In today’s episode we’re chatting with Ben Barnes.
His love for storytelling began early: on stage performing with the National Youth Music Theatre. Since then his career has told the story of an artist who possesses true grit, a love for craft, and a desire to explore whatever he hasn’t done. He shares how blind persistence landed him his first agent, and how a secret injury helped him create one of his most recognizable roles.
For Ben, perspective and perseverance is key. Moving through the peaks and valleys of this industry requires trusting what you have to offer and choosing to be empowered regardless of circumstance. And that’s exactly what Ben continues to do. Listen to the podcast below:

As a freelance worker, it’s pretty much like an actor’s life too… to be self-confident, persistent and see that all the sacrifices we do are worth it in the end! Good luck to Ben, hopefully the movie industry will recover after COVID 19… <3July 14th, 2020
