I'm Stuck With Selecting A Major For College

For context, I live in the Memphis, TN area.

Hey guys. First time posting on here. I've been dealing with some struggles lately when it comes to picking a college major. Right now, I plan on going to the University of Memphis, and I want to major in Communications with a concentration on Film/Video Producing. The only issue is I'm scared that when I graduate, I'm going to have a hard time finding a film career in the Memphis area. I was also thinking about majoring in Physics with a concentration on Astronomy, since I've always been infatuated with space, and I really want to learn more about it, but I'm honestly not sure if I'm smart enough for that kinda stuff, and because I honestly slacked off in high school and didn't do very well academically. I also don't even have a 21 on my ACT (I took it twice).

So I'm basically just wondering if I'm sitting here worrying about nothing, and if I should pursue film and just see what happens, or if I should find a different major that would better help me hit the ground running as soon as I graduate from college.
