Why do so many actors turn director?

298 views

I wouldn’t think those skill sets are easily transferable seeing how much a director is in charge of. Like how did so many of the actors in The Office, also direct episodes? Bonus: does someone else stand in as director when you’re acting in a scene that you’re the director of that entire project?

I feel like almost everyone has an idea for a movie they want to make. Many actors are people with the money and connections to actually attempt to make that movie a reality, not to mention having many social contacts within the hollywood sphere of influence
