Default Casting Call for new James Franco movie in Suffolk

http://www.dailypress.com/news/dp-lo...,1162420.story


Directors will hold a casting call for a short film by actor James Franco on Monday in Suffolk.

The film, called "Herbert White," was written and will be directed by Franco, who starred in the 2008 films "Milk" and "Pineapple Express." Details of the movie's subject have not been released, but directors say they are primarily looking for children's roles. Franco will not be on set during the casting call.

The call is open to anyone between the ages of 3 and 55, and participants should bring several pictures of themselves. Casting will begin at 5 p.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn, 100 E. Constance Road.

For more information and a description of the movie's characters, visit castingva .com or call Henry Jaderlund at 813-4300.


The casting call will be held Monday March 30th at 5pm at the HILTON GARDEN INN in Suffolk, VA --

Address : 100 East Constance Rd. Suffolk, VA 23434


Please be aware the shoot dates will be April 9th - 12th, so you may have to shoot one of those days depending on the schedule. Shooting locally in Suffolk, Va and surrounding areas.

Basically feel we're going for... everyone is very run down and poor, adults are 'tired looking' and mostly alcoholic... the kids are the type to get muddy on the farm, barefoot, etc.
All from a country, farming town.

Here's the list of characters we are casting:

Two sisters, ages 10-13. They will be sitting at the dinner table listening to the mom talk. One line each “Amen”.

Boy, aged 6-10. Also sitting at the dinner table listening to mom talk. One line- “Amen”.

Young Herbert -aged 14-18. This is the type of young man who’s grown up on a farm and knows how to handle animals. He is introverted and brooding. 5 scenes. (In real life they'd like someone who is not afraid of animals because this person will be around goats, also someone who isn't very shy.

Mom – early 40’s, worn down and drunk. Backwoods type. 3 scenes

Dad – early 40s, drunk, loud, redneck. 4 scenes

Daughter – this is a 3 year old girl that can fit into a safety seat in a car.

Son – aged 5-9. Dark blond hair. Has 2 lines.

Wife of 40 yo Herbert – mid 30’s, she’s a smart alleck, fed up with her husband. One scene.

Girl Victim – aged 17-20. (Miss Peanut type)
