At 5 feet 10 inches tall, Minnie Driver thinks she has a leg up in Hollywood, although not always.
"Actually, sometimes it works against me," Driver told Cosmopolitan. "There have been actors who haven't been willing to work with someone three inches taller than them. But the thing about being tall is that as soon as you walk into a room, everyone knows it."You either shrink and hide or you throw your shoulders back and charge right in. I learned that charging felt more comfortable for me."
The British actress started out in English TV before moving onto feature films in "Circle of Friends" in 1995. She went on to appear in "Sleepers," "Big Night," "Grosse Pointe Blank" and "Hard Rain" before landing an Academy Award nomination for "Good Will Hunting."
