Issa Rae’s Time on Black mirror She has been a goal in several different ways, including interpretation of an actress who wants to change Hollywood perceptions about her.
RAE stars in the third episode of Black mirror Season 7, “Hotel Reverie”, In which Rae’s character, Hollywood actress, Brandy Friday, participates in an extremely immersive remake of a British classic movie. It is so immersive that Brandy is trapped in another dimension and has to live with the script of the movie if he wants to escape.
“Interpreting an actress who feels like Hollywood perceives her and wants to risk and take the reins of her career, I think at so many levels,” said Trey Mangum, publisher of Bravity/Shadow and Act. “Maybe (I) could imagine -in despair, I would participate in an experiment like this, but not so. It is really bleak right now in Hollywood, and that is also what attracted me.”
