Casting directors are looking for men, women and children of all ages. They are specifically looking for people with military training or first responders.

Potential extras must be comfortable to be clean shaven with a military haircut.

They must also be Canadian residents, and all children under 17 years of age must be accompanied by a guardian to the casting call, plus while on set.

More adults than children are required for the film.
