David Morrissey on location filming in London’s Southbank - London, United Kingdom - Friday 3rd May 2013
I think there’s lots of advice I’ve been given about ‘how you do the job’ but the one thing that really rang truth for me as far as being an actor in the profession is that you should never take anything personally. That you will be rejected all the time. People will say “no” to you all the time. That you are always too tall, too short, too fat, too thin, too ugly, too good looking. You’re always “too something” for the job and you have to just let that go and get on with the next thing. It’s the hardest thing to do. And it’s sort of the bit of advice I come back to myself, to remind myself of all the time.
It’s a fantastic job but it’s also the sense that it’s about rejection.
