Registration FAQs

What is a Background Actor?

A Background Actor or extra is someone who performs in a show in a nonspeaking role, usually in the background. Central Casting registers Background Actors to appear in our legendary database. Every day, our in-house Casting Directors use that database to cast thousands of Background Actors to work on set, often for the following day.

Does it cost money to register?

Registration with Central Casting is free. There are no fees associated with employment.

I have already registered with Central Casting in person to be a Background Actor. Do I need to complete the online registration process?

No. If you have previously registered in person with Central Casting, you do not need to complete the online registration process.

Why do I still need to come into the office after completing the online registration process?

We need you to come in person to complete your registration by taking your profile photo and completing employee onboarding paperwork.

What if I’m unsure about an answer to a question?

Do your best to answer all the questions as you will not be able to proceed without making a selection. Changes can be made when you visit the office.

I’m about to move, what address should I use?

Do I have to answer all questions?

The registration process requires submission of all relevant information. Each page has information that is required.

In accordance with federal law, Central Casting is only able to hire those who are authorized to work in the United States.

Will you assign me to a Casting Director or an agent?

No, you are responsible for securing your own work. As you submit for different work opportunities and roles, you will likely interact with several of our Casting Directors.

I’ve completed the online registration process but haven’t come to the office yet. How do I make a reservation?

When you log in, you will be directed to make a reservation to complete your registration. If no reservations are available, try again later. New reservations are added regularly and others become available through cancellations.

When do reservations become available?

New sessions open up exactly 7 days from the time the event starts. If all dates show ”unavailable,” then sessions are either currently filled or not yet open. Check back often, as spots can open up any time due to cancellations.

Registration with Central Casting is a privilege, not a right. We respectfully reserve the right to refuse registration to anyone.

Central Casting is a participant in the E-Verify program. We will provide the Social Security Administration (SSA) and, if necessary, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with information from each new employee’s I-9 form to confirm employment authorization. Note: If the government cannot confirm that you are authorized to work, we are required to provide you with written instructions and an opportunity to contact the SSA and/or DHS before taking adverse action against you, including terminating your employment.
