Cinemax’s hit TV series ‘The Knick’ is now casting extras to appear in Season 2 while it is filming in New York City.
The Knick centers around New York City in the 1900s, and the Knickerbocker Hospital. The hospital operates with innovative surgeons, nurses and staff who have to overcome the limitations of the then-current medical understanding and practice, to prevent staggeringly high mortality rates. Dr. John Thackery, the newly appointed leader of the surgery staff, battles his cocaine and opium addictions with his ambition for medical discovery and his reputation among his peers. Dr. Algernon Edwards, a Harvard-educated, European-trained black surgeon, must fight for respect within the all-white populated hospital, as well as the racially-charged city. While literally struggling to keep the lights on, the hospital attempts to attract a wealthy clientele, without sacrificing quality care. On July 10, 2014, Cinemax renewed The Knick for a ten-episode second season. Grant Wilfley Casting is currently casting background extras and actors to work on the second season of The Knick. Carmen Cuba Casting is the principal casting director for The Knick. To audition for an extra role on The Knick, check out the latest casting call details below:
