NY area trans actors, this is your shot!
tomorrow we begin the process of casting the movie which is scheduled to be shot between January and April of next year. (it’s kind of a big production)
wanna cover all the bases and make sure we cast the widest net so if you’re in the NY tri-state area, an actor, and trans - I’m looking for ya!
