Ryan Gosling’s First Man is now casting scientists in Atlanta, Georgia.
Casting directors are now casting new talent to work on scenes filming between October and January in Atlanta, Georgia. Producers are seeking people to play pilots, reporters, physcists, astronomers and other featured roles.
About First Man:
Josh Singer, who earned an Oscar for his Spotlight screenplay, wrote First Man based on James Hansen’s biography, First Man: A Life of Neil A. Armstrong. Gosling has reportedly been tied to the project since late last year, but only inked a deal to star in the film earlier this year.
After serving as a Navy pilot in World War II, Neil Armstrong joined the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, the precursor to NASA, as a test pilot and engineer. His first mission as an astronaut was Gemini 8 in 1962, during which he performed the first successful docking of two vehicles in space. On July 21st, 1969 he became the first person to walk on the moon as part of Apollo 11.
