Want To Be a Movie Extra in New Matt Damon Film? | Filming in SF (Feb 9-19)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Want to be an extra in a new action thriller being filmed in San Francisco in February? It’s probably really boring and involves a lot of standing around, but a production company is looking for 2000+ extras in San Francisco for a few days of paid work – maybe this will make for good storytelling about the week you contracted a deadly virus (on screen, that is)

Most people who are hired will get 1 or 2 days of work.

About the Film: Contagion: Directed by Steven Soderbergh starring Matt Damon, Kate Winslet and Jude Law, CONTAGION is an action-thriller about an international team of doctors hired by the CDC to prevent the global outbreak of a deadly virus.
