Want to work on one of the History Channel’s most popular shows? Their original series “Vikings” has released a new casting call for actors! They are seeking Arabic speaking mean for upcoming scenes that will be filming for the new season. According to The History Channel, “The original series Vikings transports us to the brutal and mysterious world of Ragnar Lothbrok (played by Travis Fimmel), a Viking warrior and farmer who yearns to explore and raid the distant shores across the ocean. In the first season, his ambition puts him at odds with local chieftain Earl Haraldson, who insists on sending his raiders to the impoverished east rather than the uncharted west. When Ragnar teams up with his boat builder friend Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard) to craft a new generation of intrepid ships capable of conquering the rough northern seas, the stage is set for conflict.

But for all its warfare and bloodshed, Vikings is also a story of family and brotherhood, capturing the love and affection between Ragnar and his wife, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick), a respected warrior in her own right. It is the tale of Ragnar’s brother Rollo (Clive Standen), a fierce fighter who simmers with jealously; of Earl Haraldson’s wife Siggy (Jessalyn Gilsig), a dutiful beauty who may be less than loyal; and of the monk Athelstan (George Blagden), whose Christian morals clash with the Vikings’ pagan society. As ambition and innovation rattle a civilization, these characters will be put to the test—and their way of life will never be the same again.”

Producers are now casting Middle Eastern or North African males to be background actors on the show. They are seeking males who speak Arabic. Because the series is filming in Ireland, all actors who apply must be Ireland residents. People with any level experience is helpful for the shoot. Actors who would like to be considered should have good availability.

Interested actors can apply for consideration by emailing vikingextras@gmail.com. You should include your Name, Number, CV/Relevant information and attach a recent PHOTO of yourself. All submissions should have MALE ARABIC SPEAKING ACTORS in the subject bar. The casting team will ONLY reply to those that are successful. If you are interested or know anyone else that may fit the criteria, feel free to share it!
