Mandy Review 2026
Global network for film, TV and crew professionals
Pricing
£14.95/month. One talent profile, unlimited applications. Free profile allows limited applications
Free tier available
Overview
Mandy distinguishes itself with strong UK and European market coverage and an unusually broad scope—actors and models sit alongside crew, production staff, and behind-the-camera talent on the same platform. This breadth reflects the freelance production realities of European film and TV work, where professionals often juggle multiple roles and need access to diverse opportunities beyond pure acting or modelling gigs. At £14.95/month (roughly $19 USD), with a free tier for limited applications, it offers affordable access to international jobs that US-centric platforms miss. The job board remains active with casting calls, commercial work, and production roles, particularly valuable for UK and European markets. However, talent management features beyond the job board are basic—profile hosting and application tracking work fine, but there's minimal calendar coordination, no contract management, and no financial tools for agencies or professional talent managers.
Verdict
Mandy wins for UK and European freelance talent who need broad job access across film, TV, and commercial production. The international focus and crew/production job coverage give it a niche that US platforms don't serve, making it essential for European freelancers. At £14.95/month it's competitively priced for what you get—job access plus profile visibility. However, it's purely a job board with basic profile tools, not a talent management system. Best for freelance actors, models, and production professionals working in UK and European markets who need diverse opportunity access. If you're US-based, need agency management features, or want contract/finance tools, look to Casting Networks or Artist Growth instead.
