Easy Street (the Hard Way): A Memoir - Plot & Excerpts
The role does start with a B; it’s just not Beauty,” my agent said. “Don’t send it!” “Hear me out. The writing is great, the team is great, and CBS has ordered a go pilot. And you are on a very short list for one of the leads.” “The Beast, right? Don’t send it.” The two films I was most known for up until that point had me completely and unrecognizably covered in makeup. And I kinda had this gut feeling that maybe my time spent behind bars like that had served its purpose. I’m thinking that if I had been in Quest and Rose in roles in which people knew it was me, then maybe I’d be getting better offers. I didn’t know whether I wanted to be the Lon Chaney of my generation. But the next morning, when I open up the front door to get the newspaper, instead there’s an envelope from my agent with a copy of the pilot script for Beauty and the Beast. I called him up, saying, “Did you not fucking hear me? I told you. I told you not to send me this script. Why’d you do that?”
