Jordana Brewster has starred in a number of high-profile projects throughout her Hollywood career, but before the actress became a star, she got her start in the world of soap operas, which she says is a surprisingly great way to experience the world of acting.
Speaking to ComingSoon in a recent interview about her most recent film, Cellar Door, Brewster opened up about her time on various television soap operas. Brewster said that working on them teaches actors a lot of “technical stuff,” and the stakes being so low helps.
What did Jordana Brewster say about working on soap operas?
“Well, you’re learning, you have like one day to prepare like eight pages of dialogue. So you have to learn the dialogue and adhere to it. Then you have to get used to cameras and hitting your mark. So it teaches you a lot of the technical stuff. Also, the stakes are low because it airs, and then it’s gone forever. So it’s really a great playground for actors.”
Brewster first debuted in the world of acting on a 1995 episode of the hit soap opera All My Children. That same year, she would be cast as Nikki Munson on the equally big soap opera As the World Turns and go on to star in the series for six years, appearing in 118 episodes total.
Since then, Brewster has gone on to star in a number of big movies and shows, including Chuck, Dallas, Lethal Weapon, and the Fast & Furious franchise, which she’s appeared in seven films for.
