Casting is everything. I put a huge amount of work into casting, and consistently across my career, I am most proud of my bold choices I made in casting.

Doug Liman

The most exciting part of the casting process was casting out of Israel, which was a really unique process, mainly done remotely from California, looking at casting tapes.

Tim Kring

Acting in itself is changing. This change is because of the advent of the casting director. Earlier, there would be stock characters, who would be seen in every film. Now, casting directors are bringing fresh faces.

Shabana Azmi

For me, when you're casting known talent, you're not just casting their performances. You're casting the public's relationship with them, their public images to a degree.

Jen McGowan

If you work in casting, it's sort of not cool to want to act. A lot of people think that casting directors are frustrated actors, but it wasn't true with any of the casting people I knew.

Catherine Keener

Where having been an actor was extremely helpful to me was in casting. That's where I think a director who has acted can really shine, and casting is the most important thing you do.

Taylor Sheridan

There's racist casting, and there is normal casting. Normal casting, to me, is a process that strives for representation and, in many cases, strives to simply portray the world as it actually is instead of as falsely non-inclusive. And sadly, sometimes that involves removing the whitewash that exists on history.

Shonda Rhimes

Casting director was a part-time thing, which later became a full-time job because there was a lack of casting directors in our industry and people were looking for professionals to do it.

Abhishek Banerjee

I have a very simple philosophy when it comes to casting, and it really is casting the best person for the role.

Rob Marshall

Casting is an art, and if you're interested in people, like I am, casting is essential.

Sebastian Lelio

I like interesting casting, and casting people who you think might be slightly different in parts.

Peter Kay

I think one of the things when you're casting children is you're also casting their parents.

Morgan Freeman

I can't even begin to tell you how many casting couches I was attacked on. Not just by casting people, but by stars.

Jenny McCarthy

I started casting. I cast music videos, but I kept getting fired from jobs because I was iconoclastic in my ways of casting.

Lee Daniels

I randomly went to a casting session in my hometown in North Carolina, and the casting director introduced me to my manager. I really lucked into it!

Maddie Hasson

My casting in 'Halo' produced by Steven Spielberg, which I am doing, is just color-blind casting; Asians have been questioning why best roles should not come to them and I am so happy about this color-blind casting. I am going to be just what I am in that film.
