PITTSBURGH,None — Another major motion picture is searching for extras in the Pittsburgh area and will host an open casting call this weekend.
Walden Media's "Steel Town" stars Maggie Gyllenhaal, Viola Davis, Holly Hunter and Rosie Perez.
The story follows two mothers who team up to help make a difference at a local school. The film will shoot through the end of July in Pittsburgh.
The open casting call will be held July 9 and 10 from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. at The Radisson Hotel in Greentree (101 Radisson Drive, Pittsburgh, Pa. 15205).
The production said it is searching for "all types" and said no experience is necessary for the paid positions.
Potential extras must be legal U.S. residents and are asked to bring a recent non-returnable photograph to the casting call.
Nearly 9,000 people turned out for "The Dark Knight Rises" casting call in downtown Pittsburgh last month. The last movie in the "Batman" series will begin filming here in late July.
