Drunken Thought While Watching Marvel's Shang Chi...

Does anyone else break down the scenes by shots (while discounting the soundtrack), as to how long the director made the actors hold for the many reaction shots... Or is it just me?   As an aside, way to go /u/SimuShangChi for making us Canadian actors...

I did it! I took the first step!

I finally worked up the courage to apply for a role. I’m sure I won’t get it because my profile on actors access is thin at best. But I have it a go!! That’s a win in my book any day.

Am I SAG eligible if I’m abroad and in a SAG movie?

I live abroad and was cast as a supporting role in a movie. We shot a few years ago. There was a well known American sag actor in the movie. I’m American…. if the movie was sag (I’m assuming it is because the actor who is in sag was in it), does this make me...
