AMC series "TURN: Washington Spies" schedules open casting call
There is an open casting call scheduled for Sunday December 18, 2016 for the hit AMC television series "TURN: Washington Spies". The show, going into the 4th season, needs Caucasian, African American and Native American men and women of all ages to play various characters from the American Revolutionary War. This open casting call is only for paid-up SAG-AFTRA members, however non-union talent can submit by email. Shooting will take place in Central Virginia and the greater Richmond, Virginia area from January to May, 2017.
"TURN: Washington Spies" is based on the Alexander Rose book "Washington's Spies", and takes place in Colonial New York, Long Island, and Connecticut, when a band of young soldiers and civilians come together to form America's first top secret spy ring, and help to turn the tide against the British. Along the way, they create the foundation of the espionage trade through trial and error, and great personal sacrifice. The show tells the unknown story of the Revolution that has never appeared in the history books - the murderous intelligence war, gunrunning and kidnapping, defectors and executioners. But "Turn" is also a spirited, touching account of friendship and trust, fear and betrayal, amid the dark and silent world of the spy.
Starring in "TURN: Washington Spies" is BAFTA Film Award winner Jamie Bell playing the role of New York farmer Abe Woodhull. Australian actress Meegan Warner plays Mary Woodhull; English actor Kevin McNally has been cast as Richard Woodhull; Australian Film Institute AACTA Award winner Daniel Henshall plays the role of Caleb Brewster; L.A. Outfest Grand Jury Award winner Seth Numrich plays Ben Talmadge; British raised actor Burn Gorman plays Major Hewlett; Screen Actors Guild Awards winner Heather Lind plays Anna Strong; Scottish actor Angus Macfadyen plays Robert Rogers; and JJ Feild plays John Andre.
Craig Silverstein serves as head writer and executive producer. Silverstein has executive produced and written such hit series as "Bones," "Terra Nova" and "Nikita". Barry Josephson is also executive producing "Turn" under the banner of his production company Josephson Entertainment. Josephson also exec produced "Bones", as well as such shows as "Fantasy Island" and "Secret Agent Man".
