Brock Allen Casting is teaming up with HBO for the new season of ‘The Leftovers‘ Season 2 filming in Austin, Texas.
The Leftovers Season 2, Starring Justin Theroux, Amy Brenneman, Carrie Coon, and Liv Tyler, is looking for paid background extras of all ages and ethnicities. No experience is necessary and casting directors are looking for real people and families to be a part of the show.
The Leftovers takes place three years after a global event in which many people disappeared, known as the “Sudden Departure”, which caused the unexplainable disappearance of 140 million people, 2% of the world’s population. The story focuses primarily on the Garvey family and their acquaintances in the fictional town of Mapleton, New York. Kevin Garvey is the Chief of Police. His wife, Laurie, has joined a cult called the “Guilty Remnant”. Their son, Tommy, has left home for college while their daughter, Jill, is acting out.
According to reports, for the second season, 6 of the 14 main cast members from season one have been confirmed as returning, with Liv Tyler, Ann Dowd, Emily Meade, Amanda Warren, Annie Q., Max Carver, Charlie Carver and Michael Gaston’s status all currently unknown. If not returning as main cast members, those stars returning in guest roles are a possibility. Casting is under way for an African-American family made up of father, ex-convict John Murphy, his hearing impaired doctor wife, Erika; and their teenage children Evie, an outgoing athlete, and Michael, a pious christian.
