2015 winner David Engen
"Alt for Norge," the popular Norwegian reality series, is once again seeking Minnesotans for its competition.
The series, which has aired in Norway since 2010, will hold an open casting call for season 9 in the executive center at the Mall of America from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on Nov. 4.
The show has long attracted Americans with Norweigan roots who are interested in exploring their heritage through "Amazing Race"-type games. But casting director Joan O'Connor believes there may be even more incentive this time around.
"After the election, I began to see a shift with some applicants not just wanting to go to Norway to reconnect with family, but to possibly move there as well," she said in a press release.
Minnesotans have fared well in recent seasons. Winners from 2014, 2015 and 2016 all call the state home.
Applicants must have some Norwegian ancestry, be at least 18 years old and have not traveled to Norway after the age of 14. To get on the VIP list for casting call, email castingnorway@gmail.com
