Rory's First Kiss (Batman/Dark Knight) Casting Call
On the show today, I talked about a casting call that's being held for "Rory's First Kiss." That's been reported as the code name for the new Batman movie that's being shot here, "The Dark Knight" starring Christian Bale.
If you're interesed it's this Saturday, July 14,from 10:00am-3:30pm at the Chicago Academy for the Arts...1010 W. Chicago Avenue. They're looking for men and women of all ethnicities, 18 years of age and older, to work as paid extras as "victims or perpetatorswithin a city beseiged with crime and corruption." That would be Gotham City.
The ask that you bring a recent color photgraph and a pen.
Good Luck!

Do you need to be 18, or can you be a little younger and have a parent approve your participation in the movie?

Is the actual shooting from 10-3:30, or is Saturday just the sign-up date?

I did some extras work with them in late June. I hope I can help answer some of your questions.
This is just a sign-up; after they take your info, they will call you if they need you for any on-set days. They call way in advance too.
You can come if you are under 18; if you are 16 or younger, a parent or guardian must be on set with you. If you are 17 you don't need a parent. However, if you are under 18, it is unlikely they can choose you because of child-labor laws. Legally, you can only work 10 hours and shoots are almost always much longer than that.
But go anyway and see! I mean, not everyone in Gotham can be old!
And no celebs- they're too busy shooting the movie!
Hope this helps!
