You might remember Shockya’s coverage of the upcoming teen Halloween-themed film called “Fun Size<\/a>“, in which a girl is forced to take her younger brother trick-or-treating, only to lose him and has to find him before her mother find out. Today, Paramount<\/a> issued a post on their Facebook page about a casting call. Here’s what they wrote:<\/p>\n

Seeking to cast the following for leading roles in the new Paramount Feature Film “FUN SIZE”. <\/strong><\/p>\n

No previous acting experience is necessary, but must have great energy and a wonderful sense of humor.<\/p>\n

ALBERT: <\/strong> 8 years old, with chubby cheeks.\u00a0 Albert is undeniably a strange but intriguing little boy, combining childlike ways (like love of anything sugar) with unnerving adult habits (he\u2019s unbeatable on the videogame “Aggravated Assault,” precocious, and is unflappable \u2013 even ingenious \u2013 in a crisis).\u00a0 He does not speak until the end of the movie.\u00a0 (LEAD)<\/p>\n

STUART: <\/strong> 16 years old. Born and raised in the United States. Stuart is of Asian, East Indian or Middle Eastern descent. Slight in build, Stuart is a kid who talks twice his size. Obsessed with sci-fi and comic books, he is the co-captain of the debate team with his best friend, Roosevelt.\u00a0 (LEAD)<\/p>\n
