John Corbett Shares Career Regret: ‘It’s Been Unfulfilling’ Only Being an Actor in Hollywood and ‘I Picked the F—ing Wrong Thing to Do With My Life’
variety.comZack Sharf Digital News Director John Corbett recently appeared on the “Fly on the Wall” podcast (via Entertainment Weekly) and expressed regret over limited his career in Hollywood to strictly being an actor.
Corbett’s acting career spans hit television series such as “Northern Exposure” and “Sex and the City” and movies like the “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” franchise.
However, all the money he’s made from acting hasn’t prevented him from feeling like he’s missed out on other creative roles in Hollywood. “Look, I’m in the fourth quarter of the football game now, in life and in showbiz.
It’s just a fact,” Corbett said. “So I can reveal now I picked the fucking wrong thing to do with my life.” “Have you ever sat in a fucking waiting room of a doctor’s office for like an hour and been like, ‘What the fuck?'” Corbett added about his career regret. “For me, that’s what making a movie is like, because I’m not part of any creative process.” Corbett cited Emma Stone’s career as one that might’ve afforded him a more fulfilling Hollywood career as she not only acts but also produces and acts as a creative collaborator on recent film projects such as “Poor Things” and “Kinds of Kindness,” both directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.
