Thousands of extras sought for 'Sweet Girl' movie filming in Pittsburgh

Thousands of paid extras are being sought for the filming of the Netflix thriller “Sweet Girl,” starring Jason Momoa, when production begins in the Pittsburgh area in mid-November.

Extras of all ages — kids, teens, adults and senior citizens of all ethnicities — are needed to portray Pittsburgh baseball fans, pedestrians, blue-collar workers, shoppers, upscale gala attendees, subway passengers, law enforcement (stadium security, TSA, FBI, police officers), hospital staff, airline passengers, flight attendants, first responders, “suited business types” and news media. No experience is necessary.

Casting call will be held 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 26 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, Downtown. For details, www.movieextraspittsburgh.com
