One of the things that is assumed about actors is that they are extrovert, which is almost never the case, in my experience.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When actors give their input, it can be very ego-driven, and directors are scared of that.
From my experience, I think that every actor has to make sure that they're in charge of their own career somehow or other.
I suspect, for a lot of people who become actors, there's a feeling of wanting to be someone other than who they actually are.
Theater actors like to change character roles. They don't like to always do the same thing.
The truth is, good actors are always looking to do something different. They are dying to play slightly odder characters or work on movies that aren't straight down the middle.
I'm not asking actors to act. I'm asking them to behave. I want to see their being, not how they can fake it.
I think that's so strange, because they do know that we're all actors and we perform things that have not necessarily anything to do with us personally.
As an actor sometimes you can be a bit emotional and forceful, and that's not always the way to be.
All good actors are unpredictable, and a little crazy in a good way, because they feel more secure playing other people than themselves.
Actors always think that others are getting more work than them. In my case, they usually are.
