The wheels of casting Mortal Engines are slowly beginning to turn. It's no secret in the city of Wellington that casting has begun for Mortal Engines and there's been many a lass auditioning for the parts of young Hester Shaw.
Now though, a public call has been made for extras to take part in the movie. A listing on New Zealand's popular trading site Trade Me made the call this month.
The call asked for applicants to be 17 years or older, able to work with just 12 hours notice and be willing to accept the grand fee of $200.00 per day (excluding over time)
Filming is happening at Wingnuts' Miramar Studios in Wellington which suggests that a lot of the movie is being filmed on sound stages and green screen. We're sure however that the landscape of New Zealand which has featured in many Peter Jackson films will be used, especially for the middle scenes of Mortal Engines.
Of interest is the user who listed the add on the Trade Me site went by the name 'sqeakywheels' which is a cute reference to the book and movie.
The call is now closed so all those of you wanting to move to NZ to be in the movie have missed out...!
