  • Summary

  • Whatever makes an actor right for a role, Margery Simkin knows it when she sees it. She’s the casting director behind some of the most iconic original films and Hollywood characters from the last fifty years, including TOP GUN, FIELD OF DREAMS and BEVERLY HILLS COP, plus the more recent hits ERIN BROKOVICH and AVATAR, and one of our favorite indies, BEAUTIFUL GIRLS. In our season finale episode, Margery shares some trade secrets from her forty+ year career, debunks a few casting myths, and sums up her job as a mix of discernment, tenacity and serendipity: “I love problem solving… and I guess I’m arrogant enough to think I get it right a lot of the time! It’s just fun.”
