"13 Reasons Why," a new Netflix series produced by Disney star Selena Gomez filming around the North Bay, is looking for "real people" to serve as extras and stand-ins.

Producers are interested in people of all ages, types and ethnicities to play background characters like high school students, basketball players, cheerleaders, parents and coffee shop patrons.

The series, based on the award-winning young adult novel written by Jay Asher, is shooting in and around Sebastopol, San Rafael and Vallejo this summer.

Casting calls will be held on May 21 at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts (282 S. High St., Sebastopol) from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. and May 28 at 1175 Railroad Ave., Building 1310 in Vallejo from 11 a.m-3 p.m.
