Speaking Roles $250/12 hour day

Extras $60/12 hr day  

Non-Union. Local Hire

Sunday, December 5th

• Dr. Zargon: 30s. Ridiculously intelligent mastermind with little scruples. Yet despite their  intelligence, there lies a certain level of arrogance which masks a significant blind spot. More  comfortable delegating to others until their ego gets in the way. 
  
• John Stone: 30s-early 40s. Ruggedly handsome, square-jawed. A bit sarcastic but willing to get  his own hands dirty (or bloodied) to accomplish the mission. In short, your typical renegade action hero. 
  
• Korda: 30s-40s. A capable right-hand man to Dr. Zargon. Yet Korda is also an indefatigable yes man, unwilling to spot his boss’s flaws. Dependable to a fault, and quite a bit of a toady, but can  also handle himself in a fight. 
  
• Heavy (extra): 40s. Muscular and more than a match for John Stone. He’s a strong, silent type.

Hylton Casting is currently casting the following extra roles for the TV series P-Valley Season 2. Please review the breakdown below for additional details.

Show Description:

Down deep in the Mississippi Delta lies the Pynk, an oasis of grit and glitter in a rough patch of human existence where beauty can be hard to find. This southern-fried, hour-long drama from award-winning playwright Katori Hall tells the kaleidoscopic story of a little-strip-club-that-could and the big characters who come through its doors—the hopeful, the lost, the broken, the ballers, the beautiful, and the damned. Trap music meets film noir in this lyrical and atmospheric series that dares to ask what happens when small-town folk dare to dream beyond the boundaries of the Piggly Wiggly and the pawn shop…
