Actress Hilary Swank says that her ouster from teen drama Beverly Hills 90210 boosted her career.
Washington, Nov 9 : Actress Hilary Swank says that her ouster from teen drama Beverly Hills 90210 boosted her career.
The Oscar winner for Boys Don't Cry and Million Dollar Baby believes that her success came from the opportunities, which came in the months after she was axed from the US teen drama series.
"Being fired from Beverly Hills 90210 was most definitely a milestone because two months later I got 'Boys Don't Cry', but at the time I was devastated because I thought, 'Wow, I'm not even a good enough actress to be in 90210, the eighth season, when it wasn't even a hit anymore!' " Contactmusic quoted her as saying.
The 35-year-old star thinks her success has a lot to do with "fate".
"I'm definitely spiritual. I wasn't baptised or christened or anything. I didn't grow up going to church but I definitely believe in a higher power. And I do believe in fate," she said.
"What happened with '90210' is a great example of fate and destiny. Just trusting that when something happens, it might not feel great, but knowing the future has something else in store for you.
"I also believe you change your fate by choices you make everyday. A lot of people maybe feel they're destined to do something or be something, but you can't sit back and wait for that to happen. I believe you play an active role in your fate," she added.
