A man becomes what he dreams. And I dreamed of being in the movies. I was brought up on Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Warren Beatty, and Cary Grant.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My dreams kind of came through when I went to see the cinema.
As an actor, what you dream of is being able to portray people that people empathize with and understand and really feel for.
I watched movies and thought, 'I want to be in movies,' and wanted to be an actor.
I had been taking acting classes on and off while I was modeling, so I always had a dream to be in a film.
My dream was to become a very small blonde movie star like Ida Lupino and those other women I saw up there on the screen during the Depression.
I dream of working with iconic directors such as Tim Burton, Baz Luhrmann, Terry Gilliam and Wes Anderson - so I'm setting my sights pretty high! My perfect role would be in a fairy-tale period piece, and I'm quite upset all the Harry Potter movies have been made as I'd love to have been in those.
I put a lot of faith in dreams. I know that big movie roles and opportunities are going to happen.
I never imagined I was going to do movies. My dreams were to become a regional theater actor.
James Cagney, Steve McQueen, I loved all those guys. I grew up loving the movies but had no desire to be in them.
It was never really part of my plan to be in films; it was really sort of a dream.
