Bryce Dallas Howard Says She Hasn't Been Surprised by the Flops in Her Career - "You Can Always See It Coming"
Actress and director Bryce Dallas Howard has found success both in front of and behind the camera in many films and series over the years, but just like any other actor, she has been a part of plenty of box office flops.
But she takes each disappointment in stride, as she talked about some of her career misfires in a recent interview with The Independent, saying:
"You can always see it coming while you're making it. I've never been shocked when something doesn't work. But I'm just an actor – you're there to serve a director's vision.
“If a movie doesn’t turn out the way that you envisioned, you can barely feel disappointed because it's not yours. You're not the person who's building the thing."
Some of the films that didn’t do well with the box office or fans are movies like Lady in the Water and Argylle, both of which I actually really enjoyed.
Every movie has some kind of audience and impact, and sometimes they work on a larger scale, and sometimes they don’t. It’s probably best for creators to be able to brush off their slumps and press forward, and Howard has done a good job on that front.
Howard can next be seen in Deep Cover, which co-stars Orlando Bloom, Nick Mohammed, Ian McShane, Paddy Considine, Sean Bean, and Sonoya Mizuno. It follows three improv comedians who get recruited into sting operations.
She will also get back behind the camera in a remake of the classic ‘80s movie Flight of the Navigator, which is currently in pre-production.
