Extras needed for “Losers Take All”

“Losers Take All” is seeking extras for the film’s final day of shooting here in Memphis Saturday September 11th.

They are seeking men and women, all ethnicities, ages 18-35 to fill the roles of followers of an 80’s punk band. Extras will receive free live music and comedians, free beer, and raffle prizes through out the day.  Some of the raffles include BB Kings and Sweet Grass gift certificates, a chance to pitch your movie idea to the Producers, and Grizzlies tickets.

In addition, “Losers Take All” is looking for unmodified cars from the 70s-80s (pre-’88). Please send photos and contact information to LTAcastingmemphis@gmail.com.

“Losers Take All” is directed by Alex Steyermark, director of "Prey For Rock & Roll" and "One Last Thing".  Steyermark will direct Kyle Gallner of recent "A Nightmare On Elm Street" fame as well as “Warehouse 13” star, Allison Scagliotti and Tania Raymonde of “LOST” in the upcoming film “Losers Take All”.  The cast also includes Alexia Rasmussen, Aaron Himelstein, Billy Kay, Peter Brensinger, and Adam Herschman.

“Losers Take All”, set in the world of mid-1980’s American independent rock music, follows a fictional punk/pop band "The Fingers" as they stumble, stagger and strum their way in what everyone thinks is the opposite direction of success--commercial or otherwise.  But they are in the right place at the right time and the mainstream is eager to embrace the D.I.Y. sounds of the underground. It’s a raucous love letter to an era when for most bands, life meant touring around the country in a cramped van, sleeping on stranger’s floors, selling your records after each show, and where fans were earned through powerful live shows at small clubs, reviews in ‘zines, and do-it-yourself promotions.

“Losers Take All” was written by Andrew Pope and Winn Coslick from a story by Roger Rawlings and Ed Bradin.
