hi, well i was wondering if i could be an actor. im 18 year old korean boy and i dont know what i want to do when i grow up. im 5′3 ( really short ) but im not lanky im pretty built. i was born and raised in hawaii so i dont have any asian accent. although i can do them haha. experiences i had with acting was at my highschool senior year wen i joined a program called arts and communications and i played theseus in mid summer nights dreams. and that was a pretty big part haha. so i was wondering wat were the chances of making it to hollywood. if not ill persue a differnt dream. but i really want to be an actor because i enjoy doing it. but sometimes u just cant get wat u want u know …
If you’re good, then ofcourse you can.
I honestly think this a very funny question. No offense to your ethnicity (I’m an asian actor myself). But over the years, I really think Hollywood has really opened up its doors for anyone with a dream. Think about it:
1- White males
2- White males & females
3- White males & females / Hispanic males (small roles)
4- White males & females / Black/Asian/Hispanic males and some females
5- EVERYBODY
Okay…that’s probably not the order it went in. But hopefully you could see that Hollywood is starting to open up their doors.
Dude. GET OUT THERE! Act your a** off as much as you can. You’re going to be an actor if you really want it.

I am pretty sure you can get a career in acting. There are many people that are and can be in hollywood staring a movie. You just have to put your mind to it and think positive then you can definitely accomplish your dreams!
GOOD LUCK!
