For Kim Cattrall<\/strong>, the craft of acting isn\u2019t just a job; it\u2019s a profound, life-affirming passion that she now ranks above sex and drugs<\/strong>. The iconic actor, best known for her role as Samantha Jones<\/strong> in Sex and the City<\/strong>, recently opened up about her artistic journey.<\/p>\n Speaking at the Tribeca Festival Lisboa, the Sex and the City star opened up about her early struggles and eventual love for acting<\/strong>. Cattrall recalled that after leaving the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City, \u201cTo go out to the real world, where people could say no, was terrifying to me.\u201d<\/p>\n Before she became synonymous with Samantha Jones, Cattrall faced a string of auditions for roles she found limiting. \u201cI was so disappointed that they were asking so little of me, other than to cry or to be hurt or emotionally unstable or drunk,\u201d she said. Coming from a theater background, where strong female characters were common, these early experiences were disheartening. Still, the actress learned to turn rejection into resilience.<\/p>\n Now, decades into her career, Cattrall has not only made peace with the ups and downs of the profession but has come to embrace it with deep passion. \u201cI love my job. I love it. It\u2019s difficult, it\u2019s complicated, but when it goes well, it\u2019s so satisfying,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n That satisfaction, she revealed, can feel almost transcendent. \u201cYou have a dream of doing this profession and working with people who have the highest point in their evolution, and to be part of that, it\u2019s better than any drug or any sexual climactic experience,\u201d Cattrall declared. (via The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>)<\/p>\n Looking ahead, the actress said she wants to focus on joy and curiosity in whatever time she has left on screen and off.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Devanshi Basu on <\/em>ComingSoon.net<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The post Kim Cattrall Picks Acting Over \u2018Any Sexual Climactic Experience\u2019<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For Kim Cattrall, the craft of acting isn\u2019t just a job; it\u2019s a profound, life-affirming passion that she now ranks above sex and drugs.
