Georgia Topley is a London-based casting director drawn to filmmakers with a distinct narrative voice and a particular interest in complex, character-driven work. She founded Georgia Topley Casting in 2023, an independent company which supports a broad slate of international projects. She works alongside casting director Jo Harris (Top Boy, Hedda), with whom she shares a commitment to ambitious, thoughtful storytelling.
Georgia & Jo's current slate includes Outer Dark, an adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel by Oscar-winning Son of Saul filmmaker László Nemes; Jamie Fraser’s debut feature Thoughtless, developed with BBC Film; and Romulus, directed by Lorcan Finnegan (Vivarium, The Surfer), alongside other projects in development.
Recent work includes The Face of Horror, from iconic feminist filmmaker Anna Biller (The Love Witch), produced by Good Chaos, and Atalanta Swire's short film, Leftover Women, commissioned by WePresent. Both of which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival 2026, with The Face of Horror subsequently playing at Fantastic Fest, Sitges and BFI London Film Festival. BAFTA-nominated Muriel d’Ansembourg’s debut feature, Truly Naked, premiered at Berlinale 2026 and won six Golden Calfs at the 2026 Netherlands Film Festival. Sisu: Road To Revenge was released by Sony Pictures in 2025 to critical acclaim.
Projects in post-production include; Oddly Flowers by Jordan Canning (Schitt’s Creek) starring BAFTA & Emmy-winning Martin Freeman, Emily Carey & Sam Spruell, Danny Lee’s debut feature Trash TV starring Noah Taylor & Millie Brady, Taisia Deeva’s absurd comedy Switch, and Yutong Bai’s The Way of the Runner starring Ewan Mitchell (House of the Dragon).
Georgia began her career at BAFTA-winning Des Hamilton Casting in 2016 working as part of the team on Jojo Rabbit, The King and Top Boy (BAFTA-winner for casting) and as co-casting director on the feature films; Ordinary Love (starring Lesley Manville and Liam Neeson), Vesper (starring Rosy McEwen and Eddie Marsan) and The Yellow Tie (starring John Malkovich, Sean Bean and Miranda Richardson).
Georgia is a member of the Casting Society (CSA), the European Film Academy and BAFTA Connect.
