Jared Leto has undoubtedly achieved extraordinary success both in Hollywood and in the rock world. The Oscar-winning actor and Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman has been a presence in both industries for more than two decades. On Friday, he checked into a newly opened Marylebone hotel in London to promote the band's first big release in five years, It's The End of The World but It's A Beautiful Day.
Speaking to The Agency in London, the 51-year-old star opened up about his fears and learnings, and revealed the importance of preserving his familial relationship with his older brother, Shannon, who he formed the band with in 1998. He was candid in his explanation of his rise to success, saying "From the inside, it always just seems a bit of a hot mess with a lot of problems to solve, a lot of work to do, a lot of gratitude these days as well. The older you get the more gratitude I think one has for the opportunity to put albums out, to make music, to go on tour, to do it with my brother, Shannon."
Jared also shared his passion for music and writing songs. He explained that it was always important for the music to speak for itself, rather than being dominated by his acting career. He laughed when recounting the numerous times fans failed to connect the dots between him and the band.
The Dallas Buyers Club star also spoke about the challenges of making an album. He said, "It's hard to finish an album. It's hard to make a music video. It's hard to put an album out. There are harder things to do in life but it has its own unique pressures and its own challenges. I think there's this idea that once you arrive in a place, then you're there. No, that's when you actually start working even harder, when you have those opportunities that you've dreamed of."
Jared ended his revelations by noting that he was a big believer in shooting for one's wildest dreams. He said, "You never know, they might just happen… and then get ready!" Thirty Seconds to Mars’ sixth studio album, It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day, is out now.
