For Regina Mirova, checking Backstage’s casting notices regularly for over a year and a half has landed her numerous roles, including a spot on “We Are Stars,” a comedic Web series. The job led Mirova to even more acting opportunities.
“I was given a small part in a couple of the episodes, which also made me SAG-eligible and opened new possibilities for me,” Mirova says. “Now I can apply for union projects as well, which is very exciting and gives me more options to submit.... I’m not a comedy-type actress, so it was a great experience just to try.”
Trying new things as an actor is something Mirova is always set on doing. She enjoys being challenged and says that she mainly searches for roles outside of her comfort zone. Looking ahead, Mirova has some ideas for what’s next.
“Right now I’m on the hunt for some twisted action, adventure, or sci-fi films,” she says. “Those are my favorite ones.”
