Matthew Lawrence Speaks
"There have been many times in my life where I've been propositioned to get a huge role," Lawrence explained. "I've lost my agency because I went to the hotel room...of a very prominent Oscar award winning director who showed up in his robe, asked me to take my clothes off, and said he needed to take Polaroids of me. And if I did x, y, and z, I would be the next Marvel character. I didn't do that and my agency fired me because I left this director's room."
