Really enjoyed casting on COME WITH ME, a SAG-AFTRA feature that filmed on the Mississippi Gulf Coast!
Sharing a nice update and article for all those involved!

The firm acquired the film, about a working-class man whose life unravels after traumatic experiences that lead him to fall under the influence of "a rhetoric-spewing radio host," for North America.

CASTING CALL: MISSISSIPPI & SURROUNDNG STATES
EMAILED SUBMISSIONS ARE OPEN FOR THE KID/TEEN ROLE OF BANKS

Looking for “real kids” in the community with natural acting abilities and the confidence to try out for a major role in a TV Pilot for the upcoming series, AMERICAN MUSCLE, a SAG-AFTRA project due to shoot in Jackson, Mississippi.
Dates: October 1-10, 2026
Rate: $449/day + 10% agency fee. Needed several days on set.

Storyline: American Muscle is a high-octane family drama set on the forgotten dirt tracks that started NASCAR. After his father’s passing, HAYES TURNER shoulders his family’s struggling garage while fighting to create his own legacy – one stock car race at a time. Like the Turner family, this sport and culture is vying for existence. The pilot is partnered with the Jackson Motor Speedway to film during live races. And the series will film during the World of Outlaws “Hell Tour” at tracks all over the country next spring/summer.

[BANKS] Male, can play 12 to 15, White. Would love 18 to play younger, but 100% open to a minor. Brash, brazen, smartass, and everything else a boy raised on the dirt tracks of Texas ought to be. After recently losing his father, Banks isn’t sure how to cope with the loss. If he let himself slow down for a moment, he might admit he’s a little adrift–but like his older brother, that isn’t something he’s willing to do. Banks is Hayes in miniature: tough, loyal, protective, ambitious, and not afraid to make enemies if that’s what it takes. He has a soft spot for his mother, but he’s at an age now where he’s not as comfortable showing it… SERIES REGULAR

This is our call for real kids (with no representation) in Mississippi and/or surrounding areas who would like to give it a shot. No experience needed. Please send at least 2 clear, up-to-date photos (1 close-up + 1 full body) to [email protected]
Subject Link YOUR CHILD’S NAME for BANKS for AMERICAN MUSCLE

Please be sure to include the following written information in the body of your message, in addition to your attached photos.

Child’s Name:
Their age:
City/State in which you currently live:
Phone number:
Height:
Parent/s Name/s:

If you do have an acting resume, we’ll happily take it but not required.

Deadline to suggest is Tuesday, August 25th at 5pm CT… the sooner the better as auditions will start going out asap!

Only those selected for the audition process will receive a reply with the details for a self-taped audition.

If you are a professionally represented actor, please DO NOT EMAIL US, and ask your agent to suggest you on Breakdown Services.

Thanks so much for the support!

CASTING CALL: MISSISSIPPI & SURROUNDING AREAS 🏁

Boogity, boogity, boogity, let's go racing, actors! 🏁

Morgan Casting is excited to be on board AMERICAN MUSCLE a SAG-AFTRA Pilot due to shoot in Jackson, Mississippi
Dates: October 1-10, 2026
Rate: $449/day + 10% agency fee

Storyline: American Muscle is a high-octane family drama set on the forgotten dirt tracks that started NASCAR. After his father’s passing, HAYES TURNER shoulders his family’s struggling garage while fighting to create his own legacy – one stock car race at a time. Like the Turner family, this sport and culture is vying for existence. The pilot is partnered with the Jackson Motor Speedway to film during live races. And the series will film during the World of Outlaws “Hell Tour” at tracks all over the country next spring/summer.

At this time, we are accepting submissions from the pro agents via Breakdown Services and from those on Actors Access. Morgan Casting will only book a represented actor through their agent.

We are not accepting emailed submissions at this time but will open up that option later this weekend for some roles, as we prep in stages; so keep an eye on Morgan Casting’s socials for updates on our “real community search.” (Hint hint… we’d love some real Mississippi kids/teens for the role of BANKS)

There are 4 characters on our list, see details below.

