Batman Begins Casting Call

2004_06_batman.jpg

The new Batman movie, Batman Begins, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, is going to be doing some shooting in Chicago. Tomorrow there is an open casting call for extras so it's your chance to be in the movie. Here's the dillio: Joan Philo is the extras casting director (she's also done High Fidelity, Chain Reaction and ER) and will be looking for "students and all ethnic groups" for one- and two-day exterior shots, mostly at night. They are also looking for people willing to work with their cars.

The casting call is tomorrow, the 24th, at Columbia College (1104 S Wabash), room 502, between 1:00 and 3:00 pm. People should bring a recent color photo of themselves (doesn’t have to be professional) and, if they’re interested in the car stuff, a picture of their car. Also, bring a pen. Contact number: 773-509-2929.

Everyone wants to be in the new Batman, right? Oh, and it’s paid work, too.

Thanks to Kris, of GB fame, for the tip. Hopefully their site will be up soon!
