HOLLYWOOD - Producers of the new Star Trek film are searching for people with "unique" looks to star as extras in the movie.
Odd-looking extras will get the chance to play Star Fleet military cadets in the film, which centers on the early experiences of Captain Kirk and his team.
The invitation to the casting session says, "This is an epic project and we are looking for the most intriguing and interesting faces to integrate in this film.
"Everyone must be thin, athletic, fit; wardrobe will be formfitting. All hair lengths on males and females welcome."
Auditions are being held on Saturday in California for people with odd characteristics such as "long necks, small heads, bug eyes, large foreheads and oversized ears."
Other features the production team is looking out for are large heads, wide- or close-set eyes, facial deformities, over- or undersized ears and noses, pronounced cheekbones or ultra-perfect or ultra-plain-looking people.
They must also agree to have their eyebrows shaved to make them 'Vulcan' shaped.
The film, to be directed by Lost creator J.J. Abrams, will be released in December 2008.
