- I think I need to back away from the whole TV approach, says Mischa.
The 23-year-old signed on to Ashton Kutcher's modelling drama The Beautiful Life earlier this year which was scrapped due to poor ratings after just two episodes. Barton is now reconsidering her acting future and realises the small screen might not be for her, reports people.com.
"I think I need to back away from the whole TV approach. That whole world of network television, probably isn't, for me, a good idea now. I need to start reading for more serious roles," she said.
Barton insists she will take her time to decide her next project. "It's too early to tell yet. I'm passing on all the [early] offers, because that's not the stuff you want to do. I want to go fight for interesting things and look for something that's going to be interesting for me... as a role," she said.
