Actress Kate Mara (The Martian, House of Cards) is starring in the upcoming film “Leavey” and casting directors are looking for kids to be in the movie that is filming in Atlanta, Georgia.
The movie is based on the true story of Leavey, a young Marine who turned her life around by enlisting in the K9 unit. There, she was teamed with an aggressive combat dog named Rex. The pair formed a special bond and were deployed to Iraq as an elite bomb sniffing team.
Together they served two tours of duty and completed more than 100 missions, saving innumerable lives. After she was wounded in combat, for which she received a Purple Heart, Megan was forced to retire. She spent the next five years waiting to adopt Rex, who remained on active duty. When he ended up on a list to be euthanized, Megan geared up for the fight of her life to bring the 11-year-old German shepherd home.
Taylor Made is looking for boys and girls who are 5-7 years old of any ethnicity for an upcoming Gymboree scene.
