Texas casting director, Sarah Dowling, has been looking for extras for the movie Seven Days in Utopia, which stars Robert Duvall and Lucas Black.  To inquire if you can still serve as an extra or can support this redemptive film in any way, call the casting office at (830) 965-6601 or reach the staff by e-mail at UtopiaExtras@gmail.com. 

The screenplay is based on David Cook's Seven Days in Utopia. The story is about a golfer, who has a strained relationship with his father and frustrations with a Texas tournament. After driving through Texas, he is lost literally and figuratively. At a fork in the road, he turns towards Utopia, where he meets a man who will change his life. It is a story about life, golf, and faith.
  
Veteran actor, director Robert Duvall ( who has an Academy Award, two Emmy Awards, and four Golden Globe Awards) has been a long-time Texas favorite. Texas talent enjoyed working with him in Secondhand Lions. Duvall performed in To Kill a Mockingbird and Tender Mercies, both written by Texas playwright, Horton Foote. (Both of these movies were awarded Oscars for Best Screenplay.) Duvall played a former Texas Ranger, Augustus McCrae, in the TV miniseries Lonesome Dove. He watched a special screening of his television film Broken Trail with President George W. Bush, former Texas governor, at the White House.
