New martial arts film casting in Brevard County
“It’s very, very exciting because let’s face it. He’s coming back here to do it in his hometown, to hire local people,” said Space Coast Film Commissioner Bonnie King.
A synopsis listed on Moviepilot.com said Wilson and Rothrock play an aunt and uncle who take in a troubled young family member after the death of his mother. They teach him martial arts from their Florida beach town in order to help him control his anger and rage.
The cast list reads like a who’s who in the martial arts world with names like Tara Cardinal, Daniel Moncada, Matthew Ziff, Adrienne Camille, Alan Goldberg, Glenn Wilson, Gerry Blanck, Rick St. Clair, Eric Kovaleski, Olando “The Warrior” Rivera, and Bill “Superfoot” Wallace.
“It’s a Clint Eastwood-y type of film,” Baumgarten said.
For casting, bring headshots, and be prepared to do a screen test. Baumgarten, who spent time in Brevard when he was growing up in Orlando, is looking for extras. Lots of extras.
“We need a lot of people for school, extras that could be the students, extras for the parking lot, the hallways, the classroom,” he said.
