We have just finished on the remake of The Essex Boys. Bonded by Blood The story that I'm sure everyone remembers in the 90's because of Leah Betts and her overdose on ecstasy. It was always said when that film came out they wish they had concentrated on the gang and how they met themselves. Well this is that film written by Bernard O'mahoney who was part of the original gang and only one thats still alive
Another film was The Last Seven starring Tamer Hassan and Danny Dyer but although this east end gangster sort of films has been my route into films I've been working hard to go more main stream,
But anyhow we have just finished working with Sony BRAVIA. We we're booked to placed a 40 of our guys by one of the largest production companies that specialise in commercials in the UK. There previous adverts include the NIke and Budweiser brand to name a few. We are now there preferred agency for the future
A film doing well at the moment Sex, drugs and rock and roll starring Andy Serkis was one of our jobs last year. We placed 200 extras in it over 4 days.
My company which I've now in the middle of changing the name to The Lynch Casting Agency although we will always be known as The Lynch Mob within the industry is going from skywards We have been described by one well known writer who as worked in the business for many years. That what we have done and achieved is revolutunary
I'm off to Cyprus this month to recky the island and get in touch with the newspapers, uni's, and the Cyprus Tourist Organisation, (CTO) which have backed the film Mistress of the Rock and are also in the middle of some high profiles. One is called Billy its a government education film about knife crime and will be shown in every school. Of course I will keep doing the gangster films as it whats get us noticed.
I'm producing and have a 3 premieres over valentines weekend to coincide with the Film The Perfect Love Song. We have been making since last summer and have been franticly trying to get the edit together to coincide with its intended launch to coincide with Valentines Day. Its on at Bafta and also the Apollo Leicester Square.
I'm in development and Co-producer of Jack the Ripper and through all my contact we are at a advanced stage almost ready to go into preproduction. Full Cast list will be available soon and also in May we will be in Lowestoft filming a big budget movie for 5 weeks. News on that soon
I have been described by one well known writer who as worked in the business and for the BBC for many years. That what I've done is revolutionary. I've a brand new website comng soon and with the lowesfoft film in May It would be good if you could interview me.
I've managed to work with some great Actors, Directors and entertainers including Bob Hoskins, Danny Dyer, John Simm, Shirley Henderson, Micheal Winterbottom, Roland Manookian, Tamer Hassan, Terry Stone, Sebastian Street, Jamie Murry, Billy Murry, Noel Clarke, Colin Salmion, Geoff Bell, Jason Flemyng, Phil Davis, Noel Clarke, Alan Ford, Dexter Fletcher, Ricky Grover, Danny Midwinter, Terry Stone, Adam Deacon, Steven Fry, Frank Skinner, Donal Macintyre. Lorraine Stanley, Jamie Foreman, Thandie Newton, Eddie Izzard, Craig Fairbrass, Joe Egan, Andrew Tiernan, Rory Mcgrath, Geraldine James, Jo Brand, and father and daughter Ray and Jamie Winstone
We have also worked with international stars such as Stephen Berkoff, Salman Kahn, Sir Ian Mckellen, Miss Universe Sushmita Shen all of which he has watched intensely and learnt from their years and experience in the industry
I also start with international Director John Landis in a few weeks on Burke and Hare starring John Clease, Simon Pegg, Isla Fisher, Tom Wilkinson, Bill Bailey, Stephen Merchant and Andy Serkis its my first costume drama and posers another chalange for me.

Entrepreneur of positive thinking Johnny Lynch is known to many, including myself, as one of the most colourful and charismatic personalities in Norfolk.
Andreas Yiasimi. CEO of AMBER MODELS
Johnny Lynch is a charismatic actor who holds real "screen presence". Having worked with him in several films, Johnny has captured the camera in every project.
Whether a 'have-a-go' hero or a menacing gangster, his professionalism and dedication to his craft is inspiring.
His dedication to diving and his talent at photography has led him naturally to film craft and his managerial talents have given rise to the "Lynch Mob" casting agency becoming an almost instant and popular success. Vanessa King - SUPPORTING ARTIST
Johnny is a great guy and an inspiration to us all. The really good thing about him is that he is willing to share his success and take others along with him, a rare attribute in the cut throat world of acting. I hope all your hard work translates into bigger and better things.
David Frost BROADCASTER
Hi Johnny,
Thanks for all the work you have put in lately I have enjoyed all the work you have put me forward to do. I have now been an extra in five films and three of them were thanks to you and I look forward do doing more, so I am asking if I may please join 'THE LYNCH MOB'.
I would also like to ask if there are any runner positions available on weekends I would be very grateful if you would consider me. Thanks again.
Katherine Money - SUPPORTING ARTIST
The Lynch Mob are a great group of people who I now look on not only as colleagues but also friends. I have gained not only experience but also confidence.
Johnny you always seem calm and reassuring and whenever I have needed to speak to you either on the phone or in person you give me your full personal (although I am sure you have another 100 or so people also needing your attention) you never lose your patience. I look forward to working for the Lynch Mob in 2010 Simone Liebman Shamplina - SUPPORTING ARTIST
Its great to be a part of this super bunch of people and in my two years of extra-ing I have never come across a casting director like you who actually takes the time to get to know everyone and seems to know all your extras by first names - nothing seems to phase you and I just know your agency will be the best in London. So I am very much looking forward to 2010 when I am sure we will have plenty of projects going on with 'The Lynch Mob' Veronica Cutchey - SUPPORTING ARTIST
No up and coming actor i know has put in as much time and effort as this guy.
A credit to any project he works on, his determination to succeed cannot go unnoticed. Darran Williams - SUPPORTING ARTIST
Thanx Johnny, you've been amazing, your tireless, hard-working attitude and belief in all of us has been an inspiration and a motivating force. Love all you guys, you're like family...here's to next year being bigger and better x Chloe Atkinson De Burgh - PRODUCER & ACTOR
I have to say Johnny Lynch caught the acting bug after working for me on Scouting Book just a few months ago and I am amazed and impressed at his determination, ambition and eagerness to fill up his CV so quickly, a shining example of an ideal a supporting artiste if ever there was one and he knows I wish him all the luck in the world! Hazel Cripps, CASTING DIRECTOR
