Any space for a returning (Veteran) Actor from Mexican/Latino TV trying to break into the American (assuming) demo so signed on/agreed to be this show for that exposure?

I can see him being annoying as he is used to either, much more money and/or way more production budget (unless this show is well budgeted, so I can find some other reason to be a diva).

If there is already a diva like character then I can shift it. I just thought it would be funny who speaks with a thick accent.

Hey Aiden! Definitely room for an actor like that. And yep the Show is an American production. It's studio is located in Los Angeles, California but it does lots of location shooting too. As for the Show's budget - each episode costs multi-millions to make. It's a cable show and it's critically acclaimed with lots of awards. So the Network is quite generous with their budget. Though there's always drama potential to be made with the characters trying to get the Network to increase the budget even more, delays in filming that cause budget mayhem, etc.

Actors are certainly welcome to have a flair for the dramatic and to have some diva moments (they are the Talent after all and it's a bit expected  ;) ), but just remember that the Show is an anthology series - every actor is replaceable. They'll have to maintain at least a decent working relationship with the crew or really endear themselves to the Showrunners and/or some producers or wow the writing staff to secure consistent casting on the Show. A really troublesome actor that causes too many headaches on set simply wouldn't be contracted to appear in another episode.

Work place conflicts are to be expected though since it makes for interesting character interaction. And it is Hollywood  :D

Hey, Jason!  -grins.-  I love the face claim.  I can never see Nicolas without thinking of him as Tony on Skins.

Hey Biblio, the second I though of a nerdy sound engineer, Tony from skins came to mind. I think he is perfect for the role I would like to achieve with him :)

He is open for connections now as well. If anyone has something in mind, pm me. I think he will have a few run ins with actors, hating the melodramatic in them.

Sorry! I'm actually the source of the holdup - I will hopefully get a chance to look at things a little later today.

Finally getting around to finishing my guy. He's a child actor who split off into tv/film as well, and has enjoyed success in both mediums due to a good work ethic and enjoying the lifestyle.

Mini GM Announcement: I've updated the Taken FC list and the Reserved FC list. Taken FCs are those that are in use by a player that has had their character officially accepted into the game. Reserved FCs are held as a courtesy for those that are in the process of making their sheet so they don't have to worry about someone snatching up their intended FC before they've had a chance to submit them.

Recruitment is still open for any and all crew members. So far we haven't had any directors or producers submitted though so we'd love to see them. Some more writers for the writing team would be fantastic too. As for the cast they're open as well, though we're still not accepting any more female actors at this time.

That's all for now folks!
