Open Casting Calls 20th Century Fox Television series "Glee"

Online Submissions Will Be Accepted

The executive producers of Glee will begin a nationwide casting search this February to fill three new roles that will be added to the show's second season. Auditions will be open to professional and amateur individuals between the ages of 16-26. All hopefuls will be able to submit auditions online. Additional details to be announced soon.

Fox's hugely popular high school musical, "Glee" is going back into production and casting is now underway for actors, dancers, and extras. The series has received critical acclaim and is nominated for Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe Awards for it's first season.

Glee features five to eight production numbers per episode. Once the producer (Ryan Murphy) selects a song, rights are cleared with its publishers by music supervisor P.J. Bloom, and music producer Adam Anders rearranges it for the Glee cast. Numbers are pre-recorded by the cast, while choreographer Zach Woodlee constructs the accompanying dance moves, which are then taught to the cast and filmed. Studio recordings of tracks are then made. The process begins six to eight weeks before each episode is filmed, and can end as late as the day before filming begins. Each episode costs at least $3 million to produce, and can take up to 10 days to film as a result of the elaborate choreography.

New episodes of Glee will begin airing April 13, 2010.

Production Companies:
