Is there a way to legitimately ADD screen credits for individuals who were never credited due to limitations on who GOT credit during older time periods. For example, I have call sheets and crew lists and shooting schedules from the shows and movies I worked on in the 1970s and 1980s. I was the DGA Trainee on many Universal TV shows and several films, and also at MGM. Also what about photos. I probably should not have taken them, but I did. Mostly in public places where we were filming, but also on the back lot (Laramie Street. For example on Maverick and Young Maverick. Also Wonder Woman that I shot of Linda Carter and -- darn - what was her name - you know. Wonder Woman's little sister - drusilla was her character name - and she went on to become big time in Cannery Row and other pictures. Except we called her wonder klutz. Darn if I can think of her name.
That's what I get for being 70 years old.
Anyway, I am just wondering..

Hi Skip,

If the actor, actress or crew member has an on screen credit, there uncredited role can be added to IMDb since you have the call sheets as proof. Someone who is more knowledgeable about the mechanics of doing this should be able to help you.

Hi Skip,

Dan is correct. You can add these credits to the site, but must ensure that you add the uncredited attribute. If our data editors are unable to verify their involvement in the titles then you may need to provide further evidence, such as the call sheets.

Please see the guide listed on our help site for instructions on how to submit these:
