Episode description

Welcome to That One Audition! Today’s guest is the multi-talented John Patrick Amedori, a musician turned actor, writer, director. In today's episode Amedori talks about how he approaches acting similar to jazz music. He discusses how he booked his first 2 roles as an 11 year old in Almost Famous and M. Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable by trusting his instincts. Find out why Brad Pitt left production of Almost Famous after watching Amedori's original audition tape for the movie.

From acting opposite Blake Lively in Gossip Girl to his breakout role in Netflix’s Dear White People, Amedori has made a name for himself. Now, you can catch him every Friday on STARZ in Three Women, where he’s stealing scenes as Jack alongside Shailene Woodley.
