The Pulitzer Prize-winning, best-selling novel All the Light We Cannot See told the story of a blind teenager, Marie-Laure, in occupied France during World War II and her experiences with a German soldier named Werner. An upcoming four-part limited series on Netflix will re-tell their story, with shooting scheduled to take place in Europe in 2022. A search is underway to cast the role of Marie-Laure and “Actresses who are blind or low vision are especially encouraged to apply.” Those interested in auditioning can email [email protected]. More information is available from the American Council of the Blind (ACB): Netflix Casting Call: All the Light We Cannot See.
