Open Casting Call Coming Up in Charlotte for “Paper Towns”

The film “Paper Towns” is about to begin production in Charlotte and is holding an open casting call this coming weekend.

The film’s extras casting director, Tona B. Dahlquist will be hosting the event which will also hold a Christmas drive for our troops.

“Paper Towns,” is based on the book by “The Fault in Our Stars” writer, John Green. The film will begin production in a few weeks and should be filming in the Charlotte area between November and December. The film will be hiring many paid extras of all age groups and types. The film is about 2 teens so they will be needing many teen extras (16+) as well as young adults who can still pass for being high school students. The open call will be held on the 18th at the Concord Mills Mall in Charlotte. Please see all the details below for more details about the event including what to bring with you.

Hoping you can help us get the word out about this joint effort -Casting Call and Collection Drive for the Troops.
