I am excited to announce the third and final casting call for KILLIN’ JIM KELLY. Please read all details below.

 
The final casting call for KILLIN’ JIM KELLY, our Texas Western, will take place January 14th in Grapevine, Texas (address coming soon) from 10am to 5pm. It is an open call, meaning we will see as many actors as we can during those seven hours on a first come, first served basis. There will be a waiting area and we will call you to audition when it is your turn. There are no longer opportunities to send a taped audition so please do not ask.
There are nine characters available to audition for including roles for men, women and actors of various ethnicities. The compensation for all roles is $100 a day. This is a non-union film and we are aiming to schedule production during April of 2023 near Fort Worth, Texas.
