As an actor you appreciate the security of a job. But I don't ever want to get too comfortable.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.
I think actors get too comfortable. I like being uncomfortable as an actor because it keeps you alive. I don't know, I think it's important.
That is the most liberating thing to feel as an actor: that you don't have to hold back or be afraid. A bit might not work, but it doesn't matter.
I think part of what makes someone a great actor is being able to walk into a situation emotionally available and open, and have all your guards down, and just have that level of trust and security in yourself to know that you could walk out on that limb with someone else and be safe.
It doesn't behoove you as an actor to sit around and worry.
As an actor, sometimes you've gotta take the jobs that you may not want to do. It's so hard to work as an actor.
Actors are an insecure breed. It's hard to have your career depend upon other people's opinions of what you do.
I think most actors like to do things that are right outside of their comfort zone.
You want to work with good people. When you're working with good people, it frees you up. There's nothing worse, as an actor, to show up and then feel like you have to protect yourself somehow because you don't feel like you're in good hands.
As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.
