I would say sooner rather than later. If you start now, you may have a better chance and a longer career ahead of you. If you started later, it might be harder. Notice that lots of the popular young actors/actresses started acting as children.
Hope this helps

Nah, I don't think it would be to late. You should go and try and get into a college and get a Theatrical Degree. I don't think it would hurt you to get an agent and start working in maybe commercials and start getting some filler for your resume, but I still believe in the idea that college is important.

It's only too late when you're dead..

I heard recently of a 92 year old woman who fulfilled her life long dream of acting and is now acting onstage in The Nutcracker..

You're still really young..just continue acting whenever you can and gain lots more experience..

No need to LOOK for an agent. Go to SAG.com and they have a list.

Too late? It's never too late to become an actress. If your mom is letting you get an agent i say go for it!!


Hope that helps!

Never Too Late!

There are tons of actors that are like 80 that are just starting!
It's great that you have your parents support. But you're also going to need some of their money (put on a cute smile)
Because you are going to need a headshot, which is a picture of you that is shown to the casting directors and agents.

Theres tons of information on www.actingcareerstartup.com
Go to the Teen Section. Theres like step by Step!
It's a perfect site for you!

Good Luck!

It is NEVER to late to start an acting career. I have a friend that started acting in her 70s! She books a lot of roles.
