The 5th Wave spent over $20 million in Georgia
When The 5th Wave was filming in Atlanta is was extremely difficult to keep up with the large number of casting calls for the movie. There were so many casting calls, we almost garunteed that at least 1,000 aspiring actors were hired to work on the upcoming Sony Pictures sci-fi movie. So, the next piece of news does not come as much of a suprise.
According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, The 5th Wave spent $21.7 million Georgia. Wow. Georgia’s film industry is booming.
The latest 5th Wave casting call was about a year ago, January 11th 2015th to be exact, and Tammy Smith Casting was looking for Asian men and women to work on the major scene. But, what is The 5th Wave about anyways?
In the 5th Wave, four waves of increasingly deadly attacks have left most of Earth decimated. Against a backdrop of fear and distrust, 16-year-old Cassie is on the run, desperately trying to save her younger brother. As she prepares for the inevitable and lethal 5th wave, Cassie meets a young man who may become her final hope. Directed by J. Blakeson the Action-adventure series features Chloë Grace Moretz, Matthew Zuk, and Gabriela Lopez.
The 5th Wave hits theaters on Thursday, January 21st.
