February 2025 Feature Film Casting Notices Part 2
Latest SAG-AFTRA Feature Film Casting Notices
PART 2 this month, we have 20 feature film projects looking for talent!
Please note that casting moves quickly—some roles may have already been filled, while others may not even be listed on official breakdowns yet. This gives you the advantage of reaching out early. However, don’t get discouraged—casting often continues even after a film has begun shooting, especially for smaller parts.
If you’re unable to reach casting directly via the provided email or don’t receive a response due to high volume, ask your agent to submit you through casting websites and check breakdowns for potential roles. With the project name and casting details below, your representative can locate it more easily and determine the best approach. If the listing isn’t on casting sites yet, they have direct contacts with casting directors and know how to reach them.
If you’re represented, let them pitch you—this is something my representative always does, whether the breakdown is up or not.
We always strive to find direct contacts, but when that’s not possible, we look for mailing addresses and official social media accounts to ensure you have every opportunity to connect with casting. Engaging with them on social media is a great way to build a relationship over time. I do it all the time.
Pay Attention: Some casting directors are working on multiple projects, so be sure to research their current work and tailor your email accordingly.
When reaching out to casting, NEVER attach your headshot and reel. Instead, do this:
“Here’s a quick look at my recent work: [Insert link—never attachments]”
Keep your email short and to the point. If you’re unsure how to write it, check out Section 4: Craft Emails That Command Attention and Want to Master the Art of Cold Emails? Here’s the Ultimate Guide for Actors.
⚠️ A quick reminder: Please don’t spam casting directors with emails. If you can’t get in touch, let your representation handle it.
In the Notes section, you’ll find details on when each project is set to start shooting. Some of these films feature A-list actors, including Owen Wilson, Jennifer Lopez, and Alan Ritchson, among others.
There are three projects below set to film in Canada, which is great news for my Canadian followers. Whether you’re based in the U.S. or Canada, casting needs to know about you—especially for productions in Canada, where they may require local talent for tax credit purposes. This is a significant advantage for Canadian actors. As for my American followers, you can still submit for projects filming in Canada, as they will also need to hire American actors.
We include all the details we receive—whether it’s loglines, project notes, contact email or any other helpful info—to give you the best shot at getting Cast Forward!
