FAQ – Finding Casting Calls in 2025

The last two years have truly transformed the entertainment industry.

2023 brought big changes to auditions and production.

2024 saw actors adapting to new ways of searching for work, auditioning, and even performing.

Now in 2025, the industry has fully embraced these changes — and continues to evolve with even more exciting opportunities.

With this shift, many people wonder: How do I find auditions today? Instead of endlessly Googling “acting auditions” or “casting calls near me,” here’s a simple guide to help you discover the best ways to find open casting calls for TV, film, theatre, and commercials in today’s landscape.
