While casting calls have been going on since late last year, we’ve just received an email from Discovery’s LA-based casting director for The Assailant to ask if we’d help spread the word that they’re still looking for contestants.
If you haven’t yet heard of The Assailant’s premise, it’s going to pit four physically fit contestants an episode in elite military mission re-enactments to see who will come out victorious. They’re looking for Navy SEALs, Marines, SWAT, FBI, Firefighters, Police Officers, Rescue Workers, stuntmen/women and anyone who thinks that they have what it takes to survive the adventure.
Interested applicants (over the age of 18) that have always dreamed of being Jason Bourne can apply here.
While this is obviously a TV show and not how things would go down in real life, it’s great to see them looking for physically fit individuals. I’ve often had a problem with all those out there giving advice and showing what they know, when it’s obvious they couldn’t physically save themselves if their life depended on it.
Here’s to all the athlete’s out there defending our freedom!
