Audience Quotes
-
As an actor, you want people to see you as a whole person, not just a single facet of your emotional spectrum. And whether it's the audience or the industry, you end up getting pigeonholed as one thing. So for people to see I can be funny and stay in shape is a bit of a weight off my shoulders.
Scott Porter

One thing that's been a great, uplifting experience through all this is, since the first "Pirates" movie, the people who've gone to see the films, the audience members.

Johnny Depp

People build fame because they're pretty sometimes.Most of the time. This is what the audience wants, apparently. I don't necessarily agree, but I cannot go against it. But it's true that our industry is just full of people who actually really look good. It's the criteria of our generation.
