Four casting directors - Cassandra Han (USA/Germany), Anders Nygaard (Denmark), Laura Muccino (Italy) and Sien Josephine Teijssen (Belgium) - spoke about this year’s ReActing as a Star selection (see the news), offering their reflections on the qualities they look for in emerging actors. Referencing Han’s "Mastering the Art of Self-Taping" workshop and underlining the value of presence on screen, they highlighted how the casting process is shifting from regional frameworks towards global visibility.
