Rob Riggle Slams 'Terrible' LA Audition Process

Rob Riggle, currently promoting his upcoming holiday horror-comedy film, 'Christmas at the Kringles,' has voiced significant concerns about the Los Angeles film industry. He stated that a substantial amount of work has relocated from the city, making on-site employment an exception rather than the norm.

Riggle further criticized the current audition methods, lamenting the shift to self-taped submissions in suboptimal conditions. He described this as a 'terrible way to do business,' a paradigm that emerged post-COVID.

The actor, who plays 'Drunk Santa' in the film, also revealed his aspiration to move back to his native Kansas City. While acknowledging personal matters in California need resolution, he hopes to return to his roots and reconnect with family and friends.

'Christmas at the Kringles' is scheduled for theatrical release on October 30, blending comedy, horror, and holiday themes. Riggle also reflected on past Christmases spent in locations like Afghanistan in 2001 and the valuable lessons of discipline and perseverance learned during his time as a Marine.
