It was on the 20th July that Okehampton People broke the news that Steven Spielberg was to film his latest film, The Warhorse, using Dartmoor locations. At the time this was dismissed as mere speculation - and the company casting extras for the shoot insisted it was for a film called 'Dartmoor'.

But just three weeks later, the local media are awash with the story, with  Spielberg's progress through the area making top billing.

However, as GhostofMrsP reported on 5th August, although over 1000 turned up to apply to be extras, few seem to have been called. Has there anyone out there heard back from the Casting Collective? I certainly have not!

If anyone has more stories about the filming, please post them here... and we'll keep ahead of the rest!

    Over a year on, Warhorse - and Dartmoor - is up for Oscar nominations. Pity we didn't make it as extras! http://tinyurl.com/6edeexq

    If you were at the Princetown casting haven't heard back from the casting company by now, then you haven't got a part (no, I haven't either!). They are doing the costume fittings today at Princetown for the lucky sausages who did get a part.
