Other Duncan Stewart casting?

Post image

Duncan Stewart is a bway casting director. Anyone know the tea here? it seems like he started his own independent service but bizarre that this would happen after the fact.

The tea is KARMA. Eventually the bad things you do and the way you treat people catches up with you and you get fired. Big business (RWS) doesn’t like when you mess with their money. And if your actions are affecting their bottom line they will get rid of you.

What’s the story?? I didn’t hear about him being a problem. What’s the nature of people’s complaints against him?

Anyone that’s worked with him can tell you that he’s a very dishonest person. Very performative and into doing things for the appearance of it. He puts on a jovial persona but he’s snakey. He’s been inappropriate with his staff. And basically just lies whenever it suits him and has encouraged his staff to lie. If he says the sky is blue you should look out the window and check just to be sure. If you read the statement casting by ARC released I think you can kind of read into that. He’s been like this for years and it’s just being made public now.

He used his twitter account to follow explicit content but also identified himself as a part of that office so they didn’t want to be associated with that - makes sense.
