We’re ready for our close-up, Mr. Van Sant.
Wanted: Extras for a new movie that’s filming in Louisville, “Dead Man’s Wire” starring Bill Skarsgård and Dacre Montgomery.
According to Deadline, the thriller is based on a true story that follows, “a former real estate developer who takes the mortgage banker who did him wrong hostage, demanding $5 million and a personal apology.”
The film is being directed by Oscar-nominee Gus Van Sant, whose previous work includes movies like “Good Will Hunting” and “Milk.” Fun fact: Van Sant was born in Louisville.
Here’s the need-to-know info from the casting call:
- Roles include pedestrians, police officers, state troopers, detectives, lawyers, and news reporters
- Extras will need to be available for around three weeks, from Saturday, Jan. 11 through Wednesday, Feb. 5.
