Role: Defendant — Simone Reynolds (Female, 40, Any Race)
Veronica St. James claims matchmaker Simone Reynolds set her up with unsuitable, unattractive matches and secretly used candidates from a “Glow Up” program rather than the premium database Veronica paid for. Simone denies wrongdoing, stating she matched Veronica with educated, stable, genuine men, and that none came from any Glow Up program. Simone also explains her process: she shares written profiles only because she believes in emotional connection and “the element of surprise,” and she points to her clearly stated no-refund policy.

We are casting featured participants to portray individuals involved in a real small-claims case for the unscripted TV series Equal Justice with Judge Eboni K. Williams. This role requires strong improv ability, grounded real-person energy, and the ability to bring believable emotional nuance to reenactments.

Character Overview: Simone is a composed, idealistic matchmaker with over a decade of experience who believes everyone has beauty. She prioritizes emotional connection over physical appearance and stands firmly by her unconventional approach. She’s calm, professional, and principled—yet she’s also protective of her reputation and business model. Simone’s tone is empathetic but unwavering: she refuses to validate “looks-first” outrage and instead reframes success as compatibility, character, and openness.
Requirements:

  • Strong improv ability with calm, grounded authority

  • Comfortable portraying professional composure under criticism

  • Able to argue values-based logic (connection over appearance) convincingly

  • Strong reactive listening; can answer sharp questions without getting rattled

  • Natural delivery with subtle emotion (empathy + firmness), not preachy
    Compensation:

  • $20 per hour

Ethan Caldwell is suing his ex-wife, Maya Caldwell, for emotional distress, destruction of property, and financial loss, claiming she intentionally discarded their stored reproductive material after he paid for sperm preservation out of pocket.

How do I find a legit casting call?

To find legitimate casting calls, start by using reputable platforms like Project Casting, which vets postings to ensure authenticity. Always research the casting company or director associated with the call. Legitimate opportunities typically don’t require payment to audition, and any contact should come from professional email addresses rather than personal accounts.

Can you audition without an agent?

Yes, you can audition without an agent. Many open casting calls and online platforms allow individual actors to submit directly for roles. While having an agent can provide access to more exclusive opportunities and handle negotiations, many new actors start their careers by attending open calls or self-submitting for roles online.

What is the difference between a casting call and an audition?

A casting call is a notice put out by producers or casting directors seeking potential actors for roles, inviting them to apply or present themselves. An audition is the process where actors perform a specific piece, like a monologue or a script, in front of the casting team after responding to a casting call. Essentially, the casting call is the request, and the audition is the response.

What is the best free casting call website?

Generally, you should not pay to attend casting calls. Legitimate casting calls and auditions do not require payment from actors. If a casting call asks for money to audition or to secure a role, it is likely a scam. The standard practice is that any fees associated with the casting process are covered by the production.
