There’s a lot going on in the Charlotte region’s film industry. This weekend, two feature films will have casting calls. The first is for “Artemis,” which is looking for thousands of extras.
Although all ages and all types are needed, there’s a particular need for children between the ages of 12 and 18. Those interested should bring a non-returnable current snapshot to either the casting call at Cleveland Mall in Shelby on Saturday, between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. or to Carolina Mall in Concord on Sunday, 12:30-3:30 p.m.
Details are on the Charlotte Regional Film Commission’s website at http://charlotteusa.com/news-media/news/artemis-casting-call-416-417/.
The second casting call this weekend is for 13- and 18-year-old boys who look exactly like Adam Sandler and want to play him in his R-rated movie “I Hate You Dad” that will be shooting in June. That casting call will be this Sunday, 2-5 p.m. at the Quality Inn & Suites in Matthews. Those interested should bring a non-returnable current photo, and minors must be accompanied by an adult.

Finally, HGTV is back in the region looking for people who will buy their first home between May and August. Those interested in being featured in “Property Virgins” should email propertyvirgins@cineflix.com.
