New Netflix Series OBX filming on Hunting Island & looking for extras!!!
Calling all teens and young adults
The Outer Banks of North Carolina have long been the setting for many romantic novels, movies & TV shows. Next, this picturesque shoreline will serve as the backdrop for a new Netflix series, OBX.
While the title of the new series is OBX, the series will actually be filmed here, on the shores of South Carolina instead – as a showing of protest of a North Carolina state law preventing cities from passing laws that protect trans folks’ access to public accommodations.
The series will start filming on Hunting Island in May! If you want to play a part in this, follow the Facebook page TW Cast and Recruit, where you’ll find instructions on how to submit and what to include in your email.
