On this episode I chat with Casting Director Gary Zuckerbrod. Gary has cast movies like Pulp Fiction, Frequency and The Kissing Booth as well as shows such as The Last Ship and Rizzoli & Isles.
We talk about:
- The parallels Gary sees between Casting and his work as a life coach.
- Why he can't build the "perfect" actor and what he looks for.
- The story behind how Ving Rhames came to be cast on "Monday Mornings"
- How sometimes it's just somebodies time and everything clicks into place.
- Why it's so easy to see when an actor is in their head.
- The importance of always practising your craft.
- How we're most likely looking at no more in person auditions.
- What it was like working with Quentin Tarantino on Pulp Fiction.
