I Don't Have 4 Or 5 Projects In Front Of Me And An Offer On Every One Saying 'what One Would You Like To Do?' Things Come Along One At A Time.

I Was Going To Be A High School Teacher. I Was Studying At The University Of Alberta In Edmonton, Up In Canada. I Was Also Acting In A Wonderfully Supportive Theatre Community In Edmonton. There's A Lot Of Support For Theatre There. So, I Was Having A Great Time, But I Didn't Consider Acting As A Serious Career Initially, Because Even The Most Successful Actors That I Know In Edmonton Are Not Super Successful. Acting Over There Is Just Not A Success-oriented Career.

Being In The Industry, I've Seen Many Situations Where Someone Will Get The Call From The Network Where They Say 'you Guys Have 5 Episodes To Wrap It Up.' Then All Your Long-term Story Arcs Gotta Get Wrapped Up In Five Episodes Because That's How Many Episodes You Got Left. I Would Hate To See That Happen To 'castle'.

It's So Great In Hollywood Now. You Have People Past 40 Sitting And Talking About Serious Stuff, Writing And Making Movies And Tv, But There's Laser Pistols And Superheroes And Alien Monsters Involved. It's Viable And Mainstream.
