I've definitely been spoilt. Every movie I've done, it's always the same criteria: finding a great story, and finding a great part to play.

More quotes by Alden Ehrenreich
That is sort of the eternal question for people who go to Hollywood...what will be the straw that breaks the camel's back, and forces you to think about doing something else? When do you throw in the towel?
Alden Ehrenreich
[Howard Hughes ] approached filmmaking like he approached all of his inventiveness - it gave him an opportunity to make a name for himself in the world.
Alden Ehrenreich
It was pretty fun [auditioning on the Millennium Falcon], because I enjoyed the material a lot. Last year I read for the directors, then came to England and did a test on the Falcon, then came back and did a couple more screen tests in Los Angeles.

Some movies, I think, present ideas of the world that just don't help people with their lives. They just present things that are fleeting or stupid. So that's what I'm careful about - making sure I'm part of something that is saying something that I think is valuable in the world of people, not necessarily in the world of art.
Alden Ehrenreich
Acting-wise, I've had all these experiences. Yet when I look at certain people whose careers I admire, they've gotten to play so many different characters. So it's just that - getting to have more of these singular little adventures where you get to be a part of a completely different world.

I'm glad to be an actor to be employed by people who are now 12, probably. I look forward to that.

[The Coen brothers] hire the same people over and over again, so there's a shorthand between all of the people they're working with.
Alden Ehrenreich
[ Being director] is really reassuring to me that it's just about who is right for that role and less about if you ace the audition. It's just about getting to know people, not about who's a better actor a lot of the time. It's about who fits that particular suit, you know?
Alden Ehrenreich
Just getting to talk to that person [Woody Allen ] in real life was pretty wild.
Alden Ehrenreich
There's a lot of complicated magical reasons why I'm not at the party that are too long and semantic to go into.
Alden Ehrenreich
When I worked with anybody like Woody Allen, there's the name, and your understanding of who they are before you meet them, that stays in your head a little bit.
Alden Ehrenreich
One of the big takeaways from that experience [in Blue Jasmin] was just what a thrill it was to act with somebody like Cate Blanchett operating on that caliber. Because what she was doing was very powerful. T
Alden Ehrenreich
That's a lot more legitimate than the retail therapy I do.
Alden Ehrenreich
The idea of it [Star Wars] is really exciting, but the most fun part is the actual job you get to do: the character that you get to play, the people that you work with, the day-to-day experience.
Alden Ehrenreich
The biggest challenge to being an actor is when you're not working, just being unemployed, the downtime and not having anything to do.
Alden Ehrenreich
I talked to Woody Allen for half an hour or something. It was pretty incredible. He really went into lots of detail about the story [in Blue Jasmin] and what actually happened. Just talking to him is very surreal.
Alden Ehrenreich
You get bummed out, and then you go, Oh! Now I get to go buy a present for myself. That kind of helps.
Alden Ehrenreich
[Warren Beatty] is voraciously detail-oriented.
Alden Ehrenreich
I got turned down for a million jobs until I got my first movie with Francis [Ford Coppola].
Alden Ehrenreich
You need those people to also have power and authority, and in a way that has been the story of my career.
