    Oh *that* problem is easily solved--there are more than you think! Many of them have agents. And with a lot of casting starting online, keyword searches make that a lot easier.

    Sometimes they want someone with a specific skillset, like dancing or singing. There are disabled actors who sing! There are professional dance troupes with performers in wheelchairs.

    It's not as hard to do as some people make it out to be. Yeah, there's a matter of film stages needing to be set up in a way that's wheelchair accessible. But if that's what's stopping someone from hiring a disabled performer for a disabled role, they aren't trying very hard.
