Ethan Hawke calls celebrity 'poison' for young actors in Hollywood
Fox News
Ethan Hawke tells Joe Rogan that celebrity is "poison" for young actors' brains, reflecting on how fame affects child performers and his own career path.
Sarah Sotoodeh is an associate entertainment editor for Fox News Digital.
"I think celebrity is like a tiny drop of mercury. Or its poison. It's poison for your brain," the actor said.
Hawke got his first taste of acting at age 14, but after his first film didn't go as he had hoped, he called it quits on his career and went back home to the East Coast to finish high school, and eventually began college – before dropping out when he landed a role in "Dead Poets Society."
