"The Imperial Class isn't picked based only on acting prowess or the years you've been an actor."
"If that were the case, you'd see dozens of familiar names in it. But you don't. Because the Imperial Class has a standard."
"That's why it's called a class. It's a tier, a rank—not something you get just for being famous or sticking around long enough."
"There are three major classes. First, the Rookie Class. Sounds simple, right? But even that's tough to crack. You need at least ten recognized acting awards. Not just nominations. And on top of that, three box office films with over 10 million viewers and/or two dramas that break a 20% real-time rating. That alone filters out most actors."
"Then comes the Regency Class. That's when you know someone's a real contender. Thirty awards. Five movies with 10 million viewers and/or four dramas that hit the 20% mark. And that's still not enough for Imperial."
