I sent off my application a few weeks back and awaitng a reply :O Itt might not come but Im glad I tried, especially after the long-shot of actually being sent a form :) I can't remember what the height restrictions were, the form just asked if you were willing to have your hair cut/coloured, if you are interested in working with masks and do you have any restrictions during feb/march/april. But the earthquake has been such a sad situation, so filming may be delayed for a while. Yeah I think it is probably too late to apply now… :( But don’t give up yet !

I'm fourteen years old, female, of average height, with no professional acting experience (but I like and am apparently good at acting). I also have very curly hair. What's the height restriction? Please – I want to do this more than anything else!

I sent a headshot of myself that I'd got when modelling at the end of last year to the casting director, and got an email back saying that she had forwarded it on to show another casting director :) It was a slim chance that she didnt delete it on recieving...i'll keep you all posted :) Just had some exciting news!

Also, for all you living outside of NZ (like myself) you have to have a special skill that no one in NZ has....sounds like a pretty slim chance :/ New Zealander are so lucky to have a chance to audition for the Hobbit and the Narnia films !

I've never acted professionally before but I'd love to be an extra for an experience. If I were asked to be an extra I would totally fly to NZ asap just for the opportunity! Jack, is there any other information I should know about to get cast as an extra in this film? Or is it hopeless because I'm an Australian? Hi,
