“That way, you have more control over — let’s say you’re like, ‘Oh my god, this was the most fun I’ve ever had, and I love this character so much, I want to do it again.’ You now have more creative control for the next one.”

Honestly, that’s fantastic advice, not just for actors but for life in general. Not sure if you should go on that blind date? Just give them one (try). Not sure if you should reach out to an old pal after all these years? Just give them one (friendly text).
