As part of the EP family, Central Casting provides diverse, reliable background talent, streamlined onboarding and payroll services, and ongoing support to both casting directors and on-set talent—no matter where your production is being filmed across the United States.
We shot three different time periods, and the Background Actor casting was immaculate. Everyone did a great job, and the specialty picture picks were spot on.
