CASTING NIKE JORDAN - SHE RISE CAMPAIGN
We are casting an upcoming Nike Jordan ‘She Rise’ campaign, directed by Karim Huu Do and produced by Object & Animal. We are casting the lead role of Mia, a young basketball player with big dreams. This is a nationwide search.
Mia is an incredibly driven young woman, but one who is prone to doubting herself when she struggles to live up to her own high expectations. Her drive is to be the greatest basketball player, period. Beneath this is an intelligent person with a vivid imagination, a supportive family and a close, but small, group of friends.
Mia’s basketball journey will be told through a series of vignettes infused with timeless poetry and meaning. They will capture the poignant moments of Mia’s early life as she gains strength and confidence in the game and in herself.
For the role of Mia, we are considering talent with and without acting experience. Most importantly, we are looking for individuals with a unique presence and spark, and high level basketball skills.
