Principal vs. Principle
When you're talking about your role in a project or the onset of filming your project, you mean "principal," as that's the only option that can *be* an adjective, and that's what you're listing on a resumé in the billing column: the type of role (principal, supporting, featured; recurring, guest-star, co-star); or in your blurb about starting the main part of your work
(from Bonnie Gillespie).

When I was doing production assistant work on an indie (and dealing with contracts, talent, etc.) that there was no such thing as a "featured extra" in the film industry and that actors too often use it as filler on their resumes when anyone on the other side of the camera knows better.
Agree? I took all extra work off my resume when I was told that.
