A recent casting call confirms the upcoming Steve Carell/Toni Collette movie, The Way Way Back, will begin filming in Wareham and Marshfield, Massachusetts later this month.
The Way, Way Back follows a teenage boy who, over the course of a summer vacation, develops a friendship that gives him the courage to stand up to his alcoholic stepfather and reconnect with his mother.
Allison Janney, Sam Rockwell, and AnnaSophia Robb are also set to appear in the film.
There will be an Open Casting Call held in Dorchester, MA on Sunday for SAG-AFTRA members only, but don’t worry if you aren’t a member of the union, there will be another casting call open to everyone soon.

Hi,
I read in the Patriot Ledger that they’re still searching for a skilled “breakdancer.”
I’m a B-Boy, I teach here on the South Shore. I live in Hanover, just two towns from Marshfield.
Do you know how I may contact the casting crew?
thank you,
Sean
Hello, Sean I just read your post and was letting you know that I live in Hanover, MA too. My email is at the top, so if you could reply and tell me what studio you work for will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Anyone know if they are looking for non-union extras for this movie, I live in Green Harbor and have a flexible schedule (would be a blast!).
Thanks,
Al Mac
