#30: It Wasn’t in the Stars
Judging by this list, a lot of actors tried and failed to get the role of Finn in Star Wars; Michael B. Jordan is one of them. He even recalls this as one of his worst auditons to date. We don’t know what exactly made this audition so bad, but he says that he realized mid-way through that he wasn’t going to get the part.
It happens to the best of us, though. Probably all of us have had a job interview where we realized during the interview that there’s no chemistry or that we weren’t a right fit for the job… and you just have to put on a brave face and keep going.
So there you have it, friends. If you’re feeling down about a terrible audition experience, just remember that plenty of people have experienced the same thing – and everyone listed has gone on to be super successful! The next time you go for a job interview (or an audition), give it your all and don’t focus too much on the outcome
