Netflix Paying Up to $700 for NJ Extras With Luxury Cars in Upcoming Comedy

 

 Netflix is filming the comedy 72 Hours in New Jersey this summer and is seeking luxury car owners to work as paid extras. The production welcomes SAG-AFTRA and non-union participants, offering competitive pay and a bonus for eligible vehicles. The film, 72 Hours, stars Kevin Hart as a corporate executive who gets mistakenly pulled into a younger group's bachelor party adventure. Directed by Tim Story and produced in collaboration with Sony Pictures, Davis Entertainment, HartBeat, Counterbalance, and Will Packer Productions, the film promises wild comedy and fast-paced antics. Participants will be compensated at $216 for 8 hours of work (SAG-AFTRA) or $181.50 for 10 hours (non-union), with an additional $500 offered for bringing a qualifying vehicle. To apply, interested individuals should email Grant Wilfley Casting at [email protected] with the subject line “IG Luxury Cars.”

 

Wildwood Cracks Down on Unauthorized Event to Protect Community

 Wildwood Police intervened to cancel a planned pop-up party promoted on social media by identifying the organizers. According to an official statement, law enforcement took proactive measures by identifying the event’s organizers early, leading to the cancellation of the gathering across various social media platforms. Although the event has been called off, authorities remain alert, warning rental property owners to be cautious of potential disturbances over the weekend. Authorities warned that pop-up parties often organized by large groups of young people online can lead to significant disturbances, including noise violations, public intoxication, and property damage. Past incidents have seen rental properties "taken over" by partygoers, resulting in costly repairs for owners.
