The movie adaptation of Paula Hawkins' novel "The Girl On the Train" is all about a struggling alcoholic named Rachel Watson (played by Emily Blunt) who enjoys peeking into strangers' lives as she rides the train to work.
Rachel is mainly obsessed with a couple named Scott and Megan, but at one point in the movie, she will apparently get a glimpse of a character who will be pleasuring himself or herself.
According to Page Six, the movie is willing to pay $906 for a "Male or Female Nude & Masturbating."
The notice in the newspaper reads: "Seeking the following . . . Male or Female, 20s-50s . . . Possibly interested in a heavy-set woman but all types can apply. Must Be Willing To Be Completely Nude On Camera And Simulating Masturbation. Only submit if you are comfortable with this type of situation."
As daring as the role might seem, a rep from the movie said that they might not even use the scene in the end.
"Like the book, the character in the film catches fleeting glimpses of people through windows... this might not make the final film at all," the rep said.
Earlier, Blunt told Deadline that playing Rachel is possibly her most challenging role yet.
"The idea of playing a part like that where you just feel like you're drowning is exciting. I've never played a blackout drunk before, so this is new to me now," she said.
Blunt revealed that she has never tried delving into the mind of a "damaged" woman, and she had to do so in order to give a convincing portrayal of Rachel.
"I just love that it's about addiction and loneliness and voyeurism and what we think we see and don't see. I think it's very relatable," she gushed. "We've all ridden the train to work and wondered about the lives of the people on the train, and I think that people relate to that. I love that your heroine, your lead character is the most unreliable witness in the world because she's a drunk. And yet she's right, and nobody believes her."
"The Girl On the Train" will be released on Oct. 7.
