Jodie FosterJodie Foster has revealed that when she was a child star, she couldn’t imagine acting for the rest of her life.

Jodie made her acting debut at the age of 3 in a television commercial and by the time she hit her teens, she had appeared in over a dozen film and made-for-TV movies.

She explained recently: “I thought it was kind of a dumb job until I was about 12.”

“I thought I would be like a writer or a lawyer or work in broadcasting or politics. I’m very intellectual and I just didn’t think there was any room for that.”
