Auditions and Casting Calls for CBS Series "Under The Dome"

The series is set in the not too distant future and centers on residents in the small town of Chester's Mill, Maine who find themselves cut off from the world by a mysterious barrier that surrounds the town. Big Jim Rennie is the ruthless town councilman, who's son Junior is holding local waitress Angie against her will thinking he is protecting her. Joe is Angie's brother who meets Army veteran Barbie, a man on an enigmatic mission in town. Deputy Linda Everett is engaged to a firefighter who is stuck on the outside of the dome. Phil Bushey and Dodee Wheeler run the local radio station, and hear a terrifying intangible voice on a rogue frequency. The sound cuts out and they then hear a military frequency about a potentially dangerous plan being considered by military forces outside the dome.

Starring in "Under The Dome" is Young Artist Awards nominee Britt Robertson as the waitress and medical center volunteer Angie McClatchey; three-time Young Artist Awards winner Colin Ford as Angie's Brother Joe; newcomer Alexander Koch is playing Big Jim's smart but deeply disturbed son Junior Rennie; model and actress Natalie Martinez has been cast as Deputy Linda Everett; Nicholas Srong portrays the local radio station DJ Phil Bushey, an indie rock fan who's a charismatic figure with a dark secret; and Jolene Purdy plays Dodee Wheeler, the brainy radio engineer at the station.
