They are still hiring for Serenity. Some of the OB people, who hadn't had a response to their photos, telephoned and were hired.

This is a link to the number should anyone want to try:

It's the third post down.

Please don't harrass them though, we don't want to put them off hiring us.

Edit: okay, link not working. I have pasted the info further down the page. Keep reading.

This is why I like fireflyfans.net: the forums make a whole lot more sense in terms of navigation. :)

I've looked for the post with the number, but I'm coming up short. Haven't found anything yet. )=

I will find the right link for you guys just a sec.

I can't find it now. I think it was deleted. You can try emailing the Duke, Damnitgirlie, or Saxon through their profiles over at the OB.

Good luck!

Actually, this was posted today:

<< went down to the Background Players office today to drop off my info. They told me that their phone number has changed since the move to the new office.
I asked them about posting the new number, and they said they did not want to do that at this time. They said that they were almost done with their part of the work on Serenity, and did not think it would help to have people calling in. >>

Sorry, my link doesn't work, keeps linking to a different thread. Basically, some people at the OB hadn't had a response to their photos, so decided to try phoning. They were advised to call the following number:

>>I thought I would post it here so anyone that is having the same problem can use it 323-692-1790. Just ask for Judy or Sasha and your all set. Good luck everyone...<<

The number didn't work to begin with, hence the post mentioned by Meaculpa. This post was later edited to say the number was now working:

>>Update: Don't know why I was told something different today, but the previously posted phone number is working now!!! <<

A couple of the OB people have since called and have been offered parts. Once again though I would advise you to only call if you genuinely want a part and are able to work when asked, we don't want to put them off hiring us.

You only get one chance at life, so go for it (though you should call first to make sure they have a part for you!). Wish I had the cash.

11THHOUR

I called Background Players yesterday and spoke with Sasha. She said that all the "slots" for female extras were filled. Drat...

Anyhoo, I'm on stand-by in case someone drops out.

thanks for the luck Gwynethh and RiverGirl!
i didn't talk to Sasha, and if 11thHour heard that they are full-up on womenfolk... well... there goes that. i think i'll hear back today.
If i nabbed the final slot or something i will let everyone know (probably screaming from the rooftops in VT.. but i'll post too

).
anyways.. i will be on the edge of my seat until i hear!

Fingers, toes and everything else is crossed for you.

Even if all the spots are gone for this film they may hold onto your details for the next, so it was worth trying.

Or you could just pretend to be a bloke..

No more need for any male extras either it sounds like. I spoke to Judy Cook at Background Players this afternoon (she sounds really nice

) and she says they're all filled up. Apparently they're going to call all the fans back eventually, but they're in the process of moving.

There's always the next Joss-related project.
