Pup Star
September 2015 filming for Pup Stars at Royal Theatre in Victoria – Mel Z

It was just over a year ago they filmed a movie called Pup Star at the Royal Theatre. Now they’re casting dogs again for a sequel. If you’ve got a life of leisure in mind for your dog, oh wait, haha, I guess your dog already has that. Well, then if you’d like to see your dog on the big screen or Netflix, check out this local casting call. 

This afternoon, casting is happening between 2:30 – 4:30pm at 836 Viewfield Road in Esquimalt — for dogs. The movie’s background casting director said a core group of “well-behaved, awesome, adorable dogs” and humans are required for Air Bud Entertainment’s Pup Star 2, which starts filming mid-November in Victoria.
