Big House Pictures and Contender Films are seeking actors for principal roles in their upcoming feature-length family film, ON THE WING.
The film will be shot August 2 to August 23 in/around Richmond, Virginia. Both Union & Non-Union actors are welcome to apply, however the producers will only consider talent that is local to the Richmond area as no travel expenses are being paid.
