The upcoming feature film Men In Black III is currently in pre-production and the extras casting director is holding an open casting call for background performers to appear in the film. Sony Pictures Inc., has announced that the film will be released in 3D on May 25, 2012.
Men In Black III will be directed and co-produced by Primetime Emmy Award winning director Barry Sonnenfeld, who has helmed such film as Get Shorty, Wild Wild West, and of course the first two installments of Men In Black. Steven Spielberg is also on board to co-produce with Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald of the Los Angeles based Parkes/MacDonald Productions. Etan Cohen has penned the script, and rumors of him being replaced by David Koepp are untrue, although Koepp did some brief work on the script. Cohen's writing credits include Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, and Tropic Thunder.

20th Century Fox open casting call for feature film 'The Sitter' seeking kids 9-12 years
Michael De Luca Productions and Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation are currently in pre-production on the feature film "The Sitter", which tells the story about a college student on suspension who is coaxed into babysitting the kids next door, though he is fully unprepared for the wild night ahead of him.
The film is also being co-produced by Rough House Pictures. "The Sitter" director David Gordon Green launched Rough House Pictures with writer-director Jody Hill, writer-actor Danny McBride, and production executive Matt Reilly, who left his position at Warner Bros. as VP of production. Hill, Green and McBride all went to the North Carolina School of the Arts and lived on the same dorm floor during their first year.
20th Century Fox is conducting and open casting call for "The Sitter" seeking three kids, one female ages 9-13, one male age 12, and one male ages 9-11.
Open Casting Call Details
STORY LINE: Recently suspended from college, directionless screw-up is forced to move back home with his single mom and take a job babysitting the next door neighbors – three of the most problematic kids on the planet. That’s just the beginning of his problems as his evening rapidly devolves into a cluster-you-know-what of massive proportions, with both the cops and a gang of irate drug dealers hot on his trail…
BLITHE: Female, 9 – 13. Blithe is a tornado of teenage drama. She’s sassy, moody, and obsessed with popularity. She watches too much TV and is like a walking, talking, Jerry Springer episode. But underneath that facade she is like any other young girl: seeking friends.
SLATER: Male, 12. Slater is a shy, awkward, polite kid, but he’s overcome with anxiety. His friends at school are beginning to think he’s being weird and lame but Slater has secrets he’s just beginning to share.
RODRIGO: Male, 9 – 11. Rodrigo is the adopted Latino sibling to Slater and Blithe. He despises suburban life and his cowardly siblings. What he lacks in suburban upbringing he makes up for in smarts and guile. A natural troublemaker but he gets away with everything, and does it all with a cool, dangerous grin.
