Job Position(s): Casting for “Dexter Resurrection” in NYC – People W/ Disabilities

Waldron Casting is seeking men and women with physical disabilities for paid background roles on Dexter: Resurrection, filming in New York City. Background performers work under the direction of the second assistant director on set, populating scenes to build the visual world of episodic television production. This opportunity suits individuals who want on-screen representation in a major Showtime series and are available for background work in the NYC area.

About the Role

These are paid extras roles on Dexter: Resurrection, the continuation of the long-running Showtime franchise starring Michael C. Hall, Peter Dinklage, and Uma Thurman. Background performers on episodic television are placed by the casting department to reflect the authentic texture of a specific city or environment, and in this case the production is specifically building a true representation of New York City on screen. A typical day involves reporting to set per the call sheet, working within designated background holding areas, and taking direction from the AD team during scene coverage.

Key Responsibilities

• Report to the designated NYC filming location on scheduled shoot days and follow all set protocol as directed by the second assistant director.
• Perform background action within scenes as placed by the extras coordinator or on-set PA.
• Represent the physical diversity of New York City as part of the production’s commitment to inclusive casting across the episodic television series.
• Maintain continuity of appearance and position across multiple takes and setups.
• Follow all production guidelines regarding wardrobe, personal items, and conduct in and around the filming area.

What You Bring

• You are a man or woman, 18 years of age or older, with a physical disability.
• You are based in the New York City area, as travel expenses are not covered by the production.
• All ethnicities are encouraged to submit for these background roles.
• Prior on-set experience as a background performer is a plus but not required.

Why This Role

Dexter: Resurrection is a high-profile episodic television production with a cast that draws significant audience and press attention ahead of its premiere. Waldron Casting is running an inclusive background casting initiative that is designed to authentically reflect New York City on screen, which means this is a production that is actively seeking representation rather than treating it as an afterthought. This is a paid background opportunity on a major network series.
