Heery Casting has listed a new casting call for Transformers the Movie 2. This one is kind of out of left field to. The casting call is as follows:

Little Person needed for "Transformers 2"
We are looking for a Male Little Person , age 30-65, any ethnicity, for a featured role in the Dreamworks production of "Transformers 2."
Shooting will be in the Philadelphia area in the month of June.
This is a featured role, we will see both SAG and non-SAG for this. (We will waiver for this)

If interested and available, please send a CANDID picture of yourself (not a headshot) to:
tr2philadelphia@gmail.com
Please attach the picture as a .jpg and put "Little person" in the subject line.

No Phone calls please.
May 30 2008


Any ideas who this character could be? We'd love to hear them.

Ok, this almost guarantees that the level of humour for TF2 will probably be even below what it was for TF1.

I feel bad for all the little people actors out there, the only roles they can ever get in Hollywood call for "midget jokes" so that a bunch of ignorant, feeble-minded morons can laugh at people who look different than they do.

You're all wrong. They're starting the pretender series. Those are the "people" inside the "shells"

That was the first thing that came to my mind as well seeing the level of humor in the last film.

And by many of the comments posted so far, the spirit of ignorance and intolerance is alive and well at Seibertron.com.

These that I quoted being among the highest.
