Often, actors begin to build a career in Hollywood in their youth, but not everyone succeeds right away.

Samuel L. Jackson
In his youth, Jackson became interested in theater, but for many years he only got episodic roles or work in small, independent films. Everything changed when the actor was already 46 years old. The role in the cult film Pulp Fiction instantly made him a star and to this day Jackson appears in several blockbusters a year.
