USA Network Casting directors are now casting actors, models, and talent to work on the new limited series ‘EVEL’ starring Milo Ventimiglia filming in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Producers are looking for local area actors to work various paid roles in upcoming episodes of ‘EVEL’
About ‘EVEL’:
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Milo Ventimiglia will play Evel Knievel in USA Network limited series set to begin production this March 2020 in New Mexico. Ventimiglia has agreed to star in and executive produce the USA Network limited series Evel, which is based on the life of the late 1970s-era daredevil Evel Knievel. The show will follow Knievel as he prepares for his greatest stunt, the legendary Snake River Canyon jump in 1974. THR describes the series as follows “a portrait of a complex man living the American dream, juggling meteoric celebrity and raising a family — and the very real probability that his next jump will kill him.”
