Adria Arjona Facts
- She had a very unsettled childhood as she was regular in touring with her father, who was a well-known Latin American singer. Also, she often had to move between Miami and Mexico City.
- When she moved to New York City to study at The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, her father had asked her to come up with a backup plan such as studying in college but within months, she was so taken up with acting that she realized it was the only thing she wanted.
- While studying at The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, she used to work as a waitress at several New York City restaurants for financial support.
- She had initially turned down an opportunity to audition for her role in Emerald City because she felt that there was no way producers would pick Hispanic actress.
- When she got a call confirming her casting in the TV series Emerald City, she was having dinner at a restaurant in Columbia. She was so overwhelmed by the news that she cried in the middle of the restaurant.
- When she started her career as a TV and movie actor, she had told her manager that she would bag a role in HBO TV series, True Detective. She managed to complete her objective within a year.
- For her role in True Detective, she even didn’t have to go in for an audition. She had done a self-tape in her living room and managed to impress the show producers with it.
- She got a script for her role in True Detective just 3 days before the shooting was to start.
