I’m a 2015 graduate and while in law school I did a lot of entertainment work. After law school I clerked for a bit before going in-house to do corporate work (2 years) and I’ve been at a firm doing corporate work since 5/2018. I’m updating my resume for an entertainment role. Any suggestions? Can my resume spill over onto a second page now?

The bias against second page resumes is dumb, but real. Keep it one page.

Agreed on one page. Your clerkship doesn’t need a description. Everyone knows what a clerk does. A second, representative matters sheet can also help highlight relevant entertainment matters...

What are the chances of getting a lower offer because you're POC applying at a fairly large law firm? Not big law or anything but still.
