Casting couch (letteralmente: "divano per il casting") è un eufemismo della lingua inglese usato per indicare l'atto con cui una persona che ha la possibilità di assegnare ruoli per formare un cast richiede prestazioni sessuali agli aspiranti attori o attrici. Sul piano legale, viene considerato un abuso di potere.
