Open casting call for The 19th Wife

If you’ve ever dreamed of being in the movies, your chance is coming.

A made-for-TV movie titled The 19th Wife will be filming in Calgary next month and producers are searching for extras.

An open casting call will be held on Saturday at Eau Claire Market  (main floor, across from the Good Earth Cafe) from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Another casting call will be held in the same location on May 26 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Casting directors are searching for Caucasian males and females of all ages.

Women and girls must have long hair, and men and boys need to have farm or ranching-type hair cuts.

Extras Casting Director Alyson Lockwood tells 660News if you are chosen, it’s not a big time commitment. Extras only need to dedicate one full day for filming.

The 19th Wife will be based on the international best seller by David Ebershoff.

His novel of the same name is about one of the multiple wives of Brigham Young, the man at the centre of the Latter Day Saints movement.
