Plus, you have to be able to take that technical mastery and apply it across multiple genres, from quiet character dramas to epic action-packed blockbusters. ![]() For one, you have to be able to act – to really inhabit a character’s deepest emotions, to step into their skin so that the words on the page come across as lived and felt. Ever since there have been movies, there have been movie stars – and becoming one of the world’s greatest actors involves being able to be many things at once. ![]() |
