CASTING CALL: BearCity Needs Hirsute Extras

As you may recall, last week The New York Times declared that the must-have male accessory for late summer is an old-fashioned gut!

Which is why the folks producing the new movie BearCity could not be more on-trend.

Billed as a Gay romantic comedy set in NYC’s “bear community” – the movie is seeking hirsute extras as it shoots in the city next week.

The three nights of filming will take place at that mecca of all things Bear — the Eagle Bar in the MeatPacking District and will include a range of indoor/outdoor drama-filled scenes anchored around…well…parties.

The film itself stars a clutch of under-known TV veterans. And wisely — considering the well-fed crowd — food and drinks will be in ample supply.

And guess extras will also receive a copy of the film when it’s completed.

The casting call advert doesn’t say what you actually have to do to be a BearCity extra — though it does say all colors, sizes, shapes and hairy peculiarities are welcome.

And even if you don’t make the cut — at least the Westside is far closer than a shlep out to Governor’s Island to play an extra Zombie.

If anyone out there shows up for their close-up — please report back.

We’ll be keeping ourselves — and our newly-trendy gut — safe at home.
