Today Alyshia sits down with Pierson Fodé: an actor who you likely have seen all over your Netflix homepage this year. Pierson breaks down the brutal soap-opera contract that became the "best acting bootcamp" he ever had, memorizing up to 120 pages a day, and how he later reinvented himself as an actor to shake casting directors' "soapy" perceptions. We also get into why he loves self tapes including the unconventional farm-boy slate that impressed James Gunn during his Superman audition. He shares his audition approach and belief that hard work is your luck in this industry. Pierson now stars in Netflix's upcoming holiday rom-com A Merry Little Ex-Mas and recently led Netflix's #1 film worldwide The Wrong Paris. Up next, he joins Jennifer Lopez in Robert Zemeckis' highly anticipated thriller The Last Mrs. Parrish. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Pierson Fodé right here.
