Passenger Door Stuck Closed

Passenger Door Stuck Closed
Hey guys,
Ran into a bit of an issue, parked my car at my place and locked it as normal with the remote and when I came back to it the next morning the damn passenger door won't open! I can definitely hear the mechanism engaging when I hit unlock on the remote but it just wont open, even from the inside of the car.
I'm guessing the door lock actuator is acting up and will need to be replaced, I'm confident enough to do it myself following the great DIY's on the forum, the only problem is how I would go about replacing it if the door is stuck closed . I assume it would be almost impossible to get the door trim off while it's closed. Any suggestions on how I'd be able to get it open?

It's your G's way of letting you know it's jealous and doesn't want you spending time with that girl anymore.
Have you tried opening the door from the inside?
Hold unlock on the remote to roll the windows down then reach in and open it.
*edit* nm I can't read.

Can you confirm this please? I can't unlock my door from the inside or with the remote.
