“Pose” Actor Jason Rodriguez Forms New Talent Agency

Jason Rodriguez, the unequivocal new face of voguing and “Pose” superstar, has formed a new talent agency called Arraygency. 

Rodriguez along with Ricardo Sebastián, Rodriguez’s longtime manager turned business partner, announced the formation of their new talent agency, Arraygency, with the singular mission of bringing BIPOC, Queer and Trans people to the forefront of all creative industries.

As a new agency, the duo is placing an important and specific spotlight on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion to better meet the needs of BIPOC, Queer and Trans creatives in the entertainment industry and ensure equal access to opportunities for all.

In a joint statement, Rodriguez and Sebastián said, “As BIPOC Queer creatives and business owners we knew we had a unique opportunity to create a specialized – and much needed – service for members of our community. We have a deep, and personal, understanding of their talents and voices and it is our hope to bring these people center stage and allow them to shine as bright as possible.” 

Arraygency will be based in New York City and is now accepting submissions for representation.
