MTV 'Real World' Casting Call Coming To Chicago

CHICAGO — MTV is partnering with Facebook to relaunch its seminal reality series "The Real World." And casting directors will be coming to Chicago next month as part of their search for seven strangers who will have their lives taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite and … well, you know the rest.

The Chicago casting call will be from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Printers Row Bar Louie, 47 W. Polk St. All applicants must be at least 21 by and have a copy of a photo ID with birth date on it.

Potential cast members are encouraged to complete a short bio online in order to receive a scheduled appointment time at the casting call and a link to an application. Individuals don't have to apply online, but waiting in line during the open call could be significantly longer.

Along with a photo ID, applicants must also bring:

• recent candid photos to leave with casting directors
• a completed application if applying online

Other casting calls are being held in Atlanta and Miami. MTV hasn't said where its newest "Real World" season will be located. The series began in New York City in the mid-1990s, and it had two seasons in Chicago during its original run.

Go to the casting page for "The Real World" to apply online, and go to the show's casting call Facebook page for more details.
