Dwayne Johnson’s Lizard Music: How to Audition for the Upcoming Fantasy Film

Overview

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is taking on one of the most unusual roles of his career in Lizard Music, an upcoming fantasy-adventure film written and directed by Benny Safdie.

Based on Daniel Pinkwater’s cult children’s novel, Lizard Music follows a young boy who discovers mysterious late-night television broadcasts featuring lizards playing music. His search for answers leads him to an eccentric figure known as the Chicken Man, played by Dwayne Johnson, and a surreal world filled with mystery, imagination, and unexpected friendship.

The project has already attracted major attention because it reunites Johnson with Safdie after The Smashing Machine and gives Johnson a dramatically different character to play. Johnson has spoken publicly about slimming down for the whimsical role of the elderly Chicken Man, whose best friend is a chicken named Claudia.

With filming expected to take place in Georgia, New York, and Hawaii, Lizard Music could create exciting opportunities for background actors, photo doubles, stand-ins, and specialty talent.

What Is Lizard Music About?

Lizard Music centers on a young boy who comes across a strange late-night TV broadcast showing lizards playing music. What begins as a curious discovery soon turns into a magical adventure involving hidden worlds, unusual characters, and a mysterious connection to the lizard musicians.

Dwayne Johnson stars as the Chicken Man, a quirky and eccentric older man who helps guide the story’s young protagonist. The character is a major departure from Johnson’s typical action roles, giving him a chance to transform into a more whimsical and offbeat figure.

The film is expected to blend fantasy, adventure, comedy, and heartfelt storytelling. With Benny Safdie writing and directing, Lizard Music may bring a unique visual style and emotional depth to Daniel Pinkwater’s beloved story.


Dwayne Johnson’s Lizard Music Casting Opportunities

Casting opportunities for Lizard Music may include background actors, photo doubles, stand-ins, and specialty roles for scenes involving neighborhoods, schools, family settings, community spaces, and Little League baseball environments.

Recent casting details have included opportunities for adults to portray family members attending a Little League baseball game in Brooks, Georgia. Additional reports have also referenced casting for a full-time photo double for a child actor connected to Lizard Music.

  • Neighborhood background actors
  • Children and young performers
  • Photo doubles
  • Stand-ins
