Marty Siu Casting Wilmington, NC Extras for “BOATLIFT 9/11”

Marty Siu Casting is seeking background actors in Wilmington, North Carolina, for the short film “BOATLIFT 9/11.” This powerful project honors the tugboat captains and maritime workers who helped rescue nearly half a million people during the events of September 11, 2001.

The film is scheduled to air on September 11 to mark the 25th anniversary of the tragic attacks. This project is deeply personal to the producer, who lost half of her crew on that day, making this story one of remembrance, courage, and community.
