The Americans FX

The Americans FX

The Americans is another drama that is set to join American Horror Story and Justified on FX. The series takes a sometimes darkly comic look at two KGB spies posing as a normal suburban couple, Phillip and Elizabeth, whose mission remains a secret even to their children. Adding to the all star cast will be Emmy-winning actress Margo Martindale who has been cast to play Claudia, a KGB illegal living in the U.S. who delivers assignments to Philip and Elizabeth. Debuting on Wednesday, January 30, The Americans might just be one of the more anticipated new showings of 2013, particularly with the increasingly moody teasers. The casting directors are now looking for several male and female actors for several extra and supporting roles for The Americans.

The Americans’ takes place in 1982 and follows Elizabeth Jennings, one half of a KGB-arranged marriage planted within Washington D.C. Her relationship with her husband Philip becomes increasingly tested by the Cold War’s escalation, the associations they maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control, as well as their new FBI agent neighbor Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich). Along the way, Elizabeth and Philip find their fake relationship growing more passionate and genuine on a daily basis.

The Americans is created and executive produced by Falling Skies’ Joe Weisberg, a former CIA agent and accomplished author, the show was originally pitched in summer 2010 but it took writers two years to finish the script. The casting directors at FX are now looking for union and non union actors for several different roles for The Americans. If you are interested in auditioning please submit your application along with a photo and basic resume.
