ABC’s yearly talent search for new acting talent is currently underway.
The 2018 ABC Discovers is now accepting submissions in Los Angeles and in New York City.
The Digital Talent Competition is part of ABC’s commitment to giving aspiring actors opportunities. ABC Discovers is a series of initiatives that include the New York and Los Angeles Talent Showcases, Actor Audition Workshop Week, Latino/Hispanic Outreach, Asian/Pacific Islander Outreach and Global Talent Outreach.
Most notably, the 2014 contest winner, Cornelius Smith, Jr., is a series regular on the hit drama Scandal, and 2015 contest winner Sam Adegoke has had recurring roles on Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders and Switched at Birth and the stars in the upcoming CW Dynasty reboot.
“This competition is about access and opportunity for up and coming actors,” said Davis. “We are incredibly proud of the talent that has surfaced in the first few years of the competition and can’t wait to see who comes forward this year in both the U.S. and now also the U.K.”
