Some of the most cutthroat auditions you'll have as an actor are when you'll have three words to say.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I know it sounds silly, but in auditions for film or TV, the words aren't as important - you need to get into the character and have the gist of the scene. But in theater, if you don't do it word for word, then you throw off your scene partner.
You have to keep persevering. An actor goes to a lot of auditions and doesn't get the part.
If you are a successful actor, which is what I am, then you tend to get labelled very quickly and easily.
I try to get the best performance an actor can give.
I'm down to act a little bit - go on a couple auditions or make one of those three-second cameos with one line.
If you're a young person who wants to become an actor, it's really important to walk into a casting room with a sense of yourself and some life experience. You can really delight a room and have them already choose you before you've even said a word!
You have to know that 99% of auditions you're not going to get.
Acting takes a lot of practice, but so does auditioning.
It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.
I never talk about auditions. Even if I've got the role, I won't tell people until we're literally filming it.
