Did you always want to be an extra in a movie but can’t be bothered with head shots and SAG cards? Lucky for you, Be In A Movie is looking to fill a stadium in Massachusetts for the new Christian Bale/Mark Walhberg movie, The Fighter, and frankly, they don’t care who shows up.

The movie is shooting a boxing scene for three days in Lowell, MA, just outside of Boston, on July 14th, 15th and 16th. "Be In A Movie "has teamed up with Paramount Pictures to find unpaid extras who can fill the stands for these three days. So if you're looking for something to do for your summer vacation, this might be the ticket.

To register, all you have to do is RSVP at Beinamovie.com and commit to attending the shoot on one of the scheduled days from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. They will be provide free parking and raffles for CDs, DVDs and Gift Cards.

According to Be In A Movie, Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg will both be on set all three days so you may even have the added bonus of seeing one of Bale's naughty temper tantrums live!

The Fighter is the true story of Dicky Eklund (Bale), a boxer-turned-trainer who rebounded after getting involved in drugs and crime. With the help of his half-brother “Irish” Micky Ward (Wahlberg), Dicky became the world lightweight championship in the mid-'80s. He’s best known for two battles with Arturo Gotti which are considered the greatest battles in the history of boxing. Amy Adams also recently signed on to play “a tough, gritty bartender and former college high-jumper” who ends up dating Wahlberg’s character.
