House of Cards?

Appears this is in Bel Air, maybe?

I doubt I could pass for 40 anymore.

This is discrimination.

That would be my guess. Would be very cool to be in HOC but I'm not military and not a sniper.

 

[DC-W]

HOC starts filing on 7/11, so the timing makes sense.

 

[Minuteman]

That's a polite way of saying no fat, old guys.

I'm out, and so are many of you. Plus I was never a sniper, designated marksman, nor combat MOS.

Imagist and ageist. Time for a class action lawsuit. I have One Billion Dollars in emotional trauma.

A gmail account wanting to know all the details of your military service? I'd be careful.

And sexist as well. Note they only want snipers, not snipettes. Or perhaps more correctly, sniping persons.

Yup. Sounds more like a fishing expedition. The blurb repeats the same thing three times.

 

[Blaster229]

Meh, I dunno. Looks legit enough.

[Minuteman]

Cost of my 'emotional trauma' is closer to $8. Which coincidentally is the approximate cost of a box of original krispy kreme donuts!

In all seriousness, does sound fishy, but the OP seems trustworthy, and says its from DragonUK casting website - whatever the heck that is, probably legit.

 

[Minuteman]

Good dig, thx. I was typing and making jokes, you were looking.

 

[K31]

Yup.

 

[new_shooter]

If I stayed at a Holiday Inn can I get acting credits?

 

[BeoBill]

I wonder how much his cut is?

 

[Art3]

This makes me think of that Mark Walburg movie where he was called in as an "advisor," then framed for the assassination he was supposed to prevent......be careful.

On a serious note, if it is truly legit, can you imagine the mountain of mall ninja responses they are going to get?

 

[K31]

Since they want this guy to look the part then I'm assuming this is more than a tech advisor position but it's got to be easier to teach an actor to play a sniper than to teach a sniper to be an actor.

 

[bpSchoch]

The Dragonuk site is a very popular legit casting website for the dc area. They guy make money on higher level actor profiles on his website. When I was looking for work I responded to many castings and got temporary work this way. Yes it's probably HOC which films either in the baltimore metro area on on sound stages in joppatowne.

If you fit, don't be afraid to submit. Based on my experience, I don't this is a consult job but one where you will be portraying the part.
