About Tall Girl:
After launching a worldwide open casting call for the upcoming Netflix series Tall Girl, casting directors are now casting background extras to work on scenes filming in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The film was written by Sam Wolfson and will be directed by Nzingha Stewart. The movie centers around Jodi, “the tallest girl in her school, who has never quite felt comfortable in her own statuesque skin. All of that changes when she falls for the handsome (and equally tall) foreign exchange student Stig, who of course gets Jodi’s quirky, best, male friend Dunkleman and his hippie mom as a host family. As a result, Jodi gets embroiled in a surprising love triangle, which helps her realize she’s far more than her insecurities about her height have led her to believe.”
