Casting Company Searching D.C. For D.C. Types

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Calling all politicians, Hill staffers, aides, lobbyists and reporters. A Washington-based casting company is looking for you, or at least people who could play you in an original Netflix series.

Central Casting is hosting an open casting call Sunday for the upcoming Netflix political drama "House of Cards," starring actor Kevin Spacey.

Central Casting says it is looking for all kinds of Washington types, ages 21 to 60, at a casting call at The Hill Center in
southeast Washington from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Netflix is planning 28 episodes in its series, which will begin shooting in Baltimore and Washington beginning in April 2012.
