Almost as quickly as a movie itself, the casting call to be a part of one ended. On Thursday before 2:30 p.m., Destination Door County released a casting call for local community volunteers to be extras in an upcoming movie to be filmed in the area. The details on the film are slim, except that Cherry Pie Film LLC is working with Destination Door County, Travel Wisconsin, and other Wisconsin-based partners to bring the movie to the area. Well before noon on Friday, Destination Door County closed the application after receiving hundreds of responses in less than 18 hours. Even after the recent success of Green and Gold in movie theaters, Jen Rogers from Destination Door County was still shocked by how quickly they filled up.

Rogers adds that they will keep adding details to their movie website, and if you signed up to be an extra, check your email in the coming weeks. While the new film likely will not be released until the second half of the year, you will have more opportunities to see Door County’s latest cameo on a small screen near you. After a five-week run in theaters, Green and Gold will be available for purchase on streaming platforms by April 1st.
