Actor Samuel L Jackson thinks Hollywood can be sleazy and there's often a lot of backstabbing for film roles.
The 'Django Unchained' star, who has appeared in over 140 films including 'Star Wars' and 'The Avengers', revealed that there is a lot of lies in the film industry, reported Contactmusic.
"Parts of it are. People lie to you all the time. It's like the old joke; two agents are walking along the beach, they see a pretty girl and the first guy says, 'Man, I'd really like to have her.' The other agent goes, 'Out of what?', he said.
The 64-year-old also admitted fame has changed since his heyday.
"I don't treat myself like I'm special. But there is a whole new phenomenon with fame now that, I guess, if I was a younger person maybe I'd get caught up in. People pay you huge amounts of money to come to a club and just be there so other people will go.
