Jeanette Diloné is an American screenwriter, director and actor. She has written, produced, and directed three short films, most recently “Hoar” (2022), which premiered at LALIFF 2022[2] and was selected for NewFilmmakers LA in 2023.[3] Her television appearances include recurring roles on Homeland (Showtime) and The Deuce (HBO). Originally trained as a theater actor, Diloné continues work on stage and was most recently cast as Camila in Miami New Theater's production of The Bridge of San Luis Rey by David Greenspan.[4][5]
Early life and education[edit]
Diloné was born in Washington Heights, New York City, to Dominican immigrant parents. Growing up, her artistic focus was on classical ballet, but she fell in love with acting during her college years at Columbia, from which she graduated with degrees in theater and psychology.[1]
Career[edit]
Diloné appeared in multiple small TV and online productions before debuting in Homeland (Showtime) in 2012.[6] After several more network television appearances, she made her feature film debut in James White (2015),[7] then acted alongside Ana de Armas in Exposed (2016).[8] In 2017 she appeared in the feature film The Outcasts.[9]
In 2017, Diloné wrote, produced, and directed her first short film, Return, in which she also played the lead role as a comic book artist welcoming home her veteran partner from a tour of duty in Afghanistan.[10] Return was selected for the Official Latino Film Festival, among several others, and was eventually acquired by Shorts TV.
After several television appearances, including a guest starring role on Elementary and a recurring role on The Deuce, Diloné created her second short, Rizo, in which an Afro-Latina actress struggles with her identity while navigating Hollywood life.[11] The film was selected as one of three winners of HBO's Latinx Short Film competition,[12] and was made available on HBO and Max. Rizo was shown at LALIFF 2020 among several other festivals.
In 2021 Diloné was selected as a LALIFF Inclusion Fellow[13] and was awarded a $20,000 grant to produce a short. In 2022, she used this grant to write, produce, and direct her third film, Hoar, a dramedy about a phone sex operator accepted to Oxford University who has to confront her hoarder mother about her decision to move across the globe. After it premiered at LALIFF 2022, Hoar’s festival run has included showings at Cucalorus, Urbanworld, Cinequest, and Newfilmmakers LA.
In 2023, Diloné was selected by the National Hispanic Media Coalition for its Series Script Writers Program.[14]
