RESEDA, Calif—With the final touches being put on his parody of the A Team, director David Lord is holding an open casting call on Thursday for a parody of Home Improvement.
The casting session takes place at 18215 Lassen Street in Northridge, from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. Talent interested in auditioning for roles should contact Lord at [email protected]
“I've always loved the show,” Lord said of the sitcom starring Tim Allen. “Tim Allen has impeccable comic timing. I've tried to capture the essence of the show and really bring fans the best of what they fell in love with, just like I would want to see.”
The script was written by DCypher, who also helped Lord create scripts for the A Team parody and the Tiger Woods parody he did late last year. The movie features Adam & Eve contract star Alexis Ford as the beloved Tool Helper Girl. The rest of the roles, including Tim, Al, Jill, and wise neighbor Wilson, are waiting to be filled by the right performers.
“We had a really nice turn out with the A Team casting and it definitely helped me flesh out the characters,” offers Lord. “It's a great way to meet new talent and see performers who I have shot over the years showcase their acting abilities. I remember last time we did this I was shocked that guys who I thought of as gonzo performers came through with genuine acting chops. You just never know.”
