While watching a movie, series or Broadway show, it’s fun to see that your favorite celebrity is featured in the main role or any role in general. It draws in more viewers and can make it more exciting. The publicity gained from casting more celebrities can positively impact many people such as the other cast members and producers. When producing movies, we should stick to what we know works, which is casting celebrities into more productions.
The Broadway show “& Juliet” has Charli D’Amelio in the ensemble which encourages people to watch the production because they know a popular person in a part of the cast. Celebrities have a large following and can influence many people. Having even one role played by a recognizable face, can help movie producers a lot because the celebrities will attract more audiences which can bring in more money and make lots more people happy. More people will be happy to pay the price of the ticket knowing that it’ll be a chance to see someone they are familiar with on stage. With celebrities like Charli D’Amelio, it can help bring in different audiences such as younger viewers. When celebrities are in big productions they can help broadcast whatever they are acting in. They spread the word through TikTok, Instagram and more which can get thousands if not millions of people’s attention. This is another reason stunt casting creates success– celebrities can amp their projects up on their platforms and get people excited.
Many people are obsessed with certain celebrities and would watch anything they are in. For example, with Ariana Grande playing Glinda in “Wicked,” more people will attend because they want to see Grande play one of the lead roles. Her casting can also draw in different types of viewers who would not typically go beforehand due to uninterest. They are interested now because a celebrity they know is in it.
Celebrities who are singers, dancers or overall just famous actors typically have more talent and pre-learned experience because they are used to being in the spotlight. Having someone who can be confident in their role and has experience beforehand can help elevate the entire production because they have had access to resources that help them improve.
For example, I have watched many movies with Dwayne Johnson, a pretty popular celebrity. So, when a new movie called “Red One” came out, and I saw that he was in the cast list, I was even more tempted to watch it. This is definitely the case with many other people. They see someone they like and know of and want to watch the production coming out even more.
Castingelebrities is a reliable move. Well-known figures can brighten up anything you are watching, from a Netflix movie to a Broadway show. Celebrities can draw in more views and help newer producers get their movies out there. It is almost certain that with a celebrity in the cast, the production will skyrocket.
