Arquette also had roles in 1998's Hope Floats with Sandra Bullock and 2000's The Whole Nine Yard with Matthew Perry.

The star also said: 'They build you up to rip you to shreds.'

'And it seems like it’s actually, in a lot of ways, gotten worse in a lot of areas of entertainment — in any business.'
