It's important to have the right agent - people that are working hard for you. But an actor needs to be in control of their career no matter how good the representation is.

Most actors and actresses are consumed by careers and getting ahead.

We have too many actors for the jobs available.

Actors in general have become very spoiled in the roles they choose these days. When I first started in this profession - about a hundred years ago in the last century - it was all about taking risks, it was about doing the job and honing the craft.

As an actor, as you grow into where you fit in the industry, you're just trying to find the opportunities, hoping they grow and you get to do more.

As a director/writer/producer, all you ever want is to work with actors who make you look better, who make the work you do seem as good as it can be and even better than it is.

The big thing for actors is the level of commitment.

I think there are a lot of other actors that are just talented, it's just about this opportunity - it's just about when are we going to be put in those positions where we can shine.

It's such a small industry here you inevitably end up working with the same people over and over again. There are only so many actors to go around, which is good for us.

Directors say that you should get actors before they are recognized. They will be a pain or have an opinion.
