Imagine for just a moment how different the film, Forrest Gump would have been if Robert De Niro was chosen to play the film’s leading role instead of Tom Hanks? De Niro, no doubt, would’ve nailed it in his own unique way but Forrest Gump would be a completely different movie. What if Samuel Jackson played Red in, The Shawshank Redemption instead of Morgan Freeman? Or Robert Redford was Han Solo?
Matching the right actors with the right roles takes great talent and can have such a huge impact on the overall vibe and success of a film. The Casting Director does the job of playing the intermediary between the Film Director/Producer and actors. For this reason, we took great time and care in choosing a Casting Director for our HardFork Film Series who has both a deep knowledge of, and solid track record in the industry.
We’re very excited to announce that we’ve signed on Casting Director, Kate Geller.
Kate Geller’s Recent credits include:
NY Casting for SINGULARITY (pilot)
MATING (Showtime pilot)
TULLY (NY Casting)
THE DARK TOWER (NY Casting)
Jean-Marc Vallee’s DEMOLITION
... plus multiple other indies and pilots.
Kate has already provided us with a fantastic list of talent to choose from. We’ll be finalizing the casting of our Teaser Trailer (that will debut at SteemFest 2) very soon and will be sharing much more about our progress in the coming weeks!
Thank you all for your tremendous continued show of support of our project!

You guys rock! Will there be any celebs left in Hollywood after finishing the series? I don't think so...:-) It's great to see that you're recruiting the very best for your project. I really can't wait to see that teaser trailer in Lisbon!
Great job 👍
Thanks so much @surfermarly! We can't wait to screen it out there for you, the other attendees and soon after, the rest of this amazing community!!
Thanks, @surfermarly! We are definitely psyched at the level of talent we have onboard so far! Can't wait for Lisbon! : )
Upvoted and also resteemed :)
@taylor.swift I followed you u can follow me as a friend
I'm really looking forward to how this project develops. It could be a game changer in the film industry. Following and Resteeming =)
The more I learn and live and learn to live and live to learn .. I learnt this...... we are programmed. All hollyweird stars I mean hollywood stars are, are pawns in the greater game/scheme.... It's all a lie. I believe nothing I see on TV they are all paid to lie and program us. If you don't believe me now, in time you will and you can take that to the bank.... Cheers ;)
Entertainment is always truthful. Relax. Open your eyes. Submit. It is so much less pleasing to rail against the inevitable.
Do not listen! The CFS's only purpose is to distract so they can steal your Liberty dollars while you play their nefarious games.
Thanks @ tabjones! That's what we're hoping.
It won't just change the film industry. It will change everything. Geller understands our nature. She is witness. A true node and comrade. Seeing your world as we see it from our time, this is on the level of a seismic sea change.
Congrats on having Kate Geller as Your Casting Director.
That was a very interesting question that was asked... What would movies be like IF someone other than the star chosen would be like... and it's true, these movies would have been Very, Very different, even though the script would be essentially the same.
Hope everything is going well... REALLY looking forward to Hard-Fork !!
Cheers !!
Thank you! It's an interesting question to ponder. The ones that got me thinking was The Shawshank Redemption and Dead Poet's Society. We appreciate your support!
YES... agree.
I believe the Hard Fork series could be the catalyst to WAKE people up to cryptos AND Freedom...
Cheers !!
If movies were to move on to be made on Virtual Reality instead, we could see the same movie with different leading actors. The set and the world, once done, will always be there and it could be licensed for millions of people. As technology progresses, I guess that's where we are heading. Visual fidelity will only keep increasing.
talented director ;)
@HardFork-Series, watching out for that....And also hoping to see a very good film whereby we have noting but the best of the best actors on set!
Thanks @tezzmax!
hey man,what's up with you?
Hey @tezzmax, just having a great day doing what I love, telling visual stories with crazy talented collaborators I love and respect, and having tons of fun in the process! How are you?
Am doing fine also, making my day and night here on steemit....It's been fun!.....Would love to see what @HardFork-Series has for us here.
Wow, this an awesome surprise to have her, and what about you as a director @dougkar, you will be a co-director with her? :P
Hey @aftabkhan10 I'll be directing and Kate is going to be the Casting director which means she directs who we cast in the series... and then I direct them on set! Thanks for the question.
Ohkay thats great, yep casting is really an important step, bringing good cast can get you a good response. As you saw it in the Transformer latest movie, rating approximately 5 something, why coz of bad cast, thats what I suggest after watching the movie.
Nice @hardfork-series
Okay...props on the casting for John Wick. I would have never cast Keanu Reeves as the protagonist in that film. Brilliant. And I am a fan of Ian McShane...so that is a no-brainer for me. Great choice!
She definitly has a lot of experience, love the Maze Runner! Can't wait for that teaser :D!!
De Niro would've never carried all those guys out of the jungle. Especially not Bubba. :-)
Hahaha, so true!
You're right!
You guys are awesome, I just want to be apart of this in some way, Are you in need of a proof reader, and apprentice and intern writer in training. OMG. This has already begun to be awesome. I ask humbly that you check out my post. If there is anything I can do please feel free to reach out. In the meantime you have my support.
Thank you so much for the offer and the support, @rensoul17! We'll definitely keep you in mind. Anyone who likes tea is OK in my book. : )
Amazing sign up - well done folks!
Wow, that is awesome news! Very big time stuff! ... but I do like some of those ideas for role switches too !!
Oh man, now THAT is hilarious!
ty man, peace (-: have a good weekend !
I'm looking forward to seeing more about this.
I have two "ideas" for production. One is a movie, comedy that is based on our crazy trip when we drove from Vancouver Canada to Tampa, FL. Two cars, two dogs and we were moving to Mexico... The true story is so crazy!
I have another idea for a popular TV series.
My question is really, would someone be willing to work with me to write the movie. (the outline is written)
And re: the TV episode, any thoughts on how to get my idea to the decision makers?
