Shoot dates: October 31, November 1, 7, 8

CHARACTERS

MARIA: 29, strong-willed professional. Tries to project an image of success in all aspects of life, but deep down feels that she wasted her best years with Joseph. She has come to a point where the pressure and expectations of life do not allow her to go back, but she wishes with every ounce of her being that she could erase it all. She resents, and yet longs for, the life she and Joseph had together--not because she had happiness, but because she had hope.

JOSEPH: 27, Charming, but emotionally reserved. He's left vulnerable in every aspect of his life, but could never see his time with Maria as a waste. The pressures of getting older and having his life turned upside down weigh heavily on him but his strength and detachment keep him surprisingly level-headed through the insanity that Maria's continue presence brings to his life.

Beantownscoop caveat: Grannies and Grandpas older than 25 may wish to reserve their decrepitude for a film where the 30th birthday is not quite viewed as one-foot-in-the-grave, and mid-life crisis arrives no earlier than 30! ;-)

Special Instructions:
We are CHECKING AVAILABILITY for extra work on the Fighter. Please read these instructions carefully as this is not a normal day on a movie.

We are shooting scenes in a working Massachusetts prison. We will be casting people as inmates, guards and family of inmates. Most will be cast as inmates.

Because the scene is shooting in a real prison, we need to have the scenes cast much earlier than we normally would. This is because all performers must be cleared by the Department of Corrections.

If you are interested in being considered for the scene, and ARE 100% AVAILABLE on Wednesday, August 26th (from dawn to dusk), please express your interest by signing up for the event through Agency Pro. We will be in touch with those selected later this week. If your availability changes before then, please do us the courtesy of removing yourself from the list.

As ever, signing up does not mean you are working. If you are selected you will be contacted by us via email.

Lastly, and most important! We must clear everyone with the Department of Corrections. Please do not sign up if you are uncomfortable giving us your social security number, or if there is a reason you would not be cleared (such as a criminal record).

Tour Beacon Hill's Famous Filming Locations On Foot with Boston Movie Tours

Moviemakers have long-chosen the streets of Boston as the setting of more than 400 TV shows, motion pictures, and high-budget car-dealership commercials featuring explosions and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Grab today's Groupon for 90 minutes and 1.25 miles of reveling in TV-silverscreen-fantasyland: Boston Movie Tours takes you around Beacon Hill to famous filming locations from famous films starring famous and semi-famous actors.

Walk around the Boston Movie Mile in Beacon Hill (the most filmed part of the city) while listening to an expert guide spout off about gossip, behind-the-scenes secrets, and fascinating trivia from TV shows and movies, including:

  • Good Will Hunting: Visit the park bench where Matt Damon and Robin Williams once sat and acted.
  • Ally McBeal: Check out the building used for exterior shots of Cage, Fish & Associates, the law office where Calista Flockhart once practiced.
  • The Departed: Stand where Matt Damon played rugby in the Oscar-winning movie starring Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, and Reggie Bush fan Anthony Anderson.
  • Blown Away: Discover the street of the runaway car crash starring Jeff Bridges and Tommy Lee Jones.
  • Cheers: Visit the inspiration for America's favorite bar-sitcom starring Ted Danson (Cheers's bar was based off Bull & Finch pub on Beacon Street). Choose either 15% off at the Cheers gift shop or any food item in the restaurant (doesn't include alcohol). If you're feeling hungry, take a stab at the Norm Burger (muenster cheese, mushrooms, onion rings, tomatoes, lettuce, and onions), which has been scientifically proven to be too much for anyone other than George Wendt.

Note: Tours are available Thursdays through Mondays in August, and Saturdays and Sundays in September. Dates subject to change.

The Town.

This is for one day of work in Boston, probably in mid-September, and
it's well-paid (a small, 1-day speaking role probably pays at least
$1,500).

There will be nudity required in this scene.

If you, or someone you know, is appropriate for this role, interested,
and available for an audition in Boston within the next few days, as
well as for the shooting date in mid-September, please email your
name, experience, photo, and contact phone number/s to
matt@cpcasting.com.

Your photo should be a full body shot showing you in a swimsuit, or
similar, like a "first song" outfit.

FAQ - How to Work as a Background Extra in a Movie

What's a background extra?
What's a typical day like for an extra?
Who can be an extra, and how?
Do extras get paid?
Can extras meet the stars or attend the premier?

What's a background extra? Background extras play people in the background of a movie scene. If a scene takes place at noon on Newbury St., it must be full of people who fit in there--students, shoppers, a musician, a cabbie etc. Background extras play these parts, but they don't do much. They might pass the main actors during a street scene, or drink a fake beer during a bar scene. Even if extras appear to be talking, they're usually just mouthing the words without any sound.

What's an extra's day like? Extras do their own hair, wardrobe and make-up before arriving on the set for a 14-hour day, as early as 5:00 a.m. Extras will then find out how much additional help they'll get with styling--sometimes a lot, sometimes none! There will be an area called "holding," where the extras spend most of their time. Rules say the actors must be fed regularly. There will be enough food and drink, and it will probably be good! An extra's time actually acting ranges from 0 to a couple hours, so bring something to amuse yourself, like books or work.

Can I be an extra, and how? Almost anyone can be an extra, though not in every movie! Your best bet is to respond promptly to the local casting calls, and to be available on short-notice and for long days. Have a friend take a nice, clean close-up photo of you. You don't need to look like a model. It's more important that your photo really looks like you. You can upload your photo to casting agents like Boston Casting, or print and send in size-cards and photos to agents like C.P. Casting.

There are lots of movies filming in Boston; it's a small city; you're likely to be hired. Once hired, be punctual, prepared, and good-natured, and you're likely to find more work. Subscribe to Beantown Scoop's RSS feed and check out our casting links to stay on top of the latest casting opportunities! If you are lucky, you might even be cast in a speaking role!

Do extras get paid? Yes. Non-union extras usually make $8 to $10 dollars per hour. Since there's so much activity right now in Boston, some non-union extras are getting union waivers, and earning $200 to $300 per day. If you are cast in even a very small speaking role, you will earn at least around $1,000 per day!

Can background extras meet the stars and attend the premier? Nope! Extras can get kicked off the set just for talking to the stars! Your name won't make it into the credits, either! If you're in it for fame, you'll be disappointed, but if you want a new experience that may lead to more, then go for it!
