Tom Hanks flick filming from yesterday through 4/20. Background talent checking in and will start tomorrow.

There are some stipulations:

1. Will have your hair cut in 1940s style.
2. No facial hair.
3. Not obese guys: 29”-36” waist requirement.
4. Max height of 6’-2”
5. Weekdays only, but filming days will be 12 hours long.

I was an extra in a few movies a while back just for something different to experience.

That shite is boring as frick. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

being an extra is horrible

boring, you probably won't end up on screen, low pay, get treated like cattle, etc

Clearly you haven't paid attention to the metoo movement. Everyone knows male extras are boy toys for the production crew.

Do they get paid for this? If not, how many people out there has a 1940 style hair cut, that's not fat and has 12 hours to spare?
