Potential Super 8 Casting Call is Searching for the Hottest 13-Year-Old Girls in America

Over the last few days, several movie websites "accidentally" received casting call information from Paramount for what sounds like J.J. Abrams's upcoming Super 8, the secret project Abrams shot and released a teaser trailer for before any actors were actually hired to be in the movie. What can we glean from this casting information? The movie is about three 13-year-old kids from the midwest, and while actors who submit for the two boy roles can be scrawny, fat, cute, whatever, the young actresses who go in for the lead girl role definitely have to be "natural beauties" and "stunning."

Sure, it may sound a little unequal, but just console yourself with the fact that Chloe Moretz basically has this part in the bag if she wants it. Good luck going up against Hit Girl, unknown child actors!

Here's the casting information in full:

Seeking 13-14 year old Boys & Girls for the lead roles in a new Paramount feature film. No previous acting experience is necessary, but must have great energy and a wonderful sense of humor and thoughtfulness.

JOSH: Male 13-14. Josh is cute, but could be on the scrawny side - definitely not the school jock. Loveable, empathetic, smart and interesting. Must have a great sense of humor. Should have a Midwestern feel.

COLLIN: Male 13-14. Slightly, or more than slightly, overweight. Collin is confident, driven, optimistic and a natural leader. Must have a great sense of humor. Should have a Midwestern feel.

NATALIE: Female 13-14. A natural beauty - she is stunning, but not the "cheerleader" type. Strong and confident, but has an underlying sadness. Should have a Midwestern feel.

    If I make a comment on this one, does my email get put on a list that requires me going door-to-door when I move?

    Too bad, I thought Ali Lohan might have had a breakthrough shot with this one until I read the requirements.

    Ignoring the age requirements, this is also the casting call for every Judd Apatow movie.

    Ignoring the age requirements, this is also the casting call for every movie and TV show made since 1975.

    Stunning like a cattle prod to the testicles; which is what you will get when her "Midwestern" daddy catches you admiring how "stunning" she is...
