Fast and Furious 3 casting call

FastandtheFurious-S2k.jpgWant to be in The Fast and Furious 3? Well I would like to get me and my car (almost pictured!) sitting in the background somewhere, but I don't have neon glow lights on the underside, or a huge rear spoiler, or a nitros system hooked up, I'm not an actor and I'm Scottish...so I guess not. However you could be one of the leads! Coming Soon is carrying the casting call.

Finn Hiller Casting (Crash, Coach Carter) is seeking male actors of any ethnicity and Japanese female actresses leads in the Universal Pictures feature film, Fast and Furious 3: Tokyo. The film is about an obsessive street racer named Shaun who is exiled to Tokyo after annoying the local police once too often...

...If you are interested, contact the following:

Sarah Halley Finn and Randi Hiller,
Casting Directors...

If you go over to Coming Soon and check out the full blurb, as well as the postal address, then you could see if you fit the bill. You never know, you might just make it on there, especially if you have a nice fast car!

If you could have been cast in a movie, what part do you think you'd have best played? I don't mean just wildly going and choosing something, thinking about how you look, your personality, something about your life that stands out...what part would you have suited best? I know I'd be cast as a hard character, perhaps a Vinnie Jones \ Billy Connolly mix. I'm always being told I look like a bouncer! What about you?

I sent an e-mail to them and i just got one back saying they can only employee people aged 18. If only they would start filming in November as that is when i will be 18

I would be a little hesitant to offer up my name and address to anyone online claiming to be a casting agency that has to use a GMAIL address.

Sounds more to me like a scam collecting names and addresses of people who think their car is pimp.

I might be wrong, but why cant this very real and very legitimate company use a domain based email address?

Perhaps because the movie isn't that big? There could be many reasons, they could see the Gmail email business model is the more sensible one rather than investing in their own email systems. Who knows.

Advice to those applying. Do not tell them personal details until you have some firm evidence that they are genuinely interested. Just use the same rules you would for contacting any Internet service really.

Thanks for highlighting that Rodney.
