The e-mail, sent out to its list of background extras and obtained by the Hollywood Reporter, asks for potential extras to wear t-shirts and carry signs. “We understand this is not a traditional “background job,” but we believe acting comes in all forms and this is inclusive of that school of thought” it reads.

According to the email, Extra Mile was working in partnership with New York-Based political consulting group Gotham Government Relations and Communications, who has worked with Trump in the past.

When contacted by the HR, Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski denied both the claims and ever having heard of Extra Mile or Gotham GR.

“Mr. Trump draws record crowds at almost every venue at which he is a featured speaker,” Lewandowski said. “The crowds are large, often record-setting and enthusiastic, often with standing ovations. Mr. Trump’s message is, ‘Make America great again.’ ”

The Extra Mile Casting e-mail appears in full below:
