An actor's tone of skin colour matters - Jessica Allain

from Second Chance

British born actor Jessica Allain left her family and home in London to take a chance in LA. Her move was hard and at times desperate but it started to prove successful. She appears in the Netflix hit The Laundromat, alongside Gary Oldman and Antonio Banderas, a film directed by award winning director Steven Soderbergh. Yet, as a black female actor she is still having to endure shocking comments from casting directors about the tone of her skin colour. JESSICA ALLAIN (@jessicaallain) • Instagram photos and videosJessica Allain (@itsjessallain)Jessica AllainSupport the show Hosted on Acast.
