What is it with people who go to university without a single idea about becoming an actor, then fall in love during their studies and go on to be hugely successful in it? That's got to be so annoying for people who've wanted to act for their whole lives but never made it! Chris Pine is another one who accidentally found out acting was their calling whilst pursing a major in English.
He was nervous of making friends when he arrived at university and didn't like the idea of joining a fraternity. He decided that joining a theater group would be the easiest way of socializing with new people, and promptly discovered that he had quite a natural talent. A year after graduating, he landed a small part in 'E.R', and his new career was already off the ground. Some people have all the luck!
