But when requested whether or not he \u201caccepts\u201d the correlation, Driver replied, \u201cWell, no,\u201d earlier than noting {that a} publication as soon as \u201ccalled me a \u2018horse face\u2019 so I don\u2019t\u2014I take it with a grain of salt. I remember reading one reviewer [who wrote] \u2018his agent probably doesn\u2019t know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2017\/01\/02\/paterson-and-neruda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whether to put him in a movie or the Kentucky Derby<\/a>.\u2019 So I take it, you know, if you believe the good thing, then you have to believe the bad thing. So I try to not absorb anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Then got here Wallace\u2019s statement that Driver doesn\u2019t current like most film stars, asking if that had been a \u201chelp or a hindrance\u201d to Driver\u2019s profession. \u201cI\u2019ve worked consistently, which is nice, with people that I\u2019ve wanted to always, dreamed that I wanted to work with,\u201d Driver replied. \u201cSo in that sense, it hasn\u2019t\u2014I look how I look, I can\u2019t change that. So I guess it helped me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Questions like these date again to not less than 2015, when Driver was requested by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2015\/mar\/29\/adam-driver-lots-things-said-about-face-interview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Guardian<\/em><\/a>: \u201cYou must have been told before that you have an amazing unusual face? It\u2019s a compliment\u2014not being the standard Hollywood McHunk has worked in your favor.\u201d Driver gamely responded then by saying, \u201cI have been told before that I have an unusual face. But my face is my face. I had a whole life before acting, over the years. Lots of things have been said about my face.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Eight years later, Driver jokingly informed Wallace that his seems are \u201ca hindrance in only breaking mirrors wherever I go and and having a misshapen outsized body that I can\u2019t fit through doorways, or most clothes or fit into most cars, adding, \u201cApart from that, it\u2019s good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Wallace couldn\u2019t resist one final beat on this subject. He offered a photograph of <strong>Robert Redford<\/strong> earlier than Driver and requested if his occupation can be simpler if he seemed just like the Oscar winner. \u201cIt would just be different,\u201d Driver stated. \u201cWho doesn\u2019t want to look like Robert Redford? I\u2019ve accepted this is how I look.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Weeks after giving a candid, headline-making response to criticism of Ferrari\u2019s crash scenes, actor Adam Driver fielded questions from Chris Wallace on his CNN present about the truth that, in line with the journalist, \u201cyou don\u2019t look like the typical movie star.\u201d He began this line of questioning by noting comparisons that had been [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":115420,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-115418","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrity-gossip"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115418","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=115418"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115418\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/115420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=115418"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=115418"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/showbizztoday.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=115418"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
