Addison Rae is booked and busy! The TikTok star turned actress has just landed another big movie role in the upcoming blockbuster Fashionista.
In 2021, Addison made her acting debut in Netflix remake He's All That. Since then, Addison signed a multi-million dollar deal with Netflix to star in more movies for the streaming giant and she's even expressed her interest in starring in HBO's Euphoria.
So, it'll come as no surprise that Addison has her sights set on dominating Hollywood and, according to reports, several studios have been clambering for Addison to lead their projects following the success of He's All That.

As to be expected, the internet had opinions about the news that Addison would again be returning to the big screen.

This honestly sums up the current state of studios in the film industry. Addison Rae is going to have a film career simply because of money not talent. https://t.co/k3CKuCNJvf

i feel like netflix asking me for more and more money every month and then turning around and spending it on addison rae movies is like me giving money to the government and asking for better roads and more money for schools and then they just overfund the military

People may believe that Addison just walked into the acting biz but she has previously stated that she's actually taken acting classes and she had to work "much harder" than most to be taken seriously.
In an interview with Elle, Addison said: "People don’t realize is I’ve always wanted to do acting, I’ve always wanted to do music. I’ve always wanted to do all these other things that they didn’t really get to see or know, because I just started being known when I was 19 years old.
"People haven’t really seen the background, or the classes I used to take and things like that. So I try to tell myself, ‘You have to work that much harder to get people to take you seriously.'"
