“HYSTERIA” // MISC. ROLES – PEDESTRIANS, NEIGHBORS, PATRONS, WAITRESS, MOM // 18-100 // FILMS 5.22 // Sub Request

Casting TaylorMade (Casting™) is searching for:

• Background artists to play PEDESTRIANS, NEIGHBORS, PATRONS, WAITRESS, MOM for an upcoming film date. Filming will be Monday 5/22, Fitting 5/18 or 5/19 (ideally we will have you pre-fit – if unavailable to pre-fit, you will fit on set).

“Hysteria” is set in the 1980s – so it is very important that you upload a current selfie with today’s date on a piece of paper. We need to see exactly how your hair/facial hair looks for hair/makeup purposes. Because of the nature of this show, we ask:

Males: Please do not cut your hair or shave your sideburns between now and filming

Females: We ask for your hair color to be a natural color. Shorter styles, layers and bangs are great! Please also no artificial nails or bright colored nails. No extremely long nails. Try to stick to as natural and neutral as possible.

Side note > We will begin casting the other 1980s netflix show in the upcoming months so these rules will be the same for that production as well!
