Who We Are

Acting Direction and Street Casting.
Casting in Spain

At Buda Roses, we’re passionate about casting. It’s not just about finding faces; it’s about finding the right soul for each role, and we take this very seriously—while having a lot of fun. Whether it’s advertising or film, national or international, we dive deep into each project to uncover the talent that will lift the story beyond expectations. We believe that casting can transform a project, taking it from good to unforgettable.

Our work is rooted in excellence, adaptability, and an obsessive attention to detail. We’re not satisfied until we’ve found exactly what the project needs, and sometimes that means breaking new ground, discovering fresh faces, and inventing new ways to reach the perfect cast. With a deep love for film and a laser-sharp focus on finding the right talent, we know that the right cast can revolutionize a production, sometimes saving it altogether.

At Buda Roses, we are also committed to diversity and inclusivity. We believe that talent knows no boundaries—whether it’s race, gender, age, or background—and we strive to ensure every casting opportunity reflects this. We’re dedicated to creating a space where all voices are heard, and the casting process is an open and empowering experience for everyone involved.

“A great cast can transform a good script into an extraordinary story.”

“The transformative power of casting.”
