Mimi Marquis
- Actress
- Additional Crew
Prior to moving to Wilmington, NC, Mimi worked in, and still does, the travel industry. Moving to North Carolina was supposed to be so she could take it easy and relax at the beach, however, Mimi started as an extra on Reprisal to take her mind off the stress of Hurricane Florence, when her husband suffered a heart attack and was in the hospital for a month. Working in a totally different industry helped with the PTSD, and she found she really enjoyed the camaraderie with crew. Her biggest thrill to date has been to be a featured extra on Halloween Kills (2020) where she rubbed elbows with Mike Myers (The Shape) and made it onto the "big" screen. Working as a full-time stand in on The Summer I Turned Pretty has provided an insight into just how much work goes into making entertainment, and how hard crews work.
