The 2025 Budget includes over $100M in new funding for the NZ screen sector. Here's how it benefits Auckland and NZ actors — and what Collaborate Management is doing to get our talent ready.
American actors Steven Logan and Simon Eskow, represented by Collaborate Management in New Zealand, are cast in M3GAN 2.0, the Blumhouse horror sequel filmed in Auckland.
With film production costs on the rise in New Zealand, strategic casting through a professional talent agency like Collaborate Management has never been more important.
New Zealand’s Activator Screen Business Programme is now open to applications from local producers aiming to grow sustainable screen businesses and expand into international markets through structured training and global industry connections.
