Megamonolith Pictures is holding an open casting call for TITANIC 2: MERMAID SAVIORS, a sequel to the Academy Award-winning 1997 blockbuster TITANIC, on July 1st and 2nd. The film begins moments after the sinking of the Titanic. All who have drowned are brought back to life by a futuristic race of mermaids, called the Mantocks, who welcome the humans to their underwater paradise. Soon after, JACK DAWSON is elected king of the underwater humans. DAWSON requests that all humans be returned above water, a request that is denied by KING MANTROCK. The humans are slowly brainwashed into worshiping their mermaid saviors. Meanwhile, the sunken TITANIC has become a haunted underwater wasteland inhabited by RAGGARO and his band of mermaid pirates. Will the humans ever free themselves from their mermaid slavery? Will the mermaid pirates wage war on Mantock?

All actors seeking consideration must reply to this post with:

1.) A headshot
2.) A few short paragraphs on why they're qualified for MERMAID SAVIORS.

Actors with mermaid and under water acting experience are highly desirable.

Mermaid pirates. Words fail me at this point.

How many actors have "Mermaid and under water acting experience?" Not that that's the most messed up part of this, or anything... :^)

These companies that make the SyFy original movies are so blatantly incompetant, why do they keep trying to get so ambitious like this? Tell a SIMPLE story and you might have more time for, I don't know, characterization, not having gaping plot holes, etc. And if your budget isn't going into many locations and sets, you don't waste money on washed up "name" actors who don't give a shit about your stupid movie and won't give a good perfomance, you can have more money for effects shots so you don't have to keep reusing them.
