Matthew Lillard Declines Dancing With the Stars

News summary

Matthew Lillard revealed that he turned down an offer to participate in 'Dancing with the Stars' after the box office failure of 'Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed' in 2004. He believed that joining the reality show would hinder his chances of winning an Academy Award, stating, 'If I do Dancing with the Stars, I’ll be famous and not a great actor.' Lillard experienced a career reevaluation during this period, feeling caught up in the pursuit of fame rather than focusing on his craft. Despite the initial setbacks, he continued to voice Shaggy in various 'Scooby-Doo' projects and starred in 'Five Nights at Freddy's,' which has led to a sequel in production. Ultimately, Lillard expressed gratitude for his career journey, acknowledging both the highs and lows he has faced. He emphasized his desire to reset his expectations and prioritize his identity as an actor over celebrity status.
