Do you think you have what it takes to be the next Zac Efron or Corbin Bleu? Disney is searching for their next big male star and it just might be you!

On Monday, February 16th in Los Angeles, Disney is holding an open casting call for males ages 12-17. They want you to have some acting and athletic abilities.

The auditions are being conducted by producers of the Disney Channel and Disney XD. If you plan on going, you need to show up at The Music Center in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, 135 N. Grand Avenue. Sign-in begins at 10:00 am sharp and the auditions will begin at 10:30 am. A parent or legal guardian must accompany you to the audition.

So, what might they ask you to do at the audition? You may be asked to show them a prepared one-minute or less comedic monologue or short performance that demonstrates their talent and skills.

Many current Disney Stars like David Lambert and Demi Lovato were discovered at open casting calls. If you live in or near the Los Angeles area, this could be your chance!

Good luck!!

Have you ever heard of the 1982 classic “Tron”? I’ve personally never seen it. Here’s a short synopsis of the original movie:

“Hacker/arcade owner Kevin Flynn who is digitally broken down into a data stream by a villainous software pirate known as the Master Control and reconstituted into the internal, 3-D graphical world of computers. It is there, in the ultimate blazingly colorful, geometrically intense landscapes of cyberspace, that Flynn joins forces with Tron to outmaneuver the Master Control program that holds them captive in the equivalent of a gigantic, infinitely challenging computer game.”

Walt Disney Studios is in the process of making a sequel called “Tron 2: The Grid”. The movie is in pre-production and the studio is screen testing actors and actresses. Filming begins in April 2009 and is set to open sometime in 2011.

For casting information, see Disney Casting.

The new Disney network, Disney XD, is launching in February and Acting Info has some news about a new live-action pilot that has been green-lighted. It’s called “I’m With The Band” and, as you can tell from the title, it’s about a band. lol
