1. While I am a decent looking guy, and I do clean up nicely, I would never be the leading man, and my fragile ego occasionally needs to be the center of attention. I would be the quirky sidekick or roommate in those scenarios. And even though the occasional more average looking schlub makes it, they are usually bringing a lot of other skills to the table which I also don't have.
2. I have a drifting accent... so if I was in a scene with someone with an accent, within two minutes, I would be talking with that accent, which would be ok if everyone was talking with that accent, but that's generally not how it works. I mean, I've had phone conversations where the other party thought I was mocking them by doing their accent. And without an external influence, I can't maintain any accent, even my own, consistently.
3. I can't remember lines word for word. If I was on a project where you could improvise a little, I'd be great. But anything that requires a verbatim recitation of lines... that would be a little problematic. So that means no stage work, no Shakespeare and the like, which would really limit my versatility.
4. As I indicated in my first point, I am a little bit of a primadonna sometimes. I admit that. But I would likely be the guy that calls other people out for being the same way... and that isn't popular behavior.
5. If I got famous enough, I'd likely belt some people.