[SHEP] Male, early to late 20s, Hispanic/Open ethnicity. Shep makes everything around him work–the cars, the crew, Hayes’s schemes, Banks’ joy. He’s the crew’s emotional safety valve, and the others’ way in when Hayes is too guarded to let anyone see. But he does this often at the cost of his own self-interest. Despite being the shop’s hardest worker and Hayes’s best friend, he’s gone months without being on payroll due to the garage’s financial struggles. He carries a long-held crush on Johnny, the Turner sister, but won’t admit it because admitting it would mean rocking the boat with Hayes. Shep’s place in the Turner crew isn’t shaky, but his baggage makes him believe it might be... SERIES REGULAR

[BANKS] Male, can play 12 to 15, White. Would love 18 to play younger, but 100% open to a minor. Brash, brazen, smartass, and everything else a boy raised on the dirt tracks of Texas ought to be. After recently losing his father, Banks isn’t sure how to cope with the loss. If he let himself slow down for a moment, he might admit he’s a little adrift–but like his older brother, that isn’t something he’s willing to do. Banks is Hayes in miniature: tough, loyal, protective, ambitious, and not afraid to make enemies if that’s what it takes. He has a soft spot for his mother, but he’s at an age now where he’s not as comfortable showing it… SERIES REGULAR

[MANDY] Female, mid to late 30s, open ethnicity. Having inherited the Grayson County Speedway from her parents, and their parents before her, Mandy works hard to keep the track up and running. Willing to go toe-to-toe with the boys, but also not afraid to dress up on Sunday. She’s long carried a torch for Hayes, though that attention goes unrequited. While she isn’t afraid of a little confrontation on the track, she’s more on the coy/meek side everywhere else–especially when it comes to Hayes... SUPPORTING

[LENNY] Male, 20s to 50s, open ethnicity. Lenny is the driver the Turner gang crew for in the early heats. The guy doesn’t follow instructions, but it’s deeper than that. Lenny views the world as hierarchical, and Hayes–despite being more knowledgeable–falls beneath Lenny on that hierarchy, so Hayes better keep his mouth shut. He’s not incompetent, just undisciplined and loud-mouthed. The actor needs good physical comedic timing and has to be able to play the specific dignity of someone who genuinely believes he is better than he is. Role requires on-screen driving... RECURRING

For any casting platforms or other casting sites, we ask that you do not share this post.

If you are interested in being an EXTRA for this show, Morgan Casting will be handling the background casting as well. Kindly hang tight as your casting notices will be announced much closer to the show’s start date this fall.

Thanks so much for the support, weekend warriors!

Casting Update: THE LINE (Mississippi project)

Thanks for the great submissions and support so far!
We have gone through all the agency suggestions, Actors Access suggestions + emailed ones as well and (currently) have reached out to everyone who we feel is truly a great fit for a speaking role.

Of note, if you suggested for the role of SUSAN, she no longer has lines (as per the new script) so no auditions for self-tapes went out for her part. Thanks for your understanding as this is often the nature of the business.

This is a FINAL AND LAST CALL for anyone else who would like to try out for a speaking role for this project. The writing is great and the production team is top notch. Wonderful people!

If you are interested in being an EXTRA, hang tight... and no need to email us at this time. We will post extras casting calls closer to the film's start date (In October) once we know exactly what we need for each day of shooting.

Sincerely,
Morgan Casting

CASTING CALL: MISSISSIPPI & SURROUNDING AREAS
EMAILED SUBMISSIONS NOW BEING ACCEPTED

(Please do not share on other casting platforms/sites)

Morgan Casting is excited to be on board THE LINE, a non-union short film due to shoot in both Indianola & Canton, Mississippi.
Dates: October 18-21, 2026

Storyline: The Line is set in the Mississippi Delta and follows Nora Lyn, a dedicated nurse who runs a rural community clinic where women wait for access to a mobile mammography unit. The film explores preventive care, health equity, rural healthcare access, and the women who continue to show up for care despite the barriers in front of them.

If you are a represented actor, please allow your agent to suggest you as this breakdown has been released on Breakdown Services. For those with Actors Access accounts, please suggest there. Emailed suggestions are strictly for those with no agent and/or no Actors Access account….an opportunity for local actors and those in the “real community” who wish to try out for a speaking part for the film. We will give preference to pro-agency and Actors Access submissions over emailed submissions, meaning we look at those first (and all submissions are indeed considered as we prep in stages).

Pays: $200/day + 20% AF (agency fee, if represented) up to $750/day + 20% AF (See rates in character descriptions as they vary per role)

Production is seeking Local Hires for all roles. This means that one must work the same as a true local who lives in each city in which production is filming.
