If you’re looking for your moment of fame, ABC’s show, “Women of the Movement,” is making its way to television and looking in Memphis for cast members. The show reflects the life and story of Emmitt Till, the 14-year-old Black child who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955 after being accused of offending a white woman with his alleged flirtations.

You’ll likely recognize some of the celebrity names who are producing and acting in this limited series: Will Smith, Jay-Z, Aaron Kaplan, Ray Fisher, Adrienne Warren, and Niecy Nash.

If you’re interested in auditioning to be in the series, keep reading for details.
