Loren Escandón said that working on the film “Shirley” was a life-changing experience for her. “First and foremost, I have to emphasize that anyone unfamiliar with the incredible story of [the first-ever Black congresswoman] Shirley Chisholm must watch this movie,” the Colombian actress and filmmaker said from her Los Angeles home. “Personally, I was unaware of her until the audition landed in my lap. From that moment, I knew I couldn't let this learning opportunity slip away. What truly made the experience unforgettable was the camaraderie among the cast. Sharing moments with artists like Regina King, Terrence Howard and the late Lance Reddick was both humbling and inspiring. Despite the chaos of a bustling set and the added hurdle of unpredictable weather, each actor remained deeply committed to their craft.” Escandón – who may also be seen in “The Baxters” – shares more about her work and travels in Instagram, X and Threads (username @lorenescandon).
