The production company behind "The Jersey Shore" is looking for Persian-Americans.
495 Productions and Doron Ofir Casting have announced that they're casting a "Persian version" of the MTV hit reality show about young Italian-Americans partying at the beach.
The casting call, which Gawker.com first reported, seeks applicants who are 21 or older, "appear younger than 30 and are outrageous, outspoken and a proud Persian-American."
A spokesman for 495 Productions didn't reply to questions about whether the show had any TV network deal.
The cast of the original "Jersey Shore" has begun filming the second season in Miami, however, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and company will indeed return to the Jersey Shore for the remainder of production.
MTV spokeswoman Emily Yeomans said Thursday a casting notice has been posted looking for possible new additions to the cast.
The second season is scheduled to premiere July 29.
Numerous attempts have been undertaken to mimic it, including a Russian-American version set in Brooklyn's Brighton Beach that doesn't yet have distribution.
