Back in June I mentioned that I had gotten to work on an amazing acting job. At the time I wasn't allowed to say anything about it. The commercial was released a couple days ago but unfortunately my little scene (shot with two other actors) didn't make the final cut. I'm disappointed that that happened but it's an unfortunate reality of the industry. I am still thrilled to have been a part of the project and to have gotten to work with the incredible director of the commercial, Alejandro González Iñárritu (Amores Perros, 21 Grams, Babel). He auditioned hundreds of people in four cities so it means a lot to me just to have been selected for the project in the first place. The ad spot is for Facebook and it would have been amazing to have been in it but it's just one of those acting industry things. The commercial is below...

Thanks Sam and Rebecca. Me and two other actors were hanging out on a couch. We shot about four different scenarios and scenes but they were all pretty active (playing chess, looking at photos) and the commercial is pretty clean. I can see why it didn’t fit with the final vision.
