Extras needed for SNL comedy team’s movie being filmed in Charlotte

CHARLOTTE — A casting agency is currently looking for background actors for a comedy movie that’s being filmed in Charlotte.

According to our partners at the Charlotte Observer, film crews were spotted in North Davidson on Monday. Also spotted were Ben Marshall, John Higgins and Martin Herlihy — the three-person comedy collective, Please Don’t Destroy, from “Saturday Night Live.”

Stewart Casting, the agency that handles casting for the popular Netflix series “Outer Banks,” which is filmed in Charleston, is currently taking submissions for extras.

According to a post on the agency’s Facebook page, to be considered, you must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and have received a booster if eligible.

AVClub.com reports that the comedy trio are writing, producing and starring in the film for Universal Pictures, and well-known film director, producer and screenwriter Judd Apatow is involved in the project as well.

Filming in Charlotte is expected to continue until September.
