At Thea Meulenberg Casting, we specialise in casting for commercials and commercial video productions. We believe the strongest casts are built on authenticity, personality and the ability to connect with an audience.

We specialise in diverse and multicultural casting, helping brands and production companies create authentic casts that reflect today's audiences. Our talent pool includes professional actors, commercial models and real people with a natural presence on camera.

Great commercial casting is about more than finding the right look. Especially in comedy, success depends on timing, authenticity and performance. We look for actors with natural humour, expressive facial reactions, strong body language and the ability to create memorable performances.

Founded in 1980 by Thea Meulenberg, our agency was one of the first professional casting agencies in the Netherlands. From the beginning, we have focused on quality, personal attention and finding the right people for every production.

Today, the agency is led by her son, Laurens Meulenberg, and daughter-in-law, Sevina Meulenberg, who continue the family tradition with the same passion, expertise and commitment to excellent casting.

Nearly five decades later, Thea Meulenberg Casting remains a trusted casting partner for production companies, advertising agencies, photographers and brands in the Netherlands and abroad.
