Thoughts on acting, filmmaking, and the journey of starting over at 52.

Projects
I am four weeks into a rotation offshore with no acting work until August, which has given me time to think about how I ended up with seven films booked through 2027. It all goes back to a bad shoot in a park in 2023 and a message from a DP.

Networking
Every real thing happening in my career right now came from a person I met, not a submission I sent. Four names. Stephen, David, John, Toto. Each one a different shape of what knowing people actually looks like, three years in, when "networking" stops being a buzzword and starts being the work.
