If I had accepted the offers to continue just for the sake of carrying on then it wouldn't have made me happy especially if it was just for money. Now I've got other projects to concentrate on.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I gave up a lot of things in exchange for my success.
I have begun several projects which were never completed, not necessarily because they failed, but because I got interested in other things.
I have been offered a lot for my work, but never everything.
I have to say that most of the deals I have done initially were badly received, and after a while, people realised that maybe I was not that wrong.
When I look at offers, I think about the entire package and how it is going to work in my favour or how it's going to project me.
I don't give up on commitments until what I've been asked to do is clearly finished.
Life is too short to be doing work that doesn't make you feel happy and fulfilled. I'd rather wait for the right project, as opposed to just taking whatever is handed to me.
We have disappointments all the time in the business, and I've lost way more projects than I've booked. I've learned from every opportunity and have been chosen for some really great projects!
I got a lot of offers after 'Rockstar' but was totally dependent on the team managing my work, who did not want me to sign any of the films I was offered, even though I wanted to.
If you start by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.
