The upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming movie has a casting call out.
A Marvel Spider-Man reboot is in the works and now in production in the Atlanta area.
According to Production weekly and other film industry news sites, Spider-Man is filming under the working title “Summer of George” which is a reference to a “Seinfeld” episode from 1997. Tammy Smith Casting (The casting director for “Guardians of the Galaxy“) has released a casting notice for “Summer of George,” (which is the new Spider-Man working title.) Right now they are seeking Atlanta locals to work as paid background actors for a high school scene. They want to cast teens ages 15 to 17 as well as young looking adults ages 18 to 25.
You gotta wonder about that Seinfeld episode…. In the Seinfeld show, George gets a severance check from New York Yankees and decides to take full advantage of his time off by doing nothing. The film’s plot has been kept under wraps and the IMDB page is missing the usual logline for a film, so… gotta wonder if spidey starts off being a couch potato.
What we do know about the film is the main cast. Tom Holland will be playing Peter Parker / Spider-Man. Iron Man seems to be in this one as well because Robert Downey Jr. is cast as Tony Stark / Iron Man. Marisa Tomei will be playing Aunt May. Also in the upcoming film is Zendaya (of Disney Channel fame and current series K.C. Undercover.) Spidey is making an appearance in the new Captain America film, which, by the way also filmed in Atlanta.
After the Captain America intro, Spidey will be hitting it solo in a new line of Spider-Man movies (hopefully). “Spider-Man: Homecoming” will be hitting the theaters on July 7th, 2017.

If you fit the bill, see the notice below. If not, you may still get your chance as many more casting notices should be coming up. The film begins production next month in the ATL.
