Acting castings span feature and short films, television and streaming series, theatre, student films, web series and the commercial work that pays the rent between them. Many listings are non-union and open to self-submission.
Below are the open acting castings right now, newest first. In the app each one is scored against your type, age range, location and the kinds of projects you said you want, and the breakdown says why.
What these castings usually ask for
- Headshot and résumé, and increasingly a reel or self-tape link
- Playable age range and union status
- Any accents, languages or special skills the role names
- Availability for the shoot dates listed
Booker drafts the submission note in your voice, matched to the role, and tracks every self-tape you send so you know what came back. Speaking roles with language requirements you don’t list are capped in your feed, never hidden.
