Feature Film Titled “Darkest Minds” Casting in Cleveland

A feature film is now casting extras to play soldiers and nurses in Cleveland, Ohio.  Filming will begin in April and continue throughout the summer in Cleveland and Chicago.  Several of the films opening scenes will be filmed in Northeast Ohio.

About

Darkest Minds is based on the young adult trilogy written by Alexandra Bracken. The film takes place soon after a pandemic kills most of the children and teenagers in the United States. When some survivors develop superpowers, they are deemed too dangerous for society.  They are taken from their families and placed inside camps so that they cannot use their abilities.  The books are very comparable to The Hunger Games series and they cater to the same type of audience.

In fact, Hunger Games co-star Amandla Stenberg was recently cast as the star in Darkest Minds.  Stenberg will play 16-year-old Ruby Daly, a teenager with telekinetic powers who escapes and joins a group of kids, also on the run from the government.  This film will be the first out of three as the director looks to adapt all three books into big budget movies.
