Want to appear in a Martin Scorsese movie? Donate to charity for the chance!

Have you ever wanted to walk the set of a Martin Scorsese production? Do you fancy yourself as a background actor, there but not there as some of Hollywood's greatest actors strut their stuff for the camera? Are you looking for ways in which you can help with the ongoing COVID-19 crisis? If you answered yes to any of these questions, listen up, because I'm about to tell you about an offer that'll be difficult to refuse.

Oscar winners Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro are asking fans and friends to rise up for the All In Challenge, a digital fundraising effort that incentivizes donations by offering "once-in-a-lifetime experiences" from sports, music and entertainment figures as potential prizes. The goal of the challenge of course is to benefit those in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. As per the challenge, those who donate will have the chance to win a walk-on role in Martin Scorsese's upcoming feature KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON. As a bonus, the winner will also meet the actors and the director, and will be invited to attend the world premiere.

DiCaprio announced the initiative via Instagram on Wednesday alongside his Flower Moon co-star Robert De Niro.

For more information about the All In Challenge, feel free to visit fanatics.com for details. All donations will go to Meals on Wheels, No Kid Hungry and America's Food Fund, De Niro said.

It goes without saying that everyone is in a different boat right now, though we're all traversing the same choppy waters. If you have the means, and feel as if you want to do something that will help other people during this terrible time, maybe consider giving the All In Challenge a look. In fact, just last night, I'd donated to Border Kindness, an organization that responds to the immediate needs of migrants and refugees – as well as identifies and assists other organizations that efficiently and justly help the vulnerable in the Mexicali/Calexico Border Region. We're all in this together, and every little bit helps. Take care and stay safe.
