Gilbert and Covell was established in 2016 by Casting Directors Ollie Gilbert & Katy Covell . We cast commercials, TV projects and films and enjoy working with promising new film-makers and long-established creatives alike.

What makes Gilbert and Covell truly unique as Casting Directors is our ability to pair 10+ years of combined experience on studio films, independent features and television series with an uncompromising dedication to always explore beyond the established talent pool. Delivering authenticity and integrity in casting is at the heart of our approach. As specialists in street casting, we have built established relationships with schools, community groups and charities throughout the UK and always ensure that no stone is left unturned in finding the perfect person for the role. 

We began our careers working on major studio films including GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, DOCTOR STRANGE (Marvel Studios), KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE & KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE (Twentieth Century Fox), THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E, KING ARTHUR: LEGEND OF THE SWORD (Warner Bros), THE COMMUTER (Studio Canal) and 55 STEPS (Sony Pictures)
