As we’ve reported, the highly anticipated film Divergent will begin shooting in Chicago this spring.
The movie, based on Veronica Roth’s young adult novel about a teenage girl who lives in a dystopian Chicago, will begin a 60-day shoot in April and will be based at Cinespace Chicago Film Studios. Shailene Woodley will play the lead character, Tris.
We’ve now learned Atmosphere Casting will be handling extras for the film and they’ve set up a dedicated Facebook Page for the project.
According to the most recent posts on the page, they are looking for a stand-in for Shailene and, though they aren’t casting extras yet, they will need mostly young adults, “between 18-24, thin, athletic, and mixed ethnicity, but mostly Caucasian.”
Keep an eye on the Divergent Extras Casting Facebook Page for more casting calls as they become available.
I am interested in being an extra in Chicago this year! 312-912-1455 (cell)
