Giovannie Cruz, Actor
Hello and Welcome!
As an actress and filmmaker with 10+ years experience, I have a passion for working with artful and authentic individuals on Film & TV projects, including "The Suicide Squad" for Warner Brothers Films. You might have also seen me in national TV commercials or on popular series like "Queen of the South," "NCIS: New Orleans" or OWN's "Queen Sugar." It's my life's ambition to work on and execute female, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ led stories for mainstream audiences. I hope to one day join the ranks of writer/ creators such as Phoebe Waller Bridge, Lisa Joy Nolan, and Shonda Rhimes, among others.
