Actors' careers are random with a capital "R."
Bill Murray, we've got to get people worthy to be on the screen with him, as opposed to just a bunch of random... with no disrespect... but a bunch of random local actors.
Scientific careers rely on inheritance, environment, and random events, like all biological phenomena.
People very often say to actors that they admire their careers, and I rather think that what's implied by that is that we have a choice in the matter. When really, most actors, me included, do whatever comes along next.
My heroes are guys like Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Matt Damon. These are amazing actors with amazing careers that every actor should aspire to. I'm not saying I'm going to get anywhere close. It's not going to be an easy feat. I'm just in awe of their careers.
The financial doctrines so zealously followed by American companies might help optimize capital when it is scarce. But capital is abundant. If we are to see our economy really grow, we need to encourage migratory capital to become productive capital - capital invested for the long-term in empowering innovations.
I know a lot of actors who started out as musicians and have very successful careers as actors, but most people don't know them as musicians.
When people talk about first-timers, I always think of Spike Lee. In every film he's made, he has A-listers, but he's always giving roles to first-time actors and breaking careers. He's brought such wonderful actors into the spotlight, and I love that.
I admire a lot of actors, but I don't covet people's careers.
What's not to look forward to? It's like all the actors in all of the films. It's difficult to get Martin Freeman and I in a room together. Imagine what it's like to get myself, Chris Hemsworth, Robert Downey Jr., Elizabeth Olsen... these extraordinary actors who all have careers outside the Marvel Universe.
All actors have their own unique path when it comes to the development of their training and careers.
Most actors and actresses are consumed by careers and getting ahead.
All the actors go through ups and downs in their careers and in their lives.
All the actors I respect, especially old-Hollywood actors, the reason I think so many of them have had long careers is that there is a sort of mystery about them. You don't know what they do on Friday nights when they go home from work. You have no clue. You have this sort of fantasy about them.
Certainly there have been better actors than me who have had no careers. Why? I don't know.
I know actors with promising careers who get blown out of the business, never to return.
I think actors' careers have highs and lows, and ups and downs. It just really all depends.
