Michael Cera Almost Quit Acting After Superbad and Juno Success

Michael Cera is one of those delightfully eccentric actors whose fame certainly isn’t guaranteed, so it’s probably not surprising that he’s bummed about the success he’s experienced after his 2007 hit very bad and Juno.In fact, he told protector After entering the public eye, he considered quitting acting altogether.

Despite having already starred in “The Arrested developmentSierra is more of a leading man after a string of roles in this coming-of-age buddy comedy very bad and a teenage pregnancy comedy Juno. Serra recalled that, speaking of that “difficult” time, “I didn’t know how to deal with walking down the street. Fame made you feel very uncomfortable with yourself, it made you paranoid and weird.” There’s a lot of great stuff, and I’ve met a lot of great people, but there’s also a lot of bad energy that I’m not equipped to handle.”

Sierra pointed to meeting drunk superfans as an example of these “bad energies.” “You know, if people are drunk, they recognize you and are very enthusiastic, but that can be toxic too. When you’re a kid, people think they can catch you too—they don’t quite Respect you or your physical space.”

“I didn’t know how to respectfully set my boundaries,” the actor said.At one point, he “didn’t really know if I was going to go on as an actor” and turned down opportunities like hosting saturday night live so as not to become more famous.

It’s finally 2010 Scott Pilgrim vs The World This kept Sierra from quitting acting entirely, mostly because he was already committed to the role at a time of personal crisis. Thankfully, he’s now enjoying more sustainable, low-key success, allowing him to continue working with greats like David Lynch without becoming the biggest star in the world. If it means we’ll see Sierra as Ken’s friend Alan rather than Ken himself, we’ll take it.

In addition to acting as a supporting role Barbie, Serra will soon reprise his role as Scott Pilgrim in an animated series based on the Edgar Wright film.He also stars in Steven Soderbergh’s new sci-fi comedy series Command Zwhich is currently playing on the director’s personal website.
