Toronto continues to hold the title of Hollywood North considering major movies, and TV shows are consistently being filmed in the city. So much so that we see these beloved celebs roaming our cities, enjoying our lovely restaurants, and posing with fans.
Just last month, Del Toro was spotted at PAI Toronto and posed for the picture alongside Hollywood stars Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac, Christopher Waltz, and Charles Dance.
Rather than simply spotting celebs in the city, why not work with them? Make sure to apply online and good luck!
