Every year, the Casting Society of America (C.S.A. - those little initials that you see after most Casting Directors names on the big or small screen) salutes their own stars with an award called the Artios. The Artios nominations are out today, so I'm going to go over some of the highlights. Starting with yours truly, nominated for the Casting of "Samantha Who" on ABC. This is my 4th nomination for an Artios, having won once before for "Ellen" way back in 1998.
We've got tough competition in our category this year: Californication, Pushing Daisies, Chuck and Flight of the Conchords (these are all for the original pilot cast). Drama pilots nominated are: Damages, Mad Men, Gossip Girl, Saving Grace and In Treatment. Feature Dramas nominated are: Across the Universe, Michael Clayton, American Gangster, No Country For Old Men and Iron Man and the Comedy nominations are : 27 Dresses, Hairspray, Dan in Real LIfe, Juno and Enchanted.
The rest of the nominations should be posted later today at the CSA website: www.CastingSociety.com
Congratulations to all the nominees.
Actor of the week: Brooke Smith. Brooke is now on Grey's Anatomy, but she's always been one of my favorite actors. She starred in a great futuristic movie called: Series 7: The Contender which is a little bit like the "Death Race" movie coming out now. You know how some actors have a familiar face but you don't really know their name? This has kind of been Brooke's curse and perhaps strong point.
