Atlanta Movie Casting: 'Avengers: Infinity War' Needs Vikings

ATLANTA, GA — Long hair? Beard? Surly attitude (or the ability to fake one)? You may be just what Marvel Studios is looking for.

"Avengers: Infinity War" is casting male and female extras to play Vikings in the latest installment of the superhero franchise filming in and around Atlanta now.

It sounds like a fun scene, too. According to the casting call, talent "must be comfortable with fake blood and possibly special effects makeup."

Here's what producers are looking for:

• Men and women, all ethnicities, who appear 18-50's
• Especially looking for men with long hair and beards
• Must be comfortable with fake blood and possibly special effects makeup
• Filing tentatively scheduled March 31-April 7 (excluding weekend). Must be available for all six days
• All fittings and filming will take place in Fayetteville
• Rate is $68 for 8 hours
• If interested, send and email to [email protected] with "VIKING" in the subject line. Include your name, phone number, sizes and current photos.

"Avengers: Infinity War" will star Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Josh Brolin as Thanos, Chris Pratt as Star Lord/Peter Quill, Sebastian Stan as Bucky, Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.

The Russos will direct from a screenplay by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.
