Casting Young Woman for Lead Role in Drama Series ‘PONIES’
A major open casting call is underway for an exciting new television series backed by Peacock and Universal Television. The production is searching for a Russian-speaking actress to take on a pivotal lead role in the upcoming 8-part spy thriller PONIES. This is a unique chance for emerging talent to step into a central character role in a high-stakes Cold War-era drama starring Emmy®-nominated actress Emilia Clarke.
Job Description
The production is looking for a young woman, aged 18 or older, to portray a 17-year-old character. The selected actress will star in a bold, emotionally charged espionage drama set in 1977 Moscow. The series explores themes of loss, identity, and political intrigue through the eyes of two women turned CIA operatives following personal tragedy.
Emilia Clarke stars as Bea, a sharp and composed daughter of Soviet immigrants, whose life is upended after her husband’s death. Alongside her is Twila, a tough, small-town firebrand. Together, they unravel a deep web of conspiracies and secrets. The role being cast will closely align with these themes and emotional arcs.
About the Series
