I had a lot of time before I actually got my break so to speak. I was building websites for other actors. I worked in a grocery store back in the little village where I grew up but I found it mind-numbingly boring.
You can be the best actor in the world, but if you don't have that one lucky moment, it kind of doesn't matter. There are a lot of amazing actors who will never get the chance to prove themselves because they won't have that one lucky moment.
All actors have to change their name.
On the whole, British actors star in theater, and I think there's something quite grounding about that.
I think most actors will tell you the same thing; when you're not working you put 100 percent into every audition.
