You never get fans hanging out on movie sets. It just never happens.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most of the time, you do films and they can be big films, but you are rarely aware of the fan base that comes with it.
I never got why actors don't like it when a fan comes up to them on the street. It is cool that someone recognizes what you do and makes you feel like you live in a community.
There are a lot of movies I've done that come and go, and don't really establish a growing fan base.
On film sets, people get put down in public a lot.
If you're lucky, you go from being a movie fan to a movie maker.
I've never really broken this down before, but, in movies, you almost have no connection to fans. And if you do TV, you're kind of connected, but they know you as the TV name not your real name. If you do radio, there's more of a bond there. And then if you do a podcast it's like you're literally inside of your fans.
I arrived in Hollywood and lived much of my life in America, but the fans did not really know me.
A lot of producers now are people who stay in their office and never go to the set. I don't know how you can be the advocate of the movie if you're not there in it every day.
Every actor is alive because of his/her fans. I'm glad that my fans love me so much. I have an immense responsibility towards them. That's why I'm careful while signing a film. What is also important is to judge whether I would like to watch the film as an audience or not.
No matter what people say, your fans are the ones that come to watch the movie or come to your shows and that's the most important thing.
