Got a favorite movie scene of all time? Chances are Julian Burzynski has performed it on TikTok. The 27-year-old actor and content creator, who is based in West Hollywood, uses his TikTok page to recreate dramatic Twilight moments and the “Jingle Bell Rock” dance from Mean Girls. And since joining the app in 2019, Burzynski has gained over 1.8 million followers for his comedic videos. While we’ve all seen these vignettes before, Burzynski breathes new life into these iconic scenes with his outfits and impressive attention to detail—heightening the scene just enough to make you feel like you’re watching it for the first time.
Burzynski joined TikTok in 2019, but really started focusing on it as an acting medium during the pandemic. “I watched so many movies and TV shows in that first week of quarantine,” he says. “I [also] wanted to bring laughter and smiles, and a feeling of safety to anyone who was also feeling lost at this time. And with a few wigs, a ring light and my heart, that’s what I did.” Some of his most viral movie re-creations thus far include re-enacting the Elle Woods court scene from Legally Blonde, and re-citing the infamous cerulean monologue from The Devil Wears Prada. “That was very difficult, as Meryl Streep is an icon and Miranda Priestly is so precise in her facial expression as well as her body language,” Burzynski says.
While Burzynski’s page is already filled with an impressive archive of movie vignettes—don’t miss his Burlesque dance number, for instance—he has many more ideas in the pipeline for the future. In October, expect some more spooky re-creations around Halloween time. “I am going full out this year, and really getting into the spirit,” says Burzynski.
Below, Burzynski discusses his favorite movies, how long his videos take to make, and what ideas he will tackle next.
How did you start acting and getting so good at recreating scenes?
I was in my first musical in 2nd grade and I followed that dream ever since. I was in voice lessons, dance class, and acting class any chance I could get. I attended a performing arts high school in Chicago where I finally found acceptance for who I was and also got to learn about my craft. From there I graduated from Elon University in 2017 with a B.F.A. in. Musical Theatre, and have been pursuing this career path ever since! I am very detail-oriented, so I love to find little things that some people might not notice if they aren't watching closely. I like to bring myself to these characters, not only how they talk or walk, but also including the breath and the movement incorporated in these scenes. I have definitely gotten better at it through practice. The first TikTok I did with my mom, our lip sync is all over the place, haha! We actually re-recreated it not too long ago. We both have come a long way!
