This episode's guest is Maddy Lea. She is a 9 year old up and coming actress from Fort Worth, Texas and has been in various performing arts since the age of 5. Maddy Lea has been featured in several SAG eligible projects including one of the current nationwide Great Wolf Lodge commercials. She has also acted in community theatre as well as numerous independent films within the last few years. When Maddy Lea is not performing in film and television projects, she is also making a name for herself as a professional cosplayer within the DFW area. She was a featured guest at the annual FanExpo in Dallas, TX.

Maddy Lea is also an accomplished dancer and model in both print and runway. Maddy Lea’s aspirations continue to grow every day and she one day dreams of starring in a full feature horror film.

Maddy plays the titular character of a film called Alora that Michael Gibson Jr co-wrote along with Nicholas Muthersbaugh. The story is about a single mother who is training as a NASA astronaut to potentially go and visit a new planet labeled that has been discovered that is within the Goldilocks Zone of a star. The conflict arises in that she has to make a choice to going on the mission of a lifetime versus the love of her daughter that she would have to leave behind. It's an amazing story and I hope you can check it out. The film has been selected into the 2019 Denton Black Film Festival. The world premiere is on Saturday, January 26, 2019 at 6:15 p.m. at the Campus Theater in Denton, Texas.
