I've always felt whatever the opposite of disillusioned is. I guess illusioned with movies and with people in movies and things like that. It's all exciting to me.

More quotes by Alden Ehrenreich
You do need these people to go out on a limb for you, thinking you're right for a role rather than having box office numbers.
Alden Ehrenreich
For me, each one of those experiences stands on its own. The first one was with Steven Spielberg, who helped me to get an agent and vouch for me, and that gave me the confidence to continue.
Alden Ehrenreich
I think you always feel like you're about a hair's breadth away from being a bad actor anyway... It's not too hard to let the rope go slack, so to speak.
Alden Ehrenreich
I had an audition process that went on for a long time, and I got to spend a lot of time with the guys who are directing the film. Getting to be around them and being around the world a little bit has been the main experience so far. I did my audition on the Millennium Falcon for one of my screen tests, which was pretty cool.
Alden Ehrenreich
That's a lot more legitimate than the retail therapy I do.
Alden Ehrenreich
Just getting to talk to that person [Woody Allen ] in real life was pretty wild.
Alden Ehrenreich
I want to make movies that people see. I really think that movies are the most popular form of story telling ever and have such a huge impact on culture when they do.
Alden Ehrenreich
I really feel lucky that I still feel excited about the actual work that I get to do. I just happen to love it, and I could easily see, for somebody else, that not being the case.
Alden Ehrenreich
I met Scarlett [Johansson] briefly, but Josh [Brolin] and George [Clooney], in particular, were so welcoming and so inclusive and really brought me into the fold from the beginning. They were just very considerate of me, and it meant a lot [shootong Hail, Caesar!].
Alden Ehrenreich
It's a little bit about how I felt about Hail, Caesar! and now Star Wars. I could not have predicted those things happening to me. But I'm just happy they come along.
Alden Ehrenreich
With 'Hail, Caesar!' it was about all the skill sets I had to learn, but each movie requires a different way of working. You're a piece in a new world, and there is always a difficult part within that world. For me, it's not consistent from movie-to-movie, each film has a central challenge.
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
An era that I specifically like is sort of late 50's, early 60's. I guess mid 50's too. I like these types of films that deal with post WWII America and this more complex leading man that kind of emerges from that.
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
I grew up watching a lot of old movies, so getting to ask about making movies in the '70s and people he was friends with, like Orson Welles, Lillian Hellman and Charlie Chaplin, and hearing a first-person account was pretty incredible.
Alden Ehrenreich
You need those people to also have power and authority, and in a way that has been the story of my career.
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
I'm an actor because I love movies, and always have loved movies. I'm a film buff. So, getting to work with those kinds of directors and getting to tell those stories is what I want to do.
Alden Ehrenreich
It feels like you're being invited into a kind of community [working with the Coen brothers].
Alden Ehrenreich
Whenever you hear somebody else is auditioning for something, you sort of assume they're going to get it. You should try to just ignore it. I don't find it very helpful to know who else is going up for stuff, generally.
