Are you the Girl of James Cameron's Dreams? Be the Lead in BATTLE ANGEL ALITA!!!

Hey folks, Harry here... It's a gigantic casting call... Cameron wants a fresh face to be Alita - and I know there's a lot of you gals out there that dream of being an Anime Gal, well, here's your chance to be 100% Live-Action Anime Gal heaven!!! Read below and follow those dreams...

Hi Harry, I'm a part-time stage actor in Boston and our local resources for auditions just got the following very interesting notice. I'm imagining another let's-find-an-unkown-for-Scarlett O'Hara type search, or at least something ending up with another Jessica Alba:

JAMES CAMERON SEEKS NEW TALENT FOR A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE

Mali Finn Casting (Titanic, The Matrix, 8 Mile) is looking for fresh faces to star in a James Cameron film that begins principal photography Spring 2006.

No prior film experience necessary. However, voice, movement, and actor training are imperative.

SEEKING: FEMALE LEAD. 16-mid 20s. Any ethnicity, including Caucasian.

She moves and behaves with confidence and a sense of nobility. Lithe as a cat. Athletic and agile, she is a warrior. Graceful movement and an ear for languages and dialects are essential.

Sound like you? Interested in starring in a Hollywood feature film?

Visit our website and fill out an application: MaliFinnCasting.Com

Please include two recent snapshots or Polaroids (one close up / one full body shot). Also include the following information on the back of each photo: NAME ? CONTACT # - HEIGHT ? WEIGHT ? D.O.B.

Mail completed application and photos to:

Mali Finn Casting

8284 Santa Monica Blvd

W. Hollywood, CA 90046

Attn: UNTITLED PROJECT

APPLICATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY DEC. 19, 2005

The casting agency's website basically has the same info.
