A casting call has gone out for Scousers to be filmed in Liverpool

A casting call has gone out for Scousers to be part of a production filming in Liverpool - but you need some very specific skills in order to apply.

Casting Collective, a website which shares calls for actors and extras across the UK, is listing a new call for a Liverpool production.

The "major action feature" is set to begin filming in Liverpool in March of this year, and advertises a "good rate of pay".

But anyone hoping to apply and kick off their film career needs to be able to prove they can show off a specific set of skills.

The casting call requires extras with circus skills - including fire breathers, fire dancers and puppet operators.

You can click or tap here to view the casting call online and apply.

Men and women of all ethnicities are encouraged to apply, but they need to be over the age of 17 and having completed their GCSE's.

The online casting vacancy states: "You must live in North West England, as no additional fees will be added for travel. All applicants must have a valid National Insurance Number, be legally allowed to work in the UK and be over 16 years old."

This recent casting call is among a host of productions being filmed in Liverpool, as the city continues to provide the backdrop for exciting productions.

Pier Head was recently transformed to resemble New York for a five-part Channel Four five part called Boys.

Liverpool has also provided filming locations shows like Peaky Blinders and The Crown.
