A few lucky Pittsburgh kids may soon have the opportunity to make a few bucks and appear in a Netflix show.
Lawrenceville-based Mosser Casting put out a casting call Wednesday for child actors needed as production on Netflix series “The Chair,” starring Sandra Oh and Jay Duplass, kicks into high gear throughout Western Pennsylvania.

The show is specifically looking for young girls ages 6-9 with “black hair past her shoulders” who would be available between Feb. 24 and March 25. It’s also searching for a “1-year-old Korean Girl,” preferably twins, for a March 12 start date.
If your child is chosen for the roles, they will be paid $200 a day as long as they follow the strict COVID-19 safety protocols Netflix has employed to help keep its sets safe.
“The Chair” is a six-episode dramedy about a university English department written and executive produced by Amanda Peet, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the creators of “Game of Thrones.”
Earlier this week, it was announced that the show had rounded out its main cast with Bob Balaban (“The Politician”), Nana Mensah (“13 Reasons Why”), Everly Carganilla (“Jane the Virgin”) and David Morse (“Blindspot”).
