TV Series Auditions For Conan - Learn An Accent Overnight

2 new auditions for ongoing TV series this week?

Well not really. One TV series contacted me directly and asked if I was available but unfortunately being on the opposite side of the world and working (for a really nice change) prevented me working on that TV series just now, maybe something will eventuate later.

The other TV series I made contact with quiet a while ago after an actor friend gave me a heads up about some castings they were holding last year.....

Dysentery And A BIG Audition

Conan Stevens To Appear In ?

During my break between filming episodes of HBO's upcoming "A Game of Thrones " I have been hard at 'work' searching the internet, looking for openings and new possibilities. I have found some... and some have found me....

Scorpion King 3 To Film In Thailand

Another Auditionless TVC For Conan

Just recieved a call last night along the lines of "Hi Conan, I am in a bit of a rush right now but are you free to do a TV commercial next week for $x?"

To which I replied... 

A Song Of Ice And Fire Green Lighted

The HBO TV series pilot that was auditioned for and filmed recently has passed approval amongst the heads of programming at HBO.

The series has the green light so you can expect a medieval slaughterfest in the best traditions of the book series anytime soon(ish).

So why is Conan excited about this....

Wake Up Call - Conan Style

Last night I was uncharacteristically up until late so this morning I slept in a little...

Until my phone rang and fully awoke me

"Hi Conan, it's xxxx, we have a main character part in a new movie we are making with yyyyy (whom I also know well), are you free for about 5 days shooting in the next few weeks?" 

Audition For New French Movie

This week I was contacted by a local Agent who is providing people for Auditions for a new French movie to be partly filmed in Thailand, partly filmed in Europe.

Having seen a few pages of the script (for character background and setting) I can see the character, a mercenary, is not a big part, but he does get some lines (Essential. No lines means you are a featured extra, getting lines means you are credited as an actor) and will be in a noticable part in the movie.

So will I take this lesser role than I am currently looking at in my auditions, would it be a step backward for me to take this lesser role? Yes it would.... will I go to the audition and meet the director?

Yes... and here is why... 

New TV Series Audition *Updated

I am unable to write any details at this stage but my Acting Agent in Australia, has managed to secure an audition for the pilot of an upcoming American TV series, in a role that could be very suitable for me.

With a number of opportunities arising at present, it is only a matter of time before I sign up with one.

The best thing about all this for me is that the quality of the productions and the quality of the roles is better than any I have previously done. It looks like my plan to serve my movie apprenticeship in Asia was in fact a good choice and my plan did work. Great. My plan to be found via Search Engines and approached for auditions because of this, my actors website, is also working very well. Now I can launch into the US movie market at a 'reasonable' and financially interesting level.

So I grabbed a mates camera, grabbed my mate who has no acting or 'reading' experience and we filmed the audition...

Conan Scores A Role In The Japanese Movie

Today I met in Sukhumvit Soi 3 with Ray (Bangkok Adrenaline Director) and Ron (Bangkok Adrenaline Action Director) for a movie casting for a Japanese movie. Upon arrival we met Denji - whom I wrestle with in Bangkok Adrenaline at the beginning of the movie.

Right so all the regulars are here.... 

Streetfighter 2 Audition

Yesterday I recieved several calls in a lead up to the final call - for an audition in the new Streetfighter 2 movie.

First up Erik, a fellow Bangkok based stuntman called me up and told me there was a part going that required a very large stuntman, I would be recieving a call.

Several minutes later I got a call from Seng from Seng Stunts whom I worked with on Bodyguard 2. He tells me officially the same thing and that he was passing my number over to the Streetfighter 2 casting people....

Website Generates Acting Leads

My first post on this website from the 2nd July 2006 talks about how I am building this site to try to self promote and gain additional acting work in markets that I have not yet entered. ie Hollywood.

Well I can say now that the site is finally starting to pull acting leads, I am starting to receive movie opportunities via the contact form on this site.

Let me go into it further....

7.5 Foot Tall Actor Required For Ser Gregor Clegane "The Mountain That Rides" For HBO TV Series

A 7.5 Foot Tall Actor is needed to play Ser Gregor Clegane "The Mountain That Rides" in the TV adaption of the fantasy book series "A Song Of Ice And Fire" by George R. R. Martin.

HBO has purchased the rights to the series as the books are too long and too indepth to be made into a 3 hour movie. Rumour is that it is to be written and exec produced by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss

Gregor Clegane is a huge knight a result of experiments by Qyburn who was working on a master project to build an "undefeatable champion" . He ordered a massive suit of armor, too huge to be worn by any human, for this purpose. His extended experiments on Gregor Clegane seem to factor into the size of his final creation. Gregor Clegane is a demented, sadistic, calculating killer. (Incorrect, see what I get from summarising others websites - see correction in the article)

Now where are they going to find someone who can play a 7.5 foot tall knight?

(UPDATE: This is the article that sparked interest amongst the fans and ended up with me actually playing Ser Gregor Clegane in the HBO hit series "Game of Thrones", I wrote this on a very, very long shot. i could not have done it without the help of the fans).

Baa Ram Ewe Film Studio Meeting On Christmas Day

Just got a call - I have a meeting with the big film studio Baa Ram Ewe (Ong Bak, Tom Yung Goong) set for Christmas day.

Being a Buddhist country here we don't have to worry about the commercialised version of Christmas peddled in the West these days. In fact it is work as normal for the local population....
