To be honest, it's easier for me to speak with an American accent.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I actually always try to not do a general American accent. I always try to give a region.
It's easier to act in your own accent.
I'm the only one in my family with an American accent.
I love talking in an American accent. Even though it hurts my face after a few hours.
Don't let the American accent fool you. I am British.
When I first came to the States, I thought I had a perfect American accent, and then I was abruptly becoming aware that it wasn't. So I did have to work on it a little bit, but I was hesitant working on it because I thought it was good.
I have a strong accent; it limits the roles, of course it does. I guess if I had moved to America a long time ago maybe my accent would have got less.
When I arrived in L.A., I assumed I'd be able to put on the American accent. It proved difficult, so I had six months working with a dialect coach, and it's become a habit.
I have spent too long training myself to speak with an American accent, it's ingrained. I spend 16 hours a day on set speaking with an American accent. Now, when I try to speak with an Aussie accent, I just sound like a caricature of myself.
I think most British people who say they can do an American accent are so bad at it. I find it excruciating. I find it excruciating the other way around, too.
