Central Casting is an American casting company that specializes in the casting of extras, body doubles, and stand-ins. It was founded in Los Angeles in 1925, with additional offices opening in New York City, New Orleans, and Atlanta in the 21st century.

In popular usage, a person may be said to be "straight out of central casting" if their demeanor is felt to be stereotypical in nature, typically for their vocation or other attributes.
