Want to be on TV? ‘Lioness’ season 3 is casting for Fort Worth filming
The third season of Taylor Sheridan’s spy series “Lioness” continues to cast extras ahead of a planned October shoot in Fort Worth.
“Lioness” follows CIA operative Joe (Zoe Saldaña) as she balances her “personal and professional lives as the tip of the spear in the agency’s war on terror.” The Paramount+ series aired its first season in 2023 and second in 2024.
While Paramount hasn’t publicly announced the new season, 101 Studios CEO David Glasser confirmed the third go-around to the Star-Telegram in mid-August.
After an initial round of casting, Texas-based Legacy Casting has listed several more notices for filming next month. Here’s what to know.
Here’s how you can be in ‘Lioness’ season 3
Legacy is looking for a double for Zoe Saldaña’s character as she works out.
The actor will be doing burpees, push-ups, bicycle kicks and more. The double would need to be game for all exercises and have a similar skin tone and body type to Saldaña’s, according to Legacy.
No concrete filming date has been set, although whenever it happens the pay rate will be $350 for 12 hours of work. Apply here.
