#22: Your Agent Knows Best
While Hollywood agents aren’t oracles who can tell which films will work and which won’t, generally speaking, they have a good eye and ear for projects that will work for their clients, and they also know when something – or someone – might not be a right fit.
The role of Spiderman wasn’t the right fit for him, as hard as it was for him to accept. Timothee Chalamet went on to have a massive breakout year in 2017, complete with Oscar nominations and more.
