“When I first set out to do it, I wanted to be a working actor, and now...” — Michael Pena Quote

“When I first set out to do it, I wanted to be a working actor, and now it seems like it's superseded even my dreams.”

“I usually just try to do whatever's on the page because I've done research before - including a lot of analysis - but you end up with conflicting data. To me, the script is king.”

“I used to tour with this band. I was a drummer. I would tour a bunch for about 10 months out of the year and act for about two months. I would make what I needed from acting and would stretch it out.”

“I've actually had a great career in Hollywood. I've been a working actor my whole life.”

“I'm a working actor, so I do pretty much whatever comes along because it's my job.”

“I'm very happy to be a working actor.”
