Child Acting AuditionsKids have the opportunity of a lifetime. The chance to star in a Steven Spielberg film is here! Child acting auditions are being held in several cities to find the next child stars to be in the movie. The kids movie casting call is for the upcoming project “The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara”. Casting directors are searching for boys ages 6 to 9 years old to play some pretty hefty roles. The upcoming flick is based on a true story. In addition to an in-person casting call, producers are accepting self-taped submissions.About “The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara”Steven Spielberg is making a film about the true story of EDGARDO MORTARA – a 6 year old Jewish boy from Bologna who was reported to have been secretly baptized by a maid, and was deemed by the Catholic church therefore to be Christian. Pope Pius IX (to be played by Mark Rylance) decreed that the boy could not remain with his Jewish family. He was seized by the Papal State and taken to the Vatican where his indoctrination into Catholicism began. This was a cause célèbre of mid-nineteenth century European politics and the domestic and international outrage against the pontifical state’s actions may have contributed to its downfall amid the unification of Italy. This is an incredible story of real historical relevance. What They Are Looking ForEDGARDO — BOY age 6-9 to play 6 years old. This is a unique and very challenging part for a truly special boy. The story deals with the complexity of an extremely intelligent and gifted child’s situation – his desire to return to his family and the faith of his ancestors, pitted against his ability to learn the Catechism and engage with the Pope on a level far beyond his years. HE SHOULD APPEAR TO BE A JEWISH ITALIAN child. We are not looking for any kind of Italian accent.
