Hey there. Best of luck with the return. I don't think there is anything like PCR any more (in the sense of a paper casting document). There is a web service called Production Intelligence which provides similar information, but not sure a) how much this costs and b) whether it would be useful to you as an actor. http://www.theknowledgeonline.com/production-intelligence

Best places for casting notices are Shooting People (low/no pay), Mandy.com (usually low paid/mid), TalentCast (low/mid) Casting Call Pro (low/occasionally good pay), The Spotlight ("proper" jobs - but sometimes limited unless you have an agent)

Depending how long you've been out of the game, your best bet is to get in some short films and get a reel together, then approach some agents and go from there (obviously that might take some time...!)

(I see you have a reel - I'd recommend cutting that down to the best 2/3 minutes and getting it in a higher resolution if you can and pitch that around. Getting a CV and reel on Spotlight is my recommendation!)
