It’s hard to believe it but MTV’s The Real World is about to head into its 23rd season.  The current season is taking place in Brooklyn, with 8 very different roommates, many of whom are looking to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.  Though the location for the upcoming season has yet to be announced, MTV and Bunim/Murray Productions are already looking for new roomies and open casting calls are taking place across the country, beginning February 28th. 

“We look for characters from real life; people with strong personalities who are unafraid to speak their minds,” says Jonathan Murray, Executive Producer of The Real World.  Candidates must be between the ages of 18-24 and should bring a recent photo of themselves to the casting.  Here is a list of upcoming casting calls:
