Have you always thought your son should be an actor? Perhaps you weren't sure how to get him started, or you don't live anywhere near Hollywood. Well, here's your child's chance to become a star.

Twentieth Century Fox is turning the New York Times bestseller, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, into a film, and they want your child to be the star.

According to the press release, here's what they're looking for:

"The filmmakers will be auditioning males, ages 10-13, only. The character of Greg Heffley is slight, physically unprepossessing, and not overly cute or precocious. He has a quirky, memorable face, is bright and articulate, and possesses a vivid fantasy life -- but he is cursed by the fact that he's in middle school. Auditioning actors must be able to handle dialog and have a flair for ironic comedy. (Think: a younger version of Michael Cera... or imagine Larry David in middle school.)"
