I am an 80′s chick who LOVED this movie! I really hope the remake is good.
As long as the article is being specific and naming the leads in the movie, one was omitted…David Tennant. He is not a total unknown in the U.S., and deserves equal mention.
I second the David Tennant mention… He’ll probably make the movie for me… Everything I’ve seen him in, he’s been awesome.
Is onlocationcasting.com the only website yuo can apply fro an extra? I have looked on many many websites, and OLC is the only website listed.
yeah, for this movie on location casting is handling all extras
