Actors and actresses in their prime (m/f/d) to play “grandparents” in a promotional video

We’re looking for authentic performers to star in a promotional video and create social media content for an innovative premium bike trailer.

Ideally, you’ll apply as a real family unit. It doesn’t necessarily have to be the entire extended family: You can apply specifically as a family (two parents + two children) OR as a couple of grandparents. Individual applications for the respective roles are also possible; we’ll then put the groups together as appropriate.

The story follows the cast members on an active day out: from a bike ride in nature, to play scenes on the rocks, to a relaxing finale with the grandparents by the pool. You should have a natural presence, enjoy being outdoors, and feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Shooting period: Late August / Early September 2026 Shooting location: Mettingen / Teutoburg Forest / surrounding area

We offer:

• A pleasant working atmosphere in a professional team

• Catering on set

• Fair compensation

• A diverse cast is expressly desired

Application: Please send us your applications (feel free to submit them together as a family or couple). We’d like to see:

• A short video: (a selfie video is fine), in which you briefly introduce yourselves so we can see and hear you “in action.”

• 2–3 recent photos (portrait & full-body shots of everyone)

• Short profile including age, height, and acting experience (if applicable)

We look forward to receiving your applications!

We are casting the following 6 roles, which will be flexibly combined based on the applications:

• 2x Grandparents (approx. 55–75 years old): For the quieter evening scenes.

• 2x Children (approx. 3–6 years old): Must fit in a bike trailer; cheerful and natural.

• 2x Parents (approx. 26–45 years old): Active; will ride a bike with a trailer in the film.

• No professional acting experience necessary, but naturalness in front of the camera is important.

• Pay includes meals.
