Fred Armisen must like hanging around Portland in the summertime. The co-creator and costar of "Portlandia" is back in Portland this June to film Season 3 of "Documentary Now!" the clever parody of classic documentaries that Armisen created with his "Saturday Night Live" colleagues, Bill Hader (recently in the terrific HBO series, "Barry"), Seth Meyers ("Late Night With Seth Meyers") and Rhys Thomas.

In a casting call for extras, we're told Season 3 of the Emmy-nominated comedy, which airs on IFC, will film June 4-27 in the Portland area. According to information from Weeble Mountain casting agency, extras work pays $11.25 an hour, and extras are asked to bring their own wardrobe options.

According to a Weeble Mountain Facebook post: "We need all kinds of people! Kids, hippies, bowling enthusiasts, babies, musicians, 'regular' people, wacky people, and beyond! We love mustaches, beards, long hair, and interesting faces of all kinds!"

In a press conference in late March, Meyers discussed two episodes coming up in the seven-episode Season 3. One will be an homage to space-race documentaries, and follow the process of how American heroes pulled off the Apollo 11 moon landing.

Another is inspired by the 2012 documentary, "Marina Abramovic: The Artist is Present," which explored the process as conceptual artist Abramovic prepared for a show at the Museum of Modern Art.

The "Documentary Now!" spin on will focus on an internationally known performance artist as she prepares for a career retrospective, while also exploring the artist's relationship with a former lover.

"Documentary Now!" episodes are hosted -- as if it's been on public TV for decades -- by a tongue-in-cheek Helen Mirren. The show's executive producers also include Alex Buono and Andrew Singer, of Broadway Video, the production company behind "Portlandia."

In the two previous seasons, Armisen, Hader and assorted guest stars have appeared in episodes inspired by and filmed in the style of such classic works as "Grey Gardens," "Nanook of the North," "History of the Eagles," "The War Room," "Swimming to Cambodia," "Stop Making Sense" and "The Kid Stays in the Picture."

Though production begins in June, we'll have to wait until 2019 to see Season 3 of "Documentary Now!" on IFC. The first two seasons are available now on Netflix and iTunes.

We've reached out to IFC and the extras casting company for more details, and will update if/when we hear more.
