    I would really love to participate in the film but unfortunately I am under 16. I searched for ages on the internet to find the information and was really disappointed to find out the age limit.
    I will be 14 at the end of April and was wondering if there is any places for extras that are under the age of 16?
    Please email me back as the auditions are in weymouth tomorrow.
    Thank you

    @Kate : don’t think so, they are in the middle of shooting it all, so all casting have been done I guess.

    Well (bigger) film productions often cast extras local where they shoot, so yes it happens regularly. I am not sure if it has happened before for films that Bill has been involved in, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did it with Love Actually too.
