As an actor, whether you look good or you don't, it's still about what you look like: Whether you are heavy enough to play this part or thin enough to play that part. The fact of the matter is, you can add a little weight with some extra padding, but you can't shave it off.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As an actor, you have to get used to being told no, develop a thick skin, and just keep persevering.
I think it's a bigger risk following a part that plays up your looks than it is to try and carve out a career as an actor.
