AMC’s New Series ‘Into the Badlands’ Open Casting Call in New Orleans, Louisiana
Batherson Casting is looking for actors, models, and talent to work on the new AMC show ‘Into the Badlands’ filming in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Into the Badlands is a genre-bending martial arts series very loosely based on the classic Chinese tale Journey to the West. In a land controlled by feudal barons, Into the Badlands tells the story of a great warrior and a young boy who embark on a journey across a dangerous land to find enlightenment.
“We’re incredibly excited to blaze the trail, bringing a martial arts drama to television,” says writer/co-showrunner Miles Millar.
The show stars Hong Kong film star and master martial arts filmmaker Daniel Wu (City of Glass, The Heavenly Kings), Emily Beecham (28 Weeks Later, The Village), Sarah Bolger (The Tudors, In America) and Oliver Stark (The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box, My Hero). The project was created by writers/showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar (Shanghai Noon, Smallville). They’ll serve as Executive Producers alongside Oscar-nominated producers Stacey Sher and Michael Shamberg (Pulp Fiction, Contagion), as well as Stephen Fung and Daniel Wu (Tai Chi Zero).
Casting directors are looking for athletic men and kids with martial arts/fight training to work on the new TV show. To audition for a role on the new TV series, check out the casting call details below:
