“Alicia is a FORCE.”

-Dom Cutrupi, Director

Alicia Read is a compelling new lead in the rapidly evolving world of vertical film, bringing depth, magnetism, and maturity to a genre just beginning to embrace mid-life stories.

VERTICAL CREDITS

With nine vertical films under her belt, including 2 hit shows, Alicia is redefining what it means to star in this space.

Biologically 50 years of age, she’s proving that talent, range, and presence don’t come with an expiration date.

ACCOLADES

I knew when I referred Alicia for the lead role that she would nail it. She carried the emotional weight of the story with depth, precision, and grace. Her ability to hit technically demanding marks for the vertical format while delivering grounded, emotionally rich performances was remarkable. She came to set fully prepared, but also brought incredible instincts and improvisation skills that gave her co-stars so much to work with.

Beyond her talent, Alicia was a steady, positive presence through long 12-hour days: kind, generous, and attentive to everyone on set. She not only knows her way around a production, she elevates it.

I’m so excited that verticals are opening to mid-life actors. Alicia is a force, and one of the faces who will help legitimize this new format.
