When a film needs extras, the director will advertise it in some shape or form. You can usually find offers in the newspaper. Directors usually look for locals to “star” as extras. If you keep your eyes open for that kind of thing, I’m sure you’ll get an opportunity to be in the background to the next blockbuster; however, I think you might have a better chance getting screen time if you actually went to Hollywood and auditioned for a small role.
