Casting the Roles
“A role changes a life. Nobody knows who gives it.”
Behind every name in the credits there is a chain the public never sees: casting directors, agencies worth billions, managers, lawyers, publicists, and the studio executives who sign the check.
This book takes the machine apart, piece by piece. Second choices that became iconic. Refusals that cost a career. Clans, rivalries, blacklists, comebacks. And the turn of an era, when television became the refuge of actors cinema no longer wanted.
From Bruce Willis to Johnny Depp, from Jerry Bruckheimer to Robert Downey Jr., thirty-three chapters and seventy-three actor profiles.
