Paid extras needed for Amazon MGM movie filming in Pittsburgh this summer
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (WTAJ) — Have you ever wanted to be in a movie? Well, now might be your chance, as Amazon MGM is looking for extras to be in 'How to Rob A Bank' this summer. 'How to Rob A Bank' will film in Pittsburgh and the surrounding area from mid-June to August. Extras are needed to fill various roles, from bank customers to sports fans and even S.W.A.T. or FBI agents. It's important to note that all roles are non-speaking. According to the casting call, filming takes place 10-14 hours a day (sometimes shorter), so you must have full-day availability for the days you're hired for. Filming is mostly Monday through Friday, and anyone under 18 will adhere to shorter days based on child labor laws.'How to Rob A Bank' is an action-comedy that features Nicholas Hoult (X-Men franchise, Superman), Zoe Kravitz, Anna Sawai, Pete Davidson and Rhenzt Feliz. The film is slated for a September 2026 release. For more information and to apply, click here. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

George Clooney: ‘Everybody worries' about being targeted by Trump
George Clooney, a vocal critic of President Trump, says fears of being targeted by the administration are widespread. 'Everybody worries about it,' Clooney told Anderson Cooper in a Wednesday interview on CNN. 'But if you spend your life worrying about things, then you won't do things,' the 'Good Night, and Good Luck' actor said. 'Like everybody, we have a family and we have a life and we try to live and do the things as the best example for our kids,' the Academy Award winner, who's married to human rights attorney Amal Clooney, told the 'Anderson Cooper 360' host. 'I want to be able to look at my kids in the eye and say where we stood and what we did at certain times in history. And I have no problem with that,' said Clooney, one of Hollywood's most prominent Democratic supporters. Last year, Clooney famously penned a New York Times op-ed calling for then-President Biden to abandon his 2024 reelection campaign, citing the commander in chief's age. Biden withdrew from the race weeks later and Clooney backed then-Vice President Kamala Harris's White House bid. In the interview with Cooper, Clooney expressed skepticism when asked if 'Trumpism lasts beyond this term.' 'I don't think so. I think it'd be very hard to do it,' Clooney, 64, replied. 'Remember this: Donald Trump is a celebrity. That's what he is. I mean, he has a star on Hollywood Boulevard,' he said of the former 'Celebrity Apprentice' host, who's responded to Clooney's criticism in the past by calling him a 'second rate movie star.' 'I don't have a star. I'm not lobbying for one, I'm just saying,' Clooney added with a grin. 'He's a celebrity, and he's the president [of the] United States, and so he has been elected. Duly elected — fair deal. I'm not complaining about that. That's how it works. That's how this democracy works,' Clooney continued. 'But he's also a celebrity, and he is charming. And to the people who like him, they think he's funny — to a great many others, they don't,' he said of Trump. 'So when [Trump] is finished — and he will be finished — they're going to have to go looking for someone who can deliver the message that he delivered with the same kind of charisma, and they don't have that.'
