You're going to need headshots, demo reels, and SAG membership even for small roles. Agents definitely help too.
I suggest you stay in school and get a degree. Get as much experience as possible with training and stage. Then try submitting yourself for roles. www.actorsaccess.com www.backstagewest.com are great sites.
Good Luck

This sort of post is frequent and a little sad.
The media is full of stories of rags-to-riches stories but there's no reality in it.
You cannot engineer success but talent will out.
Dedicated actors may never transcend small-scale theatre while a good-looking ham may become an icon.
But they are ACTORS, not some dreamer on the dole.
If it were THAT easy, we'd all be famous.
But be careful what you wish for.
Fame does not pay the rent.

A first suggestion would be to learn to spell Hollywood correctly. Then, you might want to move on the the word character.
There are a hell of a lot of people who want that minor acting job as much as you do who are going to fight tooth and nail for it.
Perfection is probably going to go a long way, and, frankly, you don't seem to give a damn.

Go to Hollywood. find an agent, get some head shot photos, take a few acting classes, got to auditions, and get a job at night so you can pay for it all. But, be prepared to be a "starving actor" for a while. Persevere. Who knows what might happen? Follow your dream and if doesn't work out, at least you tried...
Good luck!

You need a showreel and dedication.
If there was a simple 5 steps to becoming famous I would think a lot more people would take that than work 9-5 each day.
