Hey there, y’all! Lemme tell ya somethin’ ’bout this Netflix thingamajig in Albuquerque. Heard they’re lookin’ for folks, you know, for them movie shows. Netflix castin’ calls in Albuquerque, that’s what they’re callin’ it.
Now, I ain’t no fancy city slicker, but I know a thing or two ’bout gettin’ noticed. They’re lookin’ for all sorts, young’uns and old farts alike, I reckon. This here Netflix series, they need people. Real people, not them made-up plastic Hollywood types. They’re makin’ these shows, dramas they call ’em, and comedies too. Mix ’em together and whatcha get? A “dramedy,” I heard some fella say. Sounds fancy, huh?
Anyways, they’re doin’ this open castin’ call. That means anyone can go, far as I know. Don’t need no fancy agent or nothin’. Just show up and, well, be yourself I guess. They’re lookin’ for folks in Albuquerque, that’s in New Mexico, for all you city folks who don’t know. They got this place, the UNM Aperture Center, somethin’ like that. Big ol’ buildin’, can’t miss it, they say. That’s where the magic happens, I reckon.
- Where is it? UNM Aperture Center, 5700 West University Blvd, Albuquerque, NM 87106. See, I even got the address!
- When is it? Well, they had one on March 6th, from 2 pm to 5 pm. But they have others too, I hear tell. Gotta keep yer ears open, ya know? Sometimes they need folks in February, sometimes in December and January. Heck, they’re always filmin’ somethin’ somewhere.
- Who are they lookin’ for? All kinds, like I said. Latinos, for one. They got this show ’bout queer love in Albuquerque. Need folks for that. Young folks, late 20s, they said. But they need old folks too, I bet. And everyday people, they said. That’s me! Maybe that’s you too.
Now, some folks say you need an agent to get a part in them Netflix shows. Big shot agents, in big shot cities. But this here’s an open call, so I reckon you don’t need none of that fancy stuff. Just go on down there and show ’em what ya got. Smile pretty, talk loud, and maybe they’ll pick ya.
They’re filmin’ all sorts of stuff, not just that queer love show. Heard about somethin’ called “Ransom Canyon.” Sounds like a cowboy movie to me. They always need cowboys, ain’t that right? And they need folks who look like they belong here, in Albuquerque. This city’s got all sorts of folks, you know, different cultures and whatnot. They need people who can, what’s the word…embody that. Yeah, embody. Be like the city, I guess.
So, if you’re dreamin’ of bein’ a star, or just want to see what it’s all about, go on down to that Albuquerque casting call. What’s the worst that could happen? They say no? Big deal! You tried, that’s what matters. And who knows, maybe you’ll be the next big thing on Netflix. Stranger things have happened, that’s for sure.
They’re lookin’ for lead roles, that’s the main folks in the show, and supportin’ roles, the sidekicks and such. Heard they’re gonna be filmin’ in February 2025, somewhere in California. Westchester or Inglewood, they said. Fancy places, I bet. But they gotta find the folks first, right here in Albuquerque. So, get on down there, ya hear? Don’t be shy. Show ’em what you got. You might just surprise yourself, and them too.
And remember, even if you don’t get picked, it’s an experience, right? You can tell your grandkids you auditioned for Netflix. That’s somethin’ to brag about, ain’t it? So, go on, get out there and chase your dreams. You never know what might happen. And who knows, maybe I’ll see ya on the big screen someday. Just remember, this old gal told you all about it, this whole Netflix casting Albuquerque thing.
