"I'm kind of tired of staying quiet about it. I want people to know that it's not always dandelions and roses when you're doing something like Aladdin.

[People think] 'He must have made millions. He must be getting all these offers.' It's none of those things. I haven't had a single audition since Aladdin came out.

The big truth is I haven't really seen a big anything from [Aladdin]."

"There's always a wild card or two when you're casting. I'm usually the wild card. In a room of Caucasian guys, a director might be like, OK, let's see, like, two guys who aren't. And maybe they'll be the wild card choice."

The industry is very corrupt and unfair. And to think I wasted so much time and money pursuing it smh

Naomi Hit Me

That's always the risk with doing these huge movies
They attract small time actors looking for a big break only for them to get shafted and underpaid

This racist mess of an industry  :uhh:


Bentley. HARRIS!

king start you an onlyfans page and get some coin

he was good in Aladdin, he has to figure out how to make that work for him some more.

that's why I wouldn't do a huge remake, if you don't just blow ppl away you're name won't get out. He's basically Aladdin now

..... maybe hit up Marvel

Gilgamesh.

There was more buzz about Will than the rest of the cast put together :shannonsmissing:

i didn't even know this guy's name so i'm not suprised he's not getting work.
