    I think the average actor in Hollywood makes like $25 an hour.

    It’s also very inconsistent work since you are not always acting in a show or movie, and it can be very tough to book new roles.

      Plus the new deal studios want really sucks: background actors to be scanned and paid for one day, and then their digital likenesses can be used forever. You’ll get paid once and never work again…god forbid your Q score is high; they’ll make your doppelgänger a star and leave you waiting tables.
