'Instant Family'
Mark Wahlberg will star in this Paramount comedy and will also serve as co-producer. The film is about a couple who adopts through the foster care system and finds themselves raising three wild kids, according to Variety.
What are they looking for?
Two children are needed, and if their color or cut is longer or different from what's listed, the child should be open to letting casting cut/color his or her hair:
- Hispanic, Asian or Caucasian female with dark brown/black hair, 42-46" tall and approximately 5 to 7 years old with an average build. Hair should straight and below the shoulders, with no bangs preferred. Height/size is more important than age.
- Hispanic, Asian or Caucasian male with dark brown/black hair, 56-59" tall and approximately 10-12 years old with an average build. Hair should be slightly longer or possibly bushy. Height/size is more important than age.
For each role, theater or set experience is a plus but isn't required. Children should have a good disposition, not be too shy, be able to follow directions and be well behaved. They should also be comfortable interacting with lead actors at times.
Kids should have open availability Mondays through Fridays during filming. They'll work a few days a week – sometimes more – and one chaperone must always accompany them.
