Actor Robin Wright originally wanted to be a dancer specifically one on the chorus line for a Broadway show.
She took a turn, however, and went into modeling.
Wright got her first gig at 14 and continued throughout her teens.
She was in ‘Deer Hunter.’
When I saw these films, I was like, ‘That’s inspirational!'"
Wright said on an episode ofCollider Ladies Night.
While Wright claims she never fully got over her fear of acting, she pursued the field anyway.
Additionally, she picked up on the details of acting she hadn’t previously considered.
“What I really learned was the technical side of performing,” Wright told theHarvard Business Review.
“We worked with three cameras at all times.
That environment quickly taught her how to manage her time, energy, and health.
It also helped her discover that she had a greater love for film than television.
“I loved film.
She also tried her hand behind the camera, directing multiple episodes.
Doing both jobs was a challenge.
Acting and directing aren’t Wright’s only jobs, though.
“Of course, I often got the message that I should do more.
But I think it’s nice to keep people wanting.”
“And I was like, ‘Yes, I’m doing that.'”
