Sort of as a followup to the "good actor, bad agent" post, I feel like a lot of people base their concept of success on whether someone's an A-lister. But that seems like a miserable life, apart from all of the money. I feel like having a solid B career is what most people realize pays the bills and keeps them satisfied.

Not if you have legions of horny fans, though.

i'm pretty damn sure it fucked him to an extent. at one point he couldn't take a break on set unless it was in a really small enclosure.

[tracygee]

True. And I don’t think he expected it. It was a $50 million movie from a new indie studio. And then … BAM.

I feel like they're all at equal levels of success, except Charlie Cox, because I have no idea what his career is like outside of that Daredevil show.

The person who voted for Charlie as the most successful is probably drunk lol

Playing the long game. Respect

Dornan was envious of Pattinson who was making a name for himself as vampire heartthrob Edward Cullen when the pair - as well as pals Andrew Garfield, Charlie Cox and Eddie Redmayne - were roommates over a decade ago.

they're not all super famous but surely all those guys have made a pretty decent career for themselves so at first I thought this meant they were all roomates at some point and was like damn, what's in the water of that building lol

Is that not what it means? I’m not sure how else you would read that.

[ginainabottle]

I thought it meant they (the pair) were roomates and pals with the other ones. Were they all roomates? I'm so confused now and I'm not even high.

[trendsnational]

Were all them rich?

yeah, the majority of the popular actors in the Uk are, which I imagine its necessary to have a family that supports you when trying to get movie roles, it can be a long period without jobs

Plus it seems like going to RADA is kind of a prerequisite for having a good career... Or in case of some other actors being an English major at Oxford or something 😂 It all sounds very expensive to me tbh, but maybe I'm wrong
