We have a couple of actors who have played in a couple of big name productions (a couple of Harry Potter movies, a local show which has 7 million viewers etc...) In fact, our cup runneth over as we have a recognisable actor in a global series (ended in 2003) we can't use because there is no part for her and we also have another actor playing in a couple of series we're trying to use!
I have a system for approaching local, recognisable name talent which seems to have worked a little too well and we now have too many actors who are in good shows who are interested! Need to reign this back in a little but they seem to be signing up for really low rates (below SAG in the US) because they seem to like the screenplay. As a note: Thanks to MLesemann for your comments and support. Amazingly helpful!
The question now is how do we leverage these to get 'name' actors with a more significant following? So actors who currently have a little genuine, international box office draw.
How do you do it?
