Renowned
Hollywood
writer,
director
and
actor
Thomas
Haden
Church
reveals
that
he
had
never
taken
any
formal
training
on
acting
and
for
him
"acting
was
all
by
osmosis".
Haden
Church
popularly
known
for
his
part
in
movies
like
Spider-Man
3
where
he
played
the
infamous
villain
'Sandman'.
He
had
also
featured
in
movies
like
George
of
the
Jungle,
We
Bought
A
Zoo,
Sideways,
All
About
Steve
and
others.
"I
actually
never
had
any
training;
I
did
a
little
bit
of
acting
in
high
school
and
college,
then
I
worked
in
advertising,
which
led
to
a
voiceover
career.
That
is
why
I
moved
to
LA,
to
get
a
bigger
stage
in
terms
of
voiceovers.
Acting
was
all
by
osmosis," said
Haden
Church
He
also
added:
"I
got
an
audition.
I
got
a
movie,
and
worked
on
a
movie
set
for
three
weeks
and
I
played
a
character.
Then
I
was
like,
wow.
I'm
moving
to
LA.
Now,
I
just
do
it
with
my
own
facility
of
creating
characters,
and
hopefully
they're
believable
and
not
stupid."
At
the
moment,
the
actor
is
all
set
to
be
seen
in
TV
series
titled
Divorce.
Here
he
will
be
featured
as
the
lead
protagonist
in
the
story.
