‘Must be male’ my ****

[Burnerbee]

Newspaper story here about a new film looking for horses and riders. It’s for a film being shot in Surrey and you need to have your own horse oh, and be a bloke - say what now??! Because er, as you and 30 others on horses gallop past in the mid distance, the camera will see you have boobs? Can you even discriminate like that when hiring these days? Why can’t women tie their hair up and wear a baggy top? If the casting director is reading this we’d like to know please

In Lord of the Rings the majority of the riders of Rohan were women because they struggled to get men for the roles.

Make up can work wonders!

Was gonna say the same thing. Most of those extras were lassies wearing fake beards!

Maybe they want them all topless.

I'd need a particular substantial beard to get away with that one

I definitely don’t appear to have any boobs whatsoever when I’m wearing a body protector. I imagine it would be the same if I wore a suit of armor or battle clothing

I also thought I’d get away looking like a bloke in battle attire but then decided that it was presumptuous that it was that kind of movie
It definitely wouldn’t take much effort to hide my boobs though

Oh if it’s Vikings I could tie my long hair under my chin for a beard!
