“HYSTERIA” // VOLUNTEERS – MALES & FEMALES // 18-100 // FILMS 5.4 // Sub Request

Casting TaylorMade (Casting™) is searching for background artists to play VOLUNTEERS for an upcoming film date. Filming will be 5/4 and your fitting/covid test will be 5/1 or 5/2.

As most of you know, we also cast for another VERY popular show that takes place in the 80s. Due to the popularity of that show, we HIGHLY suggest and recommend you work on “Hysteria” with us so we can see that you are reliable. We will 100% be taking your professionalism & attendance from “Hysteria” into consideration when booking for that Netflix show.

“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!
