Debbie Andrews, Casting Agent, Former Agent to 'A Listers'
On this episode of 'A Cuppa with The Con Versationalist', I was joined all the way from Galveston, Texas by Debbie Andrews. Debbie has been involved in the entertainment industry for decades and has previously represented Hollywood 'A Listers' such as Matthew McConaughey, Charlize Theron, Hillary and Hayley Duff, Farah Fawcett and Angelina Jolie just to mention a few! We chatted about how she got into casting and the key ingredient directors and casting personnel are looking for to fill a role. Debbie also shared why there are soooo many shows / series on the various mediums, how Covid has affected the industry and much more. Debbie was honest and open, such a delight to talk to.
Not only has Debbie been involved in the casting of a multitude of popular TV shows, she also has Hollywood blockbusters including Captain Marvel and Jumangi - Welcome to The Jungle on her impressive and very extensive CV.
If her entertainment credits weren't enough, Debbie is an adoptive mother to 30 yo identical twin girls, has fostered 7 children, wrote and championed The Transracial Adoption Bill and has been a horse 'mum' to over 2 dozen rescued and rehabilitated horses. WOW!
