Casting Drivers with New Model Cars for Feature Film Love of Your Life

Job Description
A feature film titled Love of Your Life is now seeking drivers with new model cars to appear in a 2030 futuristic scene. This is a great opportunity for car owners who want to showcase their vehicles on camera. Drivers with hybrids and electric cars are especially encouraged to apply.

Love of Your Life is an upcoming Amazon MGM romantic drama starring Gabriel Basso and Margaret Qualley. Directed by award-winning cinematographer-turned-director Rachel Morrison, the film explores themes of love, loss, and resilience. The story follows a young widow, played by Qualley, as she navigates life after the death of her husband and embarks on a journey of self-discovery.

Produced by Ryan Gosling and Jessie Henderson under Open Invite Entertainment, the film features an ensemble cast including Aaron Pierre (The Underground Railroad) and Patrick Schwarzenegger (The White Lotus).
