Well it sounds like you just answered your question. You should associate your other models to your user but the limit their access to it with the permissions that are associated to the roles that they have. Take a look at something like role_requirement. A user can have more than one role. IE; One user could be an actor, director, and an extra while another director isn't an actor but is an extra... I hope this makes some sense... It's early for me.
