NBC’s upcoming The Rockford Files reboot pilot is now casting paid featured background actors in Canton, Georgia. Filming is expected to take place this spring, and local talent has the chance to work on prison-scene background roles for the network pilot.
Casting is being handled by Hylton Casting, and all roles will be photo selected by the Director, so strong submissions matter.

NBC Pilot – The Rockford Files
Now Casting: Featured Background Roles (Men, All Ethnicities, Ages 20+)
Inmates – tough, hardened types (tattoos, scars, rugged looks welcome)
Big Carl’s Goons – large/muscular, stocky, or lean/wiry builds
