Few people know that this actress left school to pursue acting, not knowing that she was on her way to becoming a globally known and incredibly successful star.
Surprisingly, for her first film role, she had to cover her face and body by putting on a tracksuit and a mask representing a sports team. Can you believe it?
At that time, her face was unknown to the public and she had only a modest fan base. It took some time for her to establish a reputation as a sought-after and successful actress.
At first she took on smaller roles in television series, but these did not bring her any fame or notable success. It was her appearance in “X-Men: First Class” that cemented her status as a cinema icon.
Denzel Washington tells it like it is, he crushed woke hollywood with powerful message
Denzel Washington tells it like it is. Though not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination, he lacks the arrog ance, vapidity, and radical leftism peculiar to Hollywood personalities. Instead, he tends to speak the truth as he sees it in a reasonabIe, rational way that’s quite unlike what’s normally associated with Hollywood.
Such was the case back in 2016 when actors were patting themselves on the back and saying that making a movie was like going to a w ar zone…yes, really. Well, Denzel demolished that lie during an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, saying “People say ‘the difficulty of making a movie.’ Well, send your son to Iraq. That’s difficuIt. It’s just a movie, relax. I don’t play that precious nonsense. Your son got shot in the face? That’s difficult. Making a movie is a luxury. It’s a gift. But don’t get it twisted, it’s just a movie.”
Denzel’s comments might have been a response to Tom Cruise, who had been somewhat misIeadingly quoted in 2013 as saying that filming a movie was brutal like a tour of duty in Afghanistan. The Hollywood Reporter was involved in that story too, reporting: Don’t underestimate the work that Cruise does. As far as he’s concerned, acting is Iike competing in the Olympics, and sometimes like fighting in Afghanistan.
