Acting

Faye is a London-based Casting Director who studied at Goldsmiths, University of London. She began her career as an agent before transitioning into casting, where she has built a dynamic portfolio across both film and television. Her recent credits as Casting Director include The Witcher Season 5 (Netflix), The Playlist (Netflix) , and RIPD 2: Rise of the Damned (Universal). As an Associate, Faye has contributed to major productions such as Sonic the Hedgehog 3, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, Heads of State, YOU S4, Knuckles, and Shadow & Bone S2. 

In addition to her screen work, she is also the Casting Director for the BAFTA Rocliffe New Writing Initiative, championing emerging actors and supporting the next generation of screenwriting talent. While most of her work has involved swords, spells, and people staring dramatically into the middle distance, comedy has always been where her heart lives and she’s just come off the back of working on two huge action-comedy films, Sonic 3 and Heads of State for Amazon.
