Casting for a Female
There is a Director in London who is looking for a specific kind of Female actor. She must be 5'10''(or so) tall and athletic. Dark hair, dark eyes and vulnerable yet tough. Capable of portraying violence on men and yet carrying the whole feature film as the lead character. Some neccessary nudity is involved but think Kiera Knightley rather than 'Baisse Moi' or '9 Songs'!
I cannot understand why he has had so much difficulty filling the role but he is very particular on the 'right' actress for this major part.
It's paid work and we're professional actors!!
Comments or suggestions please?
Fair enough Alan, as long as your casting director is doing their bit too!
Good luck with it.

Im tall dark and fearsome....ish! And coincidently I went to the same drama school as Emma,we were a tall bunch!
Just to stick up for Alan here, not that he needs it but,
Some directors have a simple plan, if they have there other actors inplace then a certain height if required is a necessity,. Ok there are ways around it, but if his/her budget cannot allow then the specifics must be met. They obviously need a tall dynamic woman for this part. Most of you realise this and accept it. Yes its not the conventional place to post a casting but then why not encourage pro work through ccp by any means necessary? So long as it's legit, and with Alan involved, I honestly feel it wil be.
Happy hunting
