A lot of things that I can't get into the room for, even just to be seen, is because they're just saying 'No. they're not casting non-white.' You're lumped into a category with people who are just not white.
Sandra Oh

Aaron is not at all what his image might indicate. He's fiercly loyal and a true and total gentleman. He's very shy but has very strong opinions. He's into everything, wardrobe, hair, script, casting.
Stephen Collins

Abstention means you stayed at home or went to the beach. By casting a blank vote, you're saying you have a political conscience but you don't agree with any of the existing parties.
Jose Saramago

Actors get pigeonholed very quickly, particularly movie actors. In the theater, one is more used to casting people against type and trusting that their talent and skill will get them through.
Sam Mendes

Are you casting asparagus on my cooking?
Curly Howard

As I've always said, preproduction is so important. When you cast the actors, you've done much of the work. Now, you may need to guide them a little, take it up or down, have them go faster or slower, but the casting process is crucial.
Robert Wise

At fifteen one is first beginning to realize that everything isn't money and power in this world, and is casting about for joys that do not turn to dross in one's hands.
Robert Benchley

Because of my Marxism, I was not into myths or miracles, whether it was the virgin birth, the physical resurrection or casting out demons from an epileptic.
Lionel Blue

But then all that died down and as far as casting was concerned it didn't really matter that I had been on Broadway.
Taye Diggs

But, Tarantino has seen all of my movies. He's seen my good stuff, he's seen my bad stuff, he's seen the ones I directed, he's read my autobiography. There's an awful lot of things he knows about me, all of which I think had something to do with his casting.
David Carradine

Casting directors now just see me as the hard-core sniper or prison guard.
Barry Pepper

Casting ethnic characters is a very hard thing to do, but it's important. It's also interesting.
Darren Aronofsky

Casting is 65 percent of directing.
John Frankenheimer

Casting is everything. If you get the right people they make you look good.
Todd Solondz

Casting is sort of like looking at paintings. You don't know what you'll like, but you recognize it when you see it.
Steven Bochco

Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputations... can never effect a reform.
Susan B. Anthony

Directors are not worried about casting beautiful women, but they are not sure that they want to cast great-looking men. My looks have prevented people from seeing my work.
Rob Lowe

Disney has the best casting. If he doesn't like an actor he just tears him up.
Alfred Hitchcock

Eventually, the state's funding covered only the stages leading to presenting a film project to potential funding bodies. It was enough to produce a script, indicate casting and put together a budget to present it all, but nothing beyond that.
Andrzej Wajda

Every casting director I've met is a woman.
Cameron Diaz
