CASTING NOTES:
– Morgan Casting is excited to be working on MOBSTERS, INC, a docu-drama shooting this February in Hamilton, ON.
– This series explores some of the most notorious gangs in North America and the police who sought to bring them down.
– Because all roles are silent-on-camera, Morgan Casting is seeking talented performers who can bring these historical characters to life through convincing action!
– We would love to cast as closely as possible in look, height, and eye color; however, please do not limit your suggestion based on eye color, and feel free to go up or down a few inches with height.
– No self tapes.
– Booking from photo & resume.

.
NOTE TO REPRESENTED TALENT:
– We have released this casting call on Breakdown Services (to agents) and on Actors Access as well.
– Our preference is that your agent suggest you (if represented) OR you suggest via your Actors Access account.
– If none of these methods apply, then we welcome a submission via email.

CASTING:

– For a few roles, we only require that the actor have a similar body type to the subject role: height, shape, skin tone, hair colour, etc, as the actor’s face may not be as visible on camera.

– For other characters, a closer look-alike resemblance is desired. These are noted in the role descriptions.
