I booked a Netflix film, told everyone I was in it, and then discovered I'd been cut from the movie

🎭 🩷 THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! 🩷 🎭 🧋 BUY ME A COFFEE 🧋→ https://buymeacoffee.com/jilldaltonnyc In 2018, I booked a role in the Netflix film *Tigertail*, written and directed by Alan Yang (*Master of None*). I spent the day filming scenes opposite legendary actor Tzi Ma, met an incredible cast, and couldn't wait to see the finished movie. There was only one problem. When Tigertail premiered on Netflix, my scenes were gone. In this video, I share the behind-the-scenes story of booking the role, working on set, discovering I'd been cut from the final film, and the valuable lesson every actor eventually learns about control, rejection, and serving the story. If you're an actor, filmmaker, artist, or creative professional, this story is a reminder that success isn't always measured by what appears on screen. #acting #netflix #tigertail #actorslife #selftape #filmmaking #behindthescenes THANKS FOR WATCHING.
