Zombie Show Set For Local Filming

This week SyFy announced it ordered a new zombie TV show called Z Nation — and it’s going to be filmed here in Spokane. Big Fish NW Talent is looking for hundreds of Spokane-area extras for the 13 episodes, and they’re casting for a “variety of sizes, shapes & colors.” Those who are interested should register with them here . Z Nation is from the same production company that introduced the world to Sharknado , so expect a different tone than, say, The Walking Dead . SyFy describes it as a “unique new journey into the long-established zombie genre” that offers hope instead of “existential despair”/ Lisa Wanaanen , Bloglander. More here. (AP file photo)
