Biography
Cassandre has recently wrapped on the recent Australian horror: Puzzle box by Jack Dignan. She doesn’t shy away from horror films, having previously worked with Jack on the After She Died feature. Her extensive set experience also includes working on Deadly Women and Home & Away, on the Marvel Productions of Shang Shi and the legend of the Ten Rings and Thor: Love and Thunder, on Three Thousand Years of Longing by George Miller, as well as indie Australian thriller, Surreal. Always professional, she loves to work closely with the director and her co-stars and making sure the story is being told as truthfully as possible. Her training in theatre began at the age of 11 years old, when she became part of a French theatre troop for 2 years. She moved to Australia in 2014 and got accepted at the Sydney Theatre School for the 1 Year Part Time Foundation Course in 2017. She has attended several Masterclasses taught by Australian industry professionals including Kevin Jackson, Jeremy Sims, Stevie Ray, Macaeley Gibson amongst others. Passionate about action films and theatrical adventures, Cassandre took on a 10 weeks Full time course with Kyle Rowling at the Action Acting Academy in early 2019 and a 2 weeks Full time course in 2021 where she graduated by becoming an advanced stage combatant. She has a strong suit for Meisner technique and a deep knowledge and passion for script analysis and character development. She had the audacity to apply and be cast in the French Survivor at only 21 years old and then be cast again for the All Stars season in 2017. She sadly got blindsided twice, but definitely put on a show for the greatest pleasure of the 15M people watching. In 2022, she has co-created SWFTT, a networking group for women identifying and non binary legends and once a month, a night of Q&A with special industry guests is organised around Sydney where awe inspiring conversations are engaged. Cassandre searches for deep human connections in both real life and on set, and the richness of her emotions allows her to easily bond and reach a beautiful vulnerability even when she portrays the most villainous characters.
