Teen Women Rugby/AFL/Combat Sports Casting Call
Job Description
A major Australian feature film is casting a teen female athlete for a lead support role. Casting directors are seeking a dynamic teen woman aged 17–20 who plays Rugby (Union or League), AFL, or any form of combat sport such as wrestling, boxing, or MMA. Applicants must be based in Australia or New Zealand and will be considered regardless of professional acting experience or cultural background.
The story centers around three local boys and their pursuit of three private school girls in an isolated coastal town. The script includes mature themes such as sex, drugs, and violence and may not be suitable for all audiences.
You’ll be playing FERG, a tall, broad, and athletic future Olympic sprinter with a fierce competitive streak. FERG is known as the “total weapon”—naturally shy, loyal to her friends, and willing to stand her ground. This character requires natural, grounded performance, and applicants are encouraged to use their own accent. Kiwi applicants may be asked to perform both in their native accent and with an Australian accent.
