Here’s a bit more info on the opportunity I shared with full subscribers yesterday…

If you’ve ever wanted to be on a real film set and even appear on the big screen in a major production, here’s your chance!

‘Motorheads’ starring Ryan Phillippe is coming to the Municipality of Chatsworth for four days in early June to shoot an ATV race scene.

The casting director would love submissions from performers 18-25 years of age to play the younger high school crowd and performers 25+ to play additional event spectators. Importantly, they’re looking for extras local to Owen Sound & area. This casting call will be open to fans in the GTA, as well, so don’t delay if you’re interested.
