Do i have a chance at being a hollywood actress?

i want to do it because i love the whole art and process of acting, not for the fame or money.=p but i won’t hate being rich and famous either. hahaha!

i’m 5’7”, of chinese-spanish descent and oriental-looking (almond shaped eyes, dark brown hair and eyes, tannish skin, you get the idea), slim and not voluptuous, I can say i have good talent in acting. i’m very smart too. i know a lot.

but i’m afraid of being typecast as the “asian girl”. or maybe even rejected just for being Asian.

and if i have a chance at it, how can i do it?
thank for your answers:) but what i really want is to be a film director. to be an actress is just an alternative:)

To be honest, no I don’t think you can be a Hollywood actress….

Unfortunately, Hollywood is all about looks, how much money you have and the people you know, not so much talent. Also, Asian features are still not considered mainstream or beautiful in America. Very few Asian actresses have made it on screen and i don’t think it’s a coincedence cuz many are very talented. It’s sad but unless you look like a model, you don’t have much of a chance. An agent can help you but can not make up for talent or appearance so rememebr that….

There is no reason why you can’t be an actress in general though; just a movie actress, in Hollywood, no less, is pretty tough for anyone, even a blond american girl. So don’t give up your dreams of being an actress, just have a realistic career goal.
