WHENEVER ACTING, I TRY MY BEST, AND MY ONLY BESR. I DEDICATED MY WHOLE SELF. THEREFORE, I PRODUCE BRILLIANT SCENES.

Saamya RussellSaamya Russell is my name and to be a part of this cast would be an amazing opportunity and experience. Paul Giamatti is an acting genius. I have been following his work as an actor since the movie Sideways. The writing and the concept of the show Billions is unmatched by any other show currently on. I do have acting experience and gravitate and excel at roles that demand authority, power and charisma- 5’10”, 130lbs and filled with charisma, untapped talent and drive. That about sums it up. 0 Reply April 10, 2016

Tanisha LawrenceProfessional acting course with Verve Studios starts in May of 2015. Im very flexible, being homeschooled means I could be on set 24/7. Only downside is being from Melbourne Australia my transportation may be difficult. I’m very charming (and narcissistic apparently), funny and witty. I could write a 1000 page essay on why I’d be a great actress for the movie but I really feel like I’ve got some kickass potential and I could add something really great and special to the set and, if I may say this, the acting community in this movie. Im really inspired by young actors like Chandler Riggs and Chloë Grace Moretz, young actors are what really fuelled my want to be an actress. But even a lot of actors and actresses that are a lot older and more experienced such as Andrew Lincoln and Vera Farmiga. To be able to learn from amazing actors and actresses I’ve seen do such incredible work would be absolutely fantastic and really stretch my mind and help me grow as an actress. I’ve been in love with acting for so long and to be a part of this movie and to work with amazing actors and set workers and directors would be like an amazing fever dream come true. Thank you so much for taking your time! Just let me know if i can do anything else or give you any more information on myself. 0 Reply February 7, 2015
