Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You have a better chance of getting stuck by lightning while sitting in a house you won from Ed McMahon.

Just about all the successful stars today say it all a matter of luck. Being in the right place at the right time and being chosen for a role that ends up becomes a hit Thousands of would be Hollywood actors try for the big time, but only a handful make it. It's a tough business and most actors complain of being treated like a commodity.

If you have real acting talent and you enjoy being on stage, do it whenever and as often as you can. Luck may be on your side but you will never find out until you try.

Many very successful actors are not household names. Some have worked in the industry steadily for years but don't have the same name recognition as say Tom Cruise. They have had long steady careers doing a variety of rolls without the pressure of being one of the big name stars who are only as successful as their last big hit. That kind of star power is hard to maintain.
