How to remake ManyToManyField for more convenient multiple selection?

Question

Django

Good afternoon! I'm new and learning Django, building a project in the process.
The question arose of how to make a more convenient multiple choice of the ManyToManyField type within the framework of the standard administrative panel, i.e. in the model, I need to select, for example, Actors, while there are 5-6 of them - it’s convenient when there will be, for example, 10,000 people - this is PPV + no search when choosing a value.

How can I pass this field so that it can be searched when entering the name of a multiple choice value?

Now it's like this:

And I would like to bring it to something like this format with the ability to search and select multiple values.

Look in the admin panel for the "autocomplete_fields" field.
Description in documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/contrib/...
example:

class QuestionAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    ordering = ['date_created']
    search_fields = ['question_text']

class ChoiceAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    autocomplete_fields = ['question']
