Alone Show News & Information

Casting for season EIGHT is open!

I get this question constantly, “How do I get on Alone?” First let me make clear that I am not a part of the casting process and have no inside track that could help you in any way. There are also a great many false casting people out there who will mimic the actual casting process and ask you to pay money to continue further THEY ARE ALL SCAMS.

You can apply at alonecasting@itv.com You should send a photo, your general stats and any info that showcases your skill, knowledge and experience. You will never be asked to pay money to participate in the casting process.

I definitely recommend doing a little research to figure out the way to have a tip-top application to the show.
