One of the most talked about stories of the past 25 years is being brought to the big screen and some of the biggest talents in film today have signed on to tell this compelling tale. Devil’s Knot starring Academy Award Winner Reese Witherspoon is set to begin filming shortly and casting calls will soon be held for a variety of roles. This is your chance to work with some of the most gifted performers in the entertainment industry and shed light on a very important story in American history.
Devil’s Knot will tell the true story of the riveting case of The West Memphis Three, a group of three men who were tried and convicted as teenagers of the murders of three young boys in West Memphis, Arkansas. The men were convicted in 1994 amidst growing doubts of their guilt. For the following 17 years several strong pushes for appeal were made and several celebrities and musicians used their own money and held benefits to raise money for their legal funds believing the men to be innocent. There were also a number of documentaries made on the subject, each revealing new evidence that further suggested the innocence of the accused. Finally on August 19, 2011 the men were released from prison and justice, as much as it could be was served. In addition to the amazing Ms. Witherspoon the project will also feature the talents of such luminaries as Academy Award Winner Colin Firth, Academy Award Nominee Amy Ryan, Bruce Greenwood, Mireille Enos along with many others. This is a fascinating page in our recent history and will surly be not only a very important film document but also a lock to be included in awards season discussion. Movies as powerful and important as this do not come around often and neither does the opportunity to work with the amazing talent that has been assemble for this production. Auditions for several roles in Devil’s Knot are happening soon. If you are interested in submitting yourself you can send your personal information here devilsknotextras@gmail.com. More details on this project will be coming soon so stay tuned and leave a comment for us below and tell us why you should be cast in Devil’s Knot.

I would love to be am extra in Devil's knot because I am from memphis and also I am wanting to start atarring in movies, but I dont know how or where to start. I am kind of a long shot because I have only done a few skits for my school, as well as taken a drama class and modeled, but I think I could be great at something like this. I have not done more acting things due to I am very athletic and do multiple sports, but like I said I have done a few skits and learned about drama.

I should def. be cast in Devils Knot because I adore the story . I should also be cast because I am self motivated , enjoy new experiences, have a strong work ethic , and being a Model , I Love the Cam !
I've always liked suspense movies, mostly because they always leave me wanting for more trying to figure out what will happen next. I like these type of movies like Devil's knot because It's cool to kind of be a badass in a movie as to trying to figure out a case, and trying to put the puzzle together. I am up for anything, and I love acting. It's always been something I would like to do. Being famous is everybody's dream. I'm not the first, but I am one of the many. I hope I can become part of this production.

m 25 year old A.A. med. complexion female 5'5 , brown hair and eyes, a average build , can pass for (18-25), I have as many people probably have, gone through more than my share of struggles. At a young age I sought out acting as a way to temp. escape my reality of life. Since then I have found solidarity in acting. Being able to be myself, while mysteriously being someone else. I love the possibility of eluding life, while still being able to be myself, helping others and doing something that I love to do all in one. I am currently training with Page Parkes in my hometown of Houston,Texas. I recently became more able in life than ever before to focus on my life goal of not just succeeding in college but also the opportunity of pursuing my goal in this career field.
I am dedicated and willing to put in the work it takes to accomplish my goals. I believe I have what it takes. I follow direction while not being a follower, and I take direction and criticism and apply it
Iam very interested Iam a model and aspiring actress with J'Adore modelsinc and onesourcetalent agency….I have some experience in acting from local plays and music videos and some acting classes…..my ability to ajust into a character is my best skill my love for old black and white movies has given me the best tools ever………Katherine Hepburn said it best (don't act just talk)!!!!!!!

My name is Berna: I’ve recently relocated to Georgia. I’m single, well over 55 years old and have a youth appearance. With this trait, I can mix into any character from young to senior – bringing style and fashion at-a-glance. Berna has an air of charm. She is a very expressive person which enhances her skills to perform on screen or stage arena. She possesses poise and alluring qualities that gives life to her character, as an accomplished model and graduate of the Barbizon School of Beauty. Also, she’s fulfilled the roles of being a mom, a sister, a BFF, a mistress, a career person and caregiver, enabling her to embrace their (acting) characters.
Additionally, Berna is an inspiring author. Books created are: The Big "C": A Weapon of Death and The Big "C": A Weapon of Death II (Bilingual Edition). Even though there is no prior acting experience, she presently attends Workshops at Actors' Breakthrough – under the leadership of (the "talented” Actor) Greg Allen Williams. As a new face in the field, she will add an array of spice to the industry.
Berna is a team-player, dependable, energetic, outgoing, reliable self-motivated and humorous. She has a professional attitude and is very flexible – being available as long as required. She is truly dynamic and one to have on any scene. Having an opportunity to be a part of this circle will fulfill a lifetime passion.
