhorrent.
You know, you grow up with the image of John Travolta being super cool - 'Saturday Night Fever,' Brian De Palma, handsome young god... he, in reality, is a very silly man. And I mean that in a good way. He'll walk around the set talking in little weird voices, making people laugh.
Honestly, I would not advise any actor necessarily, if he was really thinking of his career, to come out.
Me and Johnny Rotten have been talking about doing a movie of his book, No Irish, No Dogs, No Blacks. We have a script, so hopefully that's going to happen at some point in our careers.
By the '40s, Sam Goldwyn is a very serious man. By the '50s, he's the dean of American producers. To the end, he was Hollywood's gray eminence.
That's an actor's dream to get something meaty and juicy and challenging to work on.
The whole thing was an actor's dream - getting a character that tickles you so much you can't wait to act as him.
Whenever any actor comes into a producer session, they have so many questions, and we still can't really tell them that much until they get the job.
Disney has the best casting. If he doesn't like an actor he just tears him up.
