Question: I want to be an actor; is it too late!?
I did a few plays in 6th grade but haven't really done anything since then!. I've "directed" home made movies with my cousins which turned out good!. (my family watched them) lol
I've been told I make funny faces and I've been told I'm a funny guy and a good actor!. I'm in 10th grade and 16 years old!. I don't know if it's too late for me to actually get "noticed" and become a "famous" actor!. Do you guys know anyone that is famous know that started out "late" with their career!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

1!.) Its never too late
2!.) Just because you make funny faces doesn't mean you'll be able to convey your emotions on a stage or film ini front of people!.
3!.) Start by doing some school plays, workshops, ect, so you can see if you really want to do this!. You should take this VERY seriously!. Maybe this will turn into a career, or just a hobbie!.
4!.) Good Luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
It's never too late! BEsides that, you are still young! Get involved in an acting class!. I actaully do know a many who didn't start acting until her was retired (after 70!) and has booked numerous national commercials!. If you live in Southern California you are lucky - if not, you can still get involved locally!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
16 is not too late to begin studying the craft and developing skills!.
99!.99% of actors don't just get "noticed!." They work hard, take classes, go to auditions, take more classes, go to more auditions, perform in little black box theatres, work at their day job!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
