Dream Job Alert: 'Chicago Fire' Is Looking for Extras to Appear on the Show
Chicago Fire is currently casting for "background roles."
All ages and genders are encouraged to apply.
The chosen actors will appear in photo shoots and other scenes that take place in Chicago, Illinois.
Hello, 911? We'd like to report an emergency: Chicago Fire is hiring extras and we don't have our headshots ready!
According to Backstage, the popular NBC drama is currently "seeking talent of all ages for background roles." This includes babies, teenagers, and adults—so literally anyone can apply.
If you're obsessed with One Chicago Wednesdays, this could be your chance to get off the couch and get in on the action as Severide saves someone's life, Casey and Brett try to define their relationship, and Chief Bowden barks orders at the rest of the Firehouse 51 crew.
The descriptions for some of the roles explain that the actors are just needed for a "photo shoot," while others don't offer any specific details. After everything that's happened on Chicago Fire over the last eight seasons—from turbulent relationships to heartbreaking deaths—it wouldn't be surprising if the extras have to be part of some dramatic scenes.
Given the name of the show, one can also assume that fire will be involved. But if you're fearful of flames, don't worry—the entire cast has been through real-life firefighter training.
Still interested? Rehearsals and production will take place in Chicago, Illinois in February, so you should apply ASAP! (See here for more details.)
