Background Students (ages 6-14)

About the Job

Abbott Elementary is returning for season 6! We are casting minors between the ages of 6-14 to work as background students in school settings, including hallways, cafeteria scenes, and core classrooms. Filming is set to begin in August 2026 and will work through February 2027, shooting out of Warner Bros Studios. There are opportunities for minors to work regularly throughout the season or part time depending on their schedules. If you have open availability and are interested in your child working steadily on a production - we'd love to have you submit! The minor background rate is $231.00 for 8 hours (231/8). All minors MUST have a valid work permit in order to be cast. Once cast, minors are required to have a guardian on set with them at all times, as well as attend schooling on set (if currently in school).
