“Jurassic World” Open Casting call in New Orleans

Extras for “Jurassic Park 4” – “Jurassic World”

A new casting call has just been announced!

Great news for those that missed the first open casting call for “Jurassic World“, you have another shot at getting into the “Jurassic Park” film because a 2nd open casting call for extras and background has been scheduled for the 26th!

“Jurassic World” is scheduled to begin filming in May and casting directors will be needing 1000’s of extras. There was an open call last month for the movie and seems they still need more people because they will be doing it again.

“Jurassic World” is currently filming in Hawaii and production will be heading to New Orleans soon.

The project is using the working title of “Ebb Tide” and is looking for general background extras that are ages 5 to 85. Families are welcome to come apply together and they are particularity interested in those who have a military background.

If you are attending, you must bring 2 forms of ID which can be a valid U.S. passport or passport card, valid permanent resident card, valid driver’s license or photo ID, and an original Social Security card or birth certificate.

If you cannot make it to the open call in person, you can email a photo and contact info to the casting directors at louisiana@centralcasting.com.  At this time they are only seeking New Orleans locals since the film is shooting there. All extras will be paid an hourly rate which is about minimum wage, but travel expenses will not be covered.

The next feature film in the “Jurassic Park” franchise, “Jurassic World” is gearing up to begin filming and of course, they will be needing lots of extras. Men, women, families, and especially those with international or ethnic looks can all come on down.
