Ananova:

Johnny Depp's new film needs 300 naked extras.

Men and women over the age of 16 are needed as extras in The Libertine which also stars John Malkovich and Samantha Morton.

Shooting is due to take place on the Isle of Man next month, says the Daily Record.

In the film, Depp plays the Earl of Rochester, the debauched 17th century poet and confidant of King Charles II.

The former Page 3 girl Nina Carter, who runs the casting agency Nina's People, is leading the hunt for the extras.

"We are looking for a wide range of extras, some of whom will have to appear naked in the film. There will be full and part nudity parts required. "We are also looking for people to play in crowd scenes with their clothes on," said Carter.

The production is described as "period piece packed with sexual material."
