Jonny Weldon exploded on social media in 2021, with viral comedy sketches that took the acting industry by storm - putting him firmly on the radar of superstars like Ricky Gervais and casting directors across the entire TV landscape.

Since then, he’s turned online momentum into serious screen credits - starring in House Of The Dragon, Brassic, Netflix smash One Day, and Season 2 of Disney+ mega-hit Rivals.

In this 2 HOUR member-only mastermind, we break down Jonny’s proven social media strategy for getting seen in the 2026/ 27 industry, show you how to create scroll-stopping, shareable content using nothing more than your smartphone, explain how to turn viral traction into real auditions, self-tape requests and paid acting work - and members of Act On This jump on camera for some 1-2-1 coaching too!
