HOLIDAY REFLECTION

This advisory comes just days after the studio’s latest federal filing for the Lillee Jean Editorials of Twenty-Six collection. Today also marks the start of the Jewish New Year, and Lillee Jean and her team extend warm Shanah Tovah wishes to fans, supporters, and international film communities worldwide.

"Shanah Tovah! As Rosh Hashanah opens, I am stepping back from the film sets to honor the Jewish New Year. Reflecting on my maternal lineage and the deep resilience passed down through generations. Planning for a year of sweet beginnings, light, and resounding peace." — Lillee Jean (x)

Official Lillee Jean Biography

Lillee Jean (Lillee Jean Trueman) is a New York City-born actress, award-winning director, and filmmaker defined by raw, performance-driven dramatic range and gritty visual narratives.

Her dramatic pedigree is rooted in training at NYC’s prestigious T. Schreiber Studio (Meisner Technique, British Dialects) and vocal training at the Liz Caplan Vocal Studio. Her versatile range spans classical theater to contemporary on-camera realism, supplemented by on-set television experience including HBO's The Gilded Age (Season 3) and a recurring guest-star role on The FNL Network Talkshow. An elite indie auteur, she wrote, directed, and starred in the internationally acclaimed drama-thriller micro-short The Mission is Complete, Angelique, capturing Best Actress and Best Director honors.

She is best known for producing the celebrity series Lillee Jean TALKS! Live, featuring Hollywood’s Don Most and Emmy-nominee John Callas, and directing the gritty investigative documentary feature Project Bullyish, which won Best Documentary Feature at KIIFF (Beverly Hills), achieving viral resonance in France. Her craft is bolstered by studies with CalArts Extended Studies (Filmmaking), the University of Cambridge (Professional and Continuing Education) (Shakespeare), The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and a Microsoft Security certificate, with early Environmental CTE studies underpinning her STEM-driven production approach.

Of Russian, French, and Ashkenazi Jewish heritage, she represents a formidable, multi-generational industry legacy. She was raised on major studio sets by her mother, veteran Hollywood prop buyer and runner, Laura Rene Marks-Trueman (Public Enemies, Mad Men, Men in Black trilogy).
