CASTING SEARCH FOR NETFLIX MOVIE WITH JENNIFER LOPEZ!

THE MOTHER

Posted: 5/5/21

Nancy Nayor Casting, based in Los Angeles, is excited to announce that we’re currently conducting an international search for the leading role of “ZOE” (an actress aged 11-15 in the NETFLIX feature film, THE MOTHER), Directed by NIKI CARO (MULAN, THE ZOOKEEPER’S WIFE, WHALE RIDER) and starring Jennifer Lopez.

The film will begin shooting September 2021, with the location to be announced soon.

LOGLINE: After ten years hidden in the Alaskan wilderness, a deadly female assassin, THE MOTHER, must come out of hiding to protect the young daughter she had to give up at birth.

LOOKING FOR:

[ZOE] (11-15 to play 13) Zoe is a 13-year-old girl, the cherished adopted child of a loving couple. Zoe’s life has been ordinary in the very best way. A stable home, school, gymnastics - she's a regular kid on the cusp of teenage hood, which means she can seem like a little kid one moment, and a young woman the next. She can be smart and instinctive, then childish and emotional. She’s a regular thirteen-year-old girl. This regular life ends when her identity is discovered, and she is violently kidnapped in an attempt to draw out her real mother. Separated from her adopted parents, Zoe is thrown into a relationship with her birth mother who is ill-equipped emotionally, but who has a primal need to love and protect her. And teach her how to survive... NOTE: ACTRESS MUST BE ABLE TO PORTRAY PARTIAL LATINX HERITAGE.

The flyer below has all the information, open to both newcomers and seasoned actresses. Casting is moving very quickly and hope to receive auditions as soon as possible! The casting directors are asking all young actresses (including those with prior acting experience or with no experience at all) who fit the description below to send a self-taped audition to us.
