SPORTS MOVIE TO BE FILMED IN MICHIGAN, SEEKS PRIMARY CAST
The feature film Minor league, a football story (working title) is seeking additional cast for lead, primary, and supporting roles. This is a comedy/drama film currently in the beginning stages of pre-production. The majority of financing has been primarily secured, however, this is a low budget film taking advantage of both the SAG's Low Budget agreement as well as the Michigan Tax Incentive.
Official open casting has not began but we are looking to secure primary characters as well as potentially adding minor name talent for small parts. We are looking for mostly in state talent, however we will consider out of state talent if you have a solid working resume (and an inexpensive salary of course :) Yes, because the entire budget has not been completed we will consider Acting Talent who are looking for producing credit for available roles (only if you fit the character type for that specific role). (We are open to both investing producers or name talent for unit credit plus salary in those situations).
