Born and raised in Brooklyn, Wass Stevens didn't take acting seriously until his mid-30s, when an actress he was dating insisted on him taking acting classes with her acting coach. Wass put his desire to become a lawyer aside, and after a couple of months of acting classes, he got Taft Hartley on his first audition by Joe Bologna. Completely in love with acting, Wass never stopped performing. He played Nick Volpe in the award-winning film, "The Wrestler," and Nicholas Cage's brother in "World Trade Center." Wass also worked on "John Wick 2" and the Netflix series "House of Cards." He also teaches at the prestigious acting school Susan Batson Acting Studio in New York.
In this episode, we learn about Wass' life before becoming a Hollywood star and how he discovered his passion for acting. We talk about how hard Hollywood can be, the most common mistakes young actors make, and his experiences as an acting teacher. Wass also shares the takeaways from working with the best directors, his thoughts on self-taping, and much more.
