For actors who belong to a union (in the USA and Canada, the Screen Actors Guild), you must talk to a SAG representative (lawyer). For low budget movies, there are special agreements. But understand that when you sign most of the SAG agreements (which appear very simple), you also agree to the SAG Basic Agreement which is not simple and is not available to the public. There are restrictions which are not obvious. Signer beware!!!
