I’m not particularly attractive. Can we create a list of female actors who aren’t cast for their looks?

I’ll start. Hattie McDaniel. Changed Hollywood forever for the better and didn’t do it as an ingenue. Kathy Bates. Love her so so much. Bridget Everett. Her performance in Patti Cake$ was heartbreaking, which leads me to Danielle MacDonald. Killed it in Patti...

Hair crisis

I have alopecia where the hair follicles are scarred. The follicles have been closing but I've been trying a dermaroller to combat this. Not consistently though. I want to know if I should just give up and be bald because if I let it grow it doesn't suit me...

Personally I really never 'got' the Meryl Streep hype. But after seeing this I almost felt quite emotional when the penny dropped... This is an actor who has poured every fibre of her being into the roles she's played. She's relentless and unstoppable. I'

Hi guys! I wrote this monologue today to be emotional and sad. As a beginner actress, I’ve never attempted a dramatic acting piece like this before.. I would love any criticism! Thank you SO much! I really appreciate you all. :)

When is it a bad actor versus bad casting?

So I’m watching Wonder Woman 84 and disliked it. Started listening to some reviews who praise Gal Gadot (and praised her for her solo movie) but had a different tune during the sequel. Now, excluding just the external parts like writing, directing, etc, and...

Agents

So I live in Brisbane, Australia. Definitely not the hub for film & television. I've been spending lots of time taking a look at different actors agents on IMDB Pro. The most common Agency I see across lesser known actors to very famous actors is William...

Instead of being very limiting, I feel like the O-1B/EB-1 requirements are actually in favor of the actor.

This is for people who ever thought of wanting to go to America straight away to "chase their dream". No matter how very limiting the visa options are in terms of requirements, it's favoring us as an alien entering the United States. Acting is an expensive...

Recommendations for clear, helpful scripts (from the voice actor POV)

Hello all, I am planning to hire voice actors to record short voice clips for a game. I have checked the libraries and resources for sample scripts, but I am not a voice actor (alas) so I don’t have a good sense of what the difference is between a script that...

Looking for actors who shot their own reel (and also short films) for feedback

Like the title says, I'm looking for actors who shoot their own material to create a reel. I'm currently at a point where I could use a reel but don't have one, partially due to not having received any footage from the short and student films I acted in yet...

Would you use this app?

I am thinking of making an app that lets actors act together as animated characters in real-time. Basically, it would be like Apple's Animoji's but you could record scenes together, import scripts, etc... This is not a money making thing, I just want to see...

So my name is Akram Hasan. I want to be an actor, but the problem is, is that someone already has my name, except it is named Akram Hassan but with an extra s. Is it fine if I keep my last name the way it is or should it be changed?
