Please note: this casting call was updated on 7 March after the casting days were extended. The following is the latest, updated info:

Cool casting!


Background Noises Casting studio is looking for two convincing performers between the ages of 25 to 35 (this changed from 25 to 30) for a new South African TV commercial that's going to be filmed in Joziburg.

These are the roles that are up for grabs:

Joey
 
In his mid-20s. A total rugby fan. It's been in his blood for generations. He views the world through Rugby. Has a passion for the game that is unmatched. However, he has been injured and we have to see that spirit inspire another to take his place. He becomes the mentor.
 
Andrew
 
Also in his mid-20s. Total opposite to Joey. Couldn't care less about sports. Focused on other things. However has the spirit to understand that he has a mission to fulfil and takes to it like a fish to water. Initially flustered, he finds the place where he can bring himself to understand what his friend wants. He is the student.

Important dates

Auditions took place in Johannesburg last week from Wednesday, 2 March through to Friday, 4 March.

They're also happening this week, from Monday, 7 March to Friday, 11 March. From 09h00 to 15h30.

The shoot dates have changed to Wednesday and Thursday, 30 and 31 March.

How to be seen

If you'd like to audition you can send an e-mail with photographs of yourself to backgroundnoisescasting@gmail.com.

If you're between 30 and 35 you can now apply Mpho.

The ages for the casting have been extended to 35. They've also extended the casting date because the shoot dates have been moved to later. They're doing more castings from today (7 March) through to Friday (11 March) and the shoot dates are now 30 to 31. We've updated the info in the article above.

Update! A heads-up that this ad is still looking to cast the role of Joey - they're auditioning tomorrow (Tuesday, 15 March) and have asked for muscular white guys who REALLY look like a guy who's obssessed with rugby.
