This is a great opportunity to appear in a movie with a very promising premise. This casting call is for both featured roles and extras, so you could find yourself with a main role. Independent movies with the backing of Oscar nominated writers tend to be huge with the Academy during future award shows. The movie Mud starring Matthew McConaughey was a similar type of movie. It had a low budget, but it was written by award winning screenplay writer Jeff Nichols. Once Mud was released, it quickly took off and was even considered an early contender for an Oscar. A movie like Troupe Zero has the potential to grab a huge audience and take off. Needless to say, it is in your best interest as an aspiring actor to apply to a relatively unknown film with great potential. Even if it isn’t a box office buster, you will gain plenty of experience and exposure in the industry.
