Michael Cera considered quitting acting after his role in Superbad launched him into superstardom in Hollywood.
The actor famous for his roles in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and Juno commented on what it was like to be thrown into the spotlight. After landing a part in the TV series Arrested Development, Cera was able to find widespread success in 2007 when his movies Superbad and Juno came out, launching him into the Hollywood spotlight.. “I didn’t know how to handle walking down the street. Fame makes you very uncomfortable in your own skin, and makes you paranoid and weird.
The weekend Superbad came out, Cera went to a bar with his friends, “and it was a mistake. It was like a burning feeling the whole time, just like everybody was so aware of me.” He continues, “I really didn’t know if I was going to keep being an actor.” However, at the time, he was already committed to his next star vehicle, Edgar Wright’s action comedy Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. “I was already committed to it, and went and did it, and obviously feel so grateful that that happened.
