“Seinfeld” is undoubtedly the largest sitcom to be broadcast on network television, it therefore follows that its Core-Quatre ensemble is classified as one of the brightest actors in the history of form. During his nine seasons, the “show on nothing” made us scream as banal experiences as the expectation of a table in a Chinese restaurant, trying to find your car in a parking lot and the Soup order.
It is impossible to design a better version of “Seinfeld”, but fans of the series probably wondered from time to time, which could have happened was the co-creator of the program Larry David had chosen to play George Costanza, the character based on his real friendship with the star of the series. Although David was an unknown relative of viewers at the time, he had played the “Fridays” and “Saturday Night Live” and was a seasoned stand-up actor. Seinfeld had only played in a handful of films and television projects (including the showtime film directed by Danny Devito “The Ratings Game”), so why did David not succeed in making the jump for the Sitcom interpreter?
While David would eventually prove his value, then some as an actor in his HBO series “Curb Your Enthusiasm, he remained on the outskirts of” Seinfeld “(although he gave a memorable voice performance as the owner of New York Yankees, George Steinbrenner). So why did not claim the piece he wrote, George Steinbrenner). as ?
Larry David thought he was a ugly actor
In a 2015 interview With the New York PostDavid offered an blunt assessment of his acting capacity, jokingly: “I was inspired to become an actor because I was a bad actor.” If he was not convinced that he could play himself in front of the Seinfeld (who, it must be said, has a limited talent as an actor), it was logical to find someone who could transmit his neuroses convincingly – and they could not have found a better ship for David’s hazelnut than Jason Alexander.
Alexander has always been full of praise for David, and, because we have seen how David plays an increased version of himself on “Curb your enthusiasm”, it is just to say that David de David de David may have faced, if not Michael Richards.
According to Seinfeld in 2021 Pioneers of the television interviewDavid was more focused on writing the show (until he left the series). “He [David] Had many more ideas than I had on what we should do and should not do, “said Seinfeld.” At that time, he was not really interested in acting. “In fact, by breast, the two have never really discussed the possibility that David acts in the series.
David therefore simply had no interest in acting before he did, how much he became a perennial candidate for the exceptional main actor in a series of comedy at the Primetime Emmy Awards. Maybe then he will amaze us with his previously hidden talents as a vibraphonist of jazz. Larry David contains multitudes.
