Season 3 of Casting Confidential is in full swing, and this week, Rose Rosen is joined by co-host and D.C.-based casting director Kimberly Skyrme for a dynamic
conversation with actor Chandler Riggs. Best known for his breakout role on The Walking Dead, Chandler reflects on his early auditions, growing up in the industry,
and the challenges of transitioning from child actor to adult professional.
From his first self-tapes to navigating nerves in high-stakes rooms, Chandler shares the real behind-the-scenes of working with casting directors—and what
he’s learned about authenticity, confidence, and craft. Plus, we close with a standout live read featuring Julia Ford Collier and real-time feedback from our panel.
