Are you serious? Almost anyone can take some acting classes and have a go at it. The only difficult part of the profession is getting work; if and once you get it youre laughing.

with each word you keep on confirming you have a very idealized idea of the profession...

sure you can take classes but those will not compensate for lack of talent you dont have it. but even more importantly: lets say you do have talent. now what. so does the milion of hungry actors next to you. to get a paid acting job is Hard. to get it repeatadly is very rare. and even if you do end up getting booked, its just a very challenging profession to be in, very demanding emotionally and physically. long hours, jigg expectations, your psyche and sometimes also body on display to thousands/milions of people, everybody judging you, its just not an easy job to do and maintain.

You just confirmed what I said as the hard part is getting the job not the job itself per se. You think they dont get paid well for these long hours? Id do it in a heartbeat so if youre a casting director hire me.😃
