Sam Worthington fears unemployment despite ‘Avatar’ success
By ANITuesday, January 5, 2010
MELBOURNE - ‘Avatar’ hunk Sam Worthington is scared he may be out of work and unable to pay his bills in future, despite the huge success of his latest film.
The star feels that the fear of unemployment is always present in an actor’s mind.
“Every actor thinks that … every actor fears unemployment. Every actor, no matter who they are, thinks ‘where is the next job?’” the Herald Sun quoted him as saying.
He added: “If there is a reason why I have gone so hard out of the gate and done movie after movie after movie after movie - there is a point where you go ‘am I saturating, will the public be sick of me?’, but what I believe is it raises my game because it means I will always be trying to improve on myself.”
Also, Worthington insisted that he lives a life of an ordinary man.
He said: “I live an ordinary life, I go home drink beer, do my washing. Doing normal things, that’s how I recharge.
“But I haven’t stopped working since Avatar, so I think the most I’ve had off is a week between jobs.
“Five jobs back to back - I love working, it beats being unemployed, beats sitting there waiting for the phone to ring thinking, give me some work I’ve got bills to pay.” (ANI)
