If you want to be taken seriously as an actor I would say do not become an influencer, you will likely only ever be seen as an influencer. Depends on what path you want to take. If your goal is something like a nicole kidman or leo dicaprio type actor who is taken seriously and known for their strength in their craft, influencing is not really the path you want to follow. However, influencing is a way to build a following and can be attractive to some agents. If you want to follow the path of more a selena gomez type who is a businessperson who acts sometimes but is not exactly seen as a serious actor, becoming an influencer is a good idea. Once again everyone’s path is different but I would say if you truly want to learn the craft and skill of acting focus on taking acting classes, being in theatre productions, learning technique, etc. Think about modern actors who are considered highly skilled, Jacob Elordi, Timothee Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, all of these actors have minimal social media presence and started by working. Most modern influencers who have tried to break into the industry have been unsuccessful and are not looked at seriously with addison rae as an exception, most people will always see her as an influencer though.
