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
