Are Actors The Smartest People In The World?
People who are or want to become actors are often slandered with statements like “being an actor is nearly impossible, what makes you think you can do it” or “I don’t understand what’s so great about being an actor” or anything that may be discouraging and stupid. However those actors may know something that we don’t know. Education is probably the most valued thing in the world so couldn’t you argue that actors may be some of the most educated people in the world? Let me explain…
With each role an actor is selected for they have to do extensive research and preparation for an accurate portrayal. If the actor is playing a math professor they become well versed in the realm of collegiate level math, if they’re playing an artist, months of practicing and appreciating art happens, or even if they’re going for the role of a boxer the actor trains exactly how a successful boxer does. What does this do exactly? Each role an actor gets there is a greater chance for increased knowledge and skill set. After spending so much time with acquiring a skill set the skill doesn’t leave the actor so easily. That means instead of stopping at the 4–6 year window of college, actors constantly get their education and through experience become well versed in areas of life most will never dabble in.
There you have it, actors might not actually be the smartest people in the world per-say but they’re experience shouldn’t go unaccounted for and with movies getting made everyday it truly puts them in a league of their own.
