Actors, for your reel, you don't need to show us a clip of every type of character or genre you can play. You need to show us strong work and let us use our imaginations to envision where we can put someone with your vibe and chops.
Casting folk have REALLY good imaginations.

We can get a sense of your range and abilities from your resume as much as your reel. Show us good, strong work (even w/ minimal footage,) and we'll be more apt to try you for a range of characters bc you're a STRONG ACTOR, not because you have 18 different clips on your profile.
Say goodbye to the old stuff if it's no longer a good reflection of your abilities. Don't keep it solely because it shows you playing in a specific genre. If the acting isn't strong enough, there's a chance that clip can work against you.
Reels are too expensive to have one that works against you.
You grow and evolve as an artist. Your footage should as well.
