## Resource

In this episode of Hollywood Rebooted Podcast, we sit down with one of 2026’s most exciting breakout talents, Zander Torres. From the grind of the LA indie scene to sharing the screen with industry titans, Zander opens up about the reality of being a working actor in today's rapidly shifting cinematic landscape. Zander dives deep into his experience working alongside Timothée Chalamet, sharing the specific "on-set secrets" and professional habits he learned from observing one of the generation's biggest stars. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when the cameras aren't rolling, this is for you. We also break down the "New Standard" for auditions: The world of casting has moved almost entirely to recorded submissions. Zander shares his proven strategy for booking the room from your living room, including technical tips, performance adjustments for the lens, and how to make a lasting impression on casting directors without ever meeting them in person.
