"Red Scare" Auditions

Hello. So, first, some bad news. Got an email from the Festival de Cannes telling me that BGR was not accepted, blah blah blah, so many entries, blah blah blah, they can only select a very small number, yadda yadda yadda. Well, it's not like I wanted to go to an amazing festival in a beautiful part of France and hobnob with people who can advance my (and the rest of the BGR family's) career. Sigh. C'est la vie. We still have plenty more festivals to hear back from, and more that we haven't submitted to yet.

Next. Some better news. In April, we plan to hold auditions for several of the roles in:



If interested in auditioning for this movie, please email headshots and resumes to RedScareMovie@gmail.com.

The following parts need to be cast. Note: all roles must be comfortable wearing basic makeup. All principle roles must have great comic timing.

Principle Roles:

General Carter (Male, 30’s-40’s) The guy in charge. Strong presence, natural leader.

Miles O’Shaunnesey (Male, 20’s) Young, enthusiastic hero worshipper, but smarter than he seems.

Sasha (Female, 20’s-30’s) Gorgeous. Must be capable of an American accent and a Russian accent and everything in between the two. Russian accent doesn’t have to be accurate, can be over the top. Must be able to range from evil, to seductive, to slapstick comedy in the same scene.

Winston (Male, 20’s-30’s) Preppy, arrogant high schooler. Willing to cast older or younger.

Carl (Male teens-20's) African American High Schooler. Incredibly expressive face.

Lou (Male, 30’s and up) Older, but full of energy. Think Ed Asner from Mary Tyler Moore Show or J. Jonah Jameson from the Spiderman movies.

Stevie (teens-20’s) Must come off as young/easily frightened, enthusiastic intern/photographer. Willing to look at both men and women for this role. Must be excellent at slapstick comedy.

President of the United States (30’s and up) Leader of the free world, in a wheelchair. Commands attention. Calm and gentle one minute, ruthless the next.

Nurse (20’s-30’s) Sexy nurse. Not too bright, giggly, Marilyn Monroe type.

Secondary Roles

The biker gang:
Eyepatch (Male, late teens-20’s) Biker gang type, tough, but a follower. Must be comfortable in an eyepatch.
Tooty Fruity Judy (female, late teens-20’s) Female member of the gang. Tough. Character types welcome.
Slim (Male, late teens-20’s) Tough. Can be comically skinny or fat.
Rough Randy (Male, late teens-20’s) Short, lots of energy.

The minions: Russian soldiers. Capable of Russian accents, or cartoon versions of Russian accents.

The preppie gang: a group of both men and women to be Winston’s gang.

Stay tuned!
