CASTING: NOIR new series for STARZ

Casting for STARZ TV seriesSTARZ in association with Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert & Josh Donen at Ghosthouse Pictures are producing a new 10 episode action drama series to shoot in New Zealand. The show is of a genre similar to that of Le Femme Nikita and focuses on two female assassins, one European, one Asian, who are mortal enemies but join forces to battle a common foe. The action takes place in 1960's Paris, France and we are conducting a worldwide talent search for the Asian female lead.

The Asian character needs to be beautiful, fluent in English,  with a mild accent that can easily be understood by English speaking audiences. The project would require intensive physicial and stunt training for the physical demands of the show starting in October, and then shooting 10 episodes from early November through Spring 2012. A multiple year commitment to the series will be required.

Important:  The show is being produced by STARZ which is a premium cable channel in the United States  similar to HBO and Showtime, and this series will feature strong adult content including nudity, sexual situations and strong violence. The actress playing the Asian character must be completely comfortable with nudity and sexual situations being portrayed onscreen. Full nudity will not be required, but she must agree to exposed breasts, buttocks and simulated sex/love scenes. The written material is of the highest quality, and neither the violence, sexual situations or nudity will be gratuitous nor pornographic. (Bear in mind the nudity/sexual situations of shows like , , )
