“The first audition I ever did, the casting director said, “I don`t know why you`re here. You`re never going to work in America. You don`t look right. You don`t have the right kind of personality. I don`t even know if you can do an American accent. Maybe you can try England.” Other people were nice, but that`s the first thing I ever heard when I came here. It made me more determined.”
