Star Wars: Episode VII Open Auditions Have Begun in the U.S.!

While not explicitly named as such, we've heard about Disney's London open auditions for Star Wars: Episode VII getting underway. Well, the U.S. casting alert has gone out and it's pretty specific. Read on to see when and where you can take your shot!




Star Wars: Episode VII has begun the search for two of it's leads here in the United States as of today. As Nailbiter's London Open Call article described here in greater detail:

the parts they're looking to fill are :

Rachel: (Lead) to play 17-18 years old, must be beautiful, smart, athletic, open to all ethnicities (including bi- and multi-racial).

And

Thomas (Lead): Male, 19-23, All Ethnicities

to play 19-23 years old, must be handsome, smart, athletic.


As they don't intend on spending the next year casting, it's not surprising they're avoiding New York and Los Angeles. And while today's audition in Bloomington MN has come and gone, fans who fancy a road trip and a shot at the dream can audition in any of these locations:

November 10: St. Louis, MO
November 14: Chicago, IL
November 17: Troy, MI
November 22: Austin, TX
November 24: Nashville, TN
