Robin Wright is a respected actress, but she has never been close to being the biggest star in the world. At 10, her dream was to be a dancer on Broadway and she trained almost all day.
At 14, she was a model and did advertising for Maybelline and Doritos. After beating Meg Ryan and Courteney Cox in the casting of The Princess Bride, she did not want to ruin it, she lacked academic training and was terrified of working with respected actors.
