You're Not A West Philly Hipster, But You Can Play One In The Movies

greeen

Do you have nothing to do tomorrow?  Can you see yourself as a convincing hippie, Asian businessman or sombrero guy?  Then you, friend, could be a movie star.  Via the Green Line Cafe's website, we hear that the producers of Napoleon Dynamite are looking for Green Line-esque people to populate their Green Line-inspired set.  Read on for the full announcement.

EXTRAS WANTED FOR FEATURE FILM “CAFÉ” From the Producers of Napoleon Dynamite Written and directed by Mark Erlbaum, WHO WROTE THE FILM WHILE SITTING AT THE GREEN LINE!

The cafe will be used for exterior shots and they are currently building a set based on the layout and atmosphere of the Green Line. The producers would love to have “real” Green Line folks as extras.

First shoot is still frame photography (tattoo’d individuals wanted!). We plan to do the shoot on Tuesday, May 5th from 11am to 1pm so time is tightening up. It’s paid work ($20) and the folks we cast will get a pretty cool large format print of the still shot.

Location: 9.14 Pictures 1804 Chestnut Street — Suite 2 Philadelphia PA 19083

Additional production: May 10th to May 27th at 200 Bala Ave, Bala Cynwyd PA, 19004.

Extras needed 1 to 15 days between 7am to 7pm. Paid (…though barely). Looking for all types. Character faces wanted.

If interested in extra work and/or tattoo’d photo shot, contact (with photo and availability):
