Are you an Eastern European-looking man who wears a size 40 suit and a size 10 shoe?

If so, you could be cast as a military guard in “Untitled Pickle Project,” a Seth Rogen movie filming this weekend in Pittsburgh.

Based on a Simon Rich novella, the movie “stars Rogen as Herschel Greenbaum, a struggling laborer who immigrates to America in 1918 with dreams of building a better life for his beloved family,” according to Variety.

Working a factory job, he falls into a vat of pickles and is preserved in the brine for 100 years, emerging unchanged in present-day Brooklyn. He eventually finds his only surviving relative — great-grandson Ben Greenbaum (also played by Rogen) — and struggles to understand both him and the modern world.

Interested extras should email name, phone number, location, age, height, weight, suit and shoe size, along with neck, sleeve, waist and inseam measurements to mosserextras@gmail.com.
