Do you know of someone that looks like a thug? Showtime’s Shameless is looking for real thugs in Chicago, Illinois.
Showtime’s hit TV series Shameless is now casting African American actors to play thugs on an upcoming scene filming on Tuesday, October 6th in Chicago, Illinois. According to the casting call, casting directors are looking for African American male actors that are at least 6’2 that look “menacing” to work on the upcoming scene.
