Get cast in “This is Us”

NBC’s award winning TV show “This Is Us” is holding a talent search for a young actress to join season 2 of the show. Online video auditions are happening now and casting directors for This Is Us are searching for an African American actress ages 10 to 14 to fill the major, recurring new role of Lisa. Casting directors are accepting video auditions this week with a deadline of Friday the 21st so those interested need to rush it.

The show airs on NBC and the first episode premiered on September 20, 2016. The series is written by Dan Fogelman, Kay Oyegun, Donald Todd, and Aurin Squire. Dan Fogelman, Donald Todd, John Requa, Glenn Ficarra, Ken Olin, Charlie Gogolak and Jess Rosenthal executive produce the NBC show with 20th Century Fox Television producing.

Jack and his wife – who is very pregnant with triplets — have just moved into their new home in Pittsburgh. Successful and handsome television actor Kevin is growing increasingly bored with his bachelor lifestyle. Randall — who was abandoned at a fire station by his father as an infant — is a stylish New York-based businessman working to raise two daughters with his wife, Beth. These people are among a group, several of whom share a birthday, of seemingly random individuals whose lives intertwine in unexpected ways.

    I would love to play this role. I’m am a 13 year old girl. The only problem is that I’m not an African American. I’m Korean. I’m tan with black hair and brown eyes. So I do not know if I would qualify for this role but I would love to audition.

    I’m one day late and my dream is to act, but my mom thinks it’s just a phase. I’m 11 years old and five foot three, maybe five foot four. I have acting experience and I can memorize lines lickety-split!
