Bradley Cooper: How I make a living has been changed by streaming #Bradley #Cooper

Los Angeles, Jan 23 : Hollywood star Bradley Cooper says streaming has changed how he makes a living but he is grateful to Netflix for taking chances on movies that other companies wouldnt make.Speaking to Kim Masters on her KCRW show The Business, he said: "On a personal level, how I can make a living has completely changed.

The upside (with taking a smaller upfront payment in exchange for a cut of the profits), if it was successful, is that I would be paid a lot more.

Those days are completely gone and there is trepidation I have with that.No question, no question.

"However, Cooper is grateful to streaming services like Netflix for taking a chance on movies, which he thinks would previously not have been made, such as his upcoming Leonard Bernstein biopic Maestro co-starring Jeremy Strong and Carey Mulligan, reports femalefirst.co.uk.He said: "Im just so lucky that Netflix is going to pay for the movie.But thats just so the movie can get made but theres no back end.Thats for the love of the game.Thats why Im doing that movie and Im so grateful that theyre allowing me to make it.Scott Stuber (head of original film at Netflix), thank the Lord."Netflix is the only place that would make that movie.

"Cooper doesnt believe that where a movie is seen can affect how it is received.He explained: "The thing that I always go back to, great content will hit you right between the eyes, no matter what it is, if its an incredible haiku.It can stay with you for years and change your life.

"The movies that changed my life and inspired me to do what I do for a vocation were The Elephant Man, Godfather, Apocalypse Now, Shampoo, Coming Home and Deer Hunter.All of those movies I saw on a 16-inch television set."dc/ksk/ #Bradley #Cooper #changed #Jan #Los Angeles #Uber #Netflix #Hollywood.
