@user609306143323: Asia Kate Dillon, best known for starring in Billions and Orange Is the New Black, is turning to an unexpected career move after struggling to find acting work. The 41-year-old performer recently shared their résumé on Instagram, asking for opportunities in the food service industry as acting jobs become harder to find. Dillon explained that they began working in restaurants as a teenager, starting as a dishwasher and food runner before becoming a floor manager at several Brooklyn establishments. Then, in 2015, they transitioned to working full-time in theater, film, and television. But after more than a decade focused on acting, Dillon says they need to return to the industry where their working life began. "Acting work has all but diminished, and I'm in need of service work once more," they wrote, explaining that many performers are facing similar challenges, particularly transgender, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming actors. Dillon became widely recognized for playing Taylor Mason in the Showtime drama Billions, appearing from the second season until the series ended in 2023. They also portrayed Brandy Epps in Orange Is the New Black and appeared in John Wick: Chapter 3. Their latest situation highlights the uncertainty many performers can face when steady acting opportunities disappear, even after years of building a career. Dillon's willingness to share their résumé publicly also challenges the idea that success in Hollywood guarantees lasting financial security. Behind the red carpets and famous roles, even established performers sometimes have to return to where they started just to keep moving forward. Should actors be more open about the financial struggles behind life in Hollywood? \#AsiaKateDillon #Billions #OrangeIsTheNewBlack #HollywoodNews #EntertainmentNews

She is kind of type cast. Her personality is the same in everything she has done so far. They may think she just doesn’t have or how range.
