Open Auditions Success

Thursday 23 July 2009

Bananafish Management started the search for the chance to star alongside Jamie Carragher and his team mates in a new Liverpool-made film.

Lookalikes also tried out for the movie, Fifteen Minutes That Shook The World, by acclaimed playwright Dave Kirby.

The short film, which is expected to feature Carragher, Steven Gerrard and Didi Hamann in cameo roles, is hoped to be premiered later this year.

The movie centres around the inspiration behind Liverpool's 2005 Champions League win in Istanbul.

Writer Dave Kirby said: “Every interview was about what inspired them to come back from three goals down at half-time.  Paul [Flanagan] and I were talking about different scenarios. We were watching Liverpool impersonator Darren Farley and we thought it would be great if he had a script of the team arguing in the dressing room. It prompted us to make this film.”

Dave auditioned the actors with Joanna Jones of Bananafish Managment along with Illy (Director) and Paul Flanagan (Executive Producer of Miracle Productions).

The search continues as Bananafish Management are still looking for lookalikes for Harry Kewell, Djimi Traore, Djibril Cisse, Milan Baros and Igor Biscan.  If you feel you, or someone you know could be right for the part, please email info@bananafish.co.uk along with a photograph
