Elliot James Langridge is a British actor known for Northern Soul, Hollyoaks, The War Below and his podcast LIFE IN FILM. In this episode, he talks about the highs and lows of an acting career, turning down another year on Hollyoaks to pursue a film that took two and a half years to happen, spending years out of work, dealing with rejection and imposter syndrome, and why resilience matters in an industry where your next opportunity can come when you least expect it.
