When finding actors for a show that’s equal parts comedy and drama, “you have to cast people who have a facility for both,” reveals Victoria Thomas. That was certainly the case with “The Morning Show,” which toes the line between laughs and pathos. The veteran casting director explained how she found the right performers to pull this off while appearing at Gold Derby’s Meet the Btl Experts panel, moderated virtually by managing editor Chris Beachum. Watch our exclusive video interview with Thomas above.

The Apple TV+ flagship series centers on a daytime TV anchor (Jennifer Aniston) whose life is thrown into chaos when her longtime cohost (Steve Carell) is ousted for sexual misconduct accusations and a new field reporter (Reese Witherspoon) joins the team. Both Aniston and Witherspoon serves as executive producers on the series, which added a unique dynamic to Thomas’ work.
