A new casting opportunity connected to a veteran filmmaker has emerged in Wallingford, Connecticut, offering a unique and meaningful role centered on real-life military family experiences.

Veteran filmmaker Bill Teebo shared details of the project, noting that casting is being handled by Crooked Smile Agency. The agency, led by casting professional Donn Quijada, is actively seeking a female participant with a deeply personal connection to military service and loss.

The role is specifically intended for a woman who has lost a father, brother, or grandfather who served in the United States military. While preference is given to those whose loved one was lost in combat, the casting team has made clear that any genuine military-related loss will be respectfully considered.

This project stands out for its emphasis on authenticity. Rather than actors portraying scripted emotion, the production appears focused on real stories and lived experiences—something that aligns closely with the values of honoring service and sacrifice within the veteran community.

Casting is taking place on short notice, with filming scheduled imminently in Wallingford. Compensation for the selected participant is set at $100 per hour, reflecting both the professional nature of the production and the importance of the role.

This opportunity may resonate strongly with members of the Connecticut veteran community and their families, particularly those who wish to ensure their loved one’s story and sacrifice are represented with authenticity and respect.

Those who meet the criteria and are available for immediate participation are encouraged to reach out directly to Crooked Smile Agency for consideration. Strong interest is expected given the meaningful nature of the project and the limited timeframe.
