The Best of Us, a six-episode limited series for Paramount+, is casting male background actors to portray first responders at a disaster site. Fittings take place in Brooklyn through Friday, October 23. Shoot days are Monday October 26, Tuesday October 27, Thursday October 29, and Monday November 2 — these days are a matched set and must all be available.
Performers may be covered in artificial dust and ash made from cellulose, PVA, and vegetable starch applied to the body and face. The fitting pays $46.75 for two and a half hours. Shoot days pay $187 for 10 hours (non-union rate), plus a makeup bump when dust and ash are applied.
If you have real first-responder or military experience, include that in your submission. Casting is handled by Grant Wilfley Casting.
