Hey you Florida Folks! If you've ever dreamed of being in the movies, here's your chance!! Producers of The Punisher will be conducting an open casting call for extras on Saturday, July 19 at The Florida Aquarium in Tampa, FL, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Parking is available at The Florida Aquarium lot or the Port Authority garage, both on Channelside Drive, for a small charge.
Anyone interested in being an extra in The Punisher should plan to attend the casting call. Participants are asked to bring a recent snapshot; organizers stress that a professional headshot is not required. Approximately 2,000 extras will be needed for several small scenes throughout the course of the movie. Casting agents are interested in a wide range of looks, so people of all demographic profiles are encouraged to participate.
A hotline has been established with recorded information on the casting call. The number is (813) 273-8158. Information will also be posted at VisitTampaBay.com.
The Punisher is based on the Marvel comic book series of the same name, and will star Thomas Jane, John Travolta, and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, among others. Production on the movie is expected to start August 2 and continue through October at various locations throughout the Tampa Bay area. Artisan Entertainment and Marvel Studios are producing the film. The Punisher is scheduled to hit theatres nationwide in Summer 2004.
