So what's with all this David Hasselhoff business? Did I miss something important? Am I gonna have to change my avatar to fit in? Christopher Lloyd's not gonna like that.

Why have you allowed Real Life prevent you from gracing us with your presence.

 

[Ronny Shade]

I wouldn't exactly call it "real life"

 

[StorminNorman]

Is it Movie Life?

 

[Ronny Shade]

not really, no.


WTF is the Maggie Gyllenhaal ****. That's horrible news.

 

[Matt312]

No, it looks to be The Express. It says on there that it films in April and that it lasts three months... hence, Aprik through June which you have put down there for The Express.

This is the casting call for "THE EXPRESS". It's different from the other casting call. It's Batman.

I mean this is Batman
Joan Philo Casting (Fred Claus, Stranger Than Fiction) is gearing up to cast a Summer feature film -- to include a bit of filming at the end of April. We are searching for paid stand-ins for the following:

Caucasian male (20’s – 40’s) blonde hair, 5’10” to 6’3”

Caucasian male (20’s – 40’s) brown hair 5’10” – 6’2”

Caucasian male (20’s – 50’s) brown hair 5’8” – 5’10”

Caucasian male (50’s-70’s) grey hair 6’0 – 6’2”

Caucasian Female (20’s – 30’s) brown hair 5’8” – 5’10”

Asian Male (20’s – 60’s) dark hair and/or clean shaven 5’5” – 6’3”

We need to find people that can free up their lives for about three months and work as stand-ins (non-speaking) for the main characters of this film. If you are flexible enough to take time off from your life and work on a film set please call our hotline number and leave us your name and phone number.

*We also need some extras (non-speaking roles) to work with their cars -- (there is a car bump for the use of your car). If you are a good driver and have a car without any dents that is in good condition, we might be able to have you in a driving scene. We’d like to find some really good drivers that might work a lot through the summer. We are not allowed to cast white or red cars.

Am I missing something? The casting call doesn't say a thing about Chicago.

Do you catch Crispin Glovers?

 

[speedracer216]

I can confirm that it IS Chicago, and it IS BATMAN

I called the #, got a call back, and just went in today to register as an extra. The agency is in Chicago and they have a bunch of offices set up there. (Assistant directors, casting crew, special effects, etc.)

The Lot was labeled "Rory's First Kiss" which we all know is the production title for The Dark Knight.

I remember when this broke. I didn't really think anything of it, but it seems important now.

I wonder why it was taken down.

 

[speedracer216]

jimmy rhoads,

if you see my post right above yours, you'll know i was there. just saying so you believe my reason why it was taken down.
it seems that this is not a general "who wants to be in a movie?" casting call as such. that may come later closer to shooting (which they told me begins in june). it's not speaking parts or anything, but maybe extras who will be closer to the camera and of course the specific drivers (they need a "core group" of drivers to work throughout the summer)

anyway, the days to come register as an extra were today (4/3/07) and tomorrow (4/4/07) so i'm guessing they took it down because they don't have time to get back to people before this deadline is over.

Probably completely jumping to conclusions, but this worried me slightly. They are most likely looking for stand-ins for main characters in the movie, and this seems like a pretty accurate description of Aaron Eckhart. Do you think this means he's keeping his blonde hair for Dent?

 

[Agentsands77]

I'd say it's a safe bet that Ekhart is keeping his blonde hair. And I don't have a problem with it in the least (it definitely fits the whole "Apollo" image Dent has had in the past).

 

[Steelsheen]

well, i would've certainly preferred that Dent keep more in line with his comic book images but if Eckhart looks better in his natural locks then so be it. i just cant wait till this guy gets to strut his stuff on screen.
