Screen Daily<\/a> is reporting that open auditions for the part of Lyra in the upcoming His Dark Materials film will be held. The producers say they are looking for a girl “who embodies Lyra's loyalty, bravery and mischievous nature” and say that she need not have any previous acting experience.<\/p>\n

Auditions for the role will be taking place solely in England: at Cambridge, Oxford, Kendal and Exeter. The auditions will be held during the first two weeks of this April. A girl between the ages of 9 and 13 is being sought, allaying fears that Lyra's age would be raised for legal or moral reasons. <\/p>\n

If you are planning to go to the auditions and are interested, then you can email us here<\/a>. Your stories would be featured here after each of the auditions. <\/p>\n
