Casting directors are now taking submissions for upcoming scenes filming in Biloxi, Mississippi in the Tiffany Haddish film, “The Card Counter.” They’re searching for actors who have great card handling skills. Specific casting neds call for hand doubles who enjoy shuffling & manipulating the cards, getting fancy with tricks, and more!
The film, written and directed by Schrader, follows William Tell (Isaac), a gambler and former serviceman who sets out to reform a young man seeking revenge on a mutual enemy from their past. Tell just wants to play cards. His spartan existence on the casino trail is shattered when he is approached by Cirk, a vulnerable and angry young man seeking help to execute his plan for revenge on a military colonel. Tell sees a chance at redemption through his relationship with Cirk. Gaining backing from mysterious gambling financier La Linda, Tell takes Cirk with him on the road, going from casino to casino until the unlikely trio set their sights on winning the World Series of poker in Las Vegas. But keeping Cirk on the straight-and-narrow proves impossible, dragging Tell back into the darkness of his past.
