The popular TV show Atlanta looks like it’s still on to return to FX in early 2022. But casting directors need some finishing scenes shot in Atlanta.
The scenes the show needs will be more particular actors and extras who fit a certain description. Keep reading for the deals. Here is the latest casting call for FX’s Atlanta:
Here Are The Latest Casting Calls For FX’s Atlanta

That’s when we can expect to see Season 3 episodes, according to comments from FX executive John Landgraf.
He said in a recent interview that the comedy-drama’s third season just wrapped filming. That means Season 4 has begun shooting in earnest.
Landgraf, speaking during the Television Critics Association Summer Press Tour, said, “We haven’t locked down the scheduling for Season 3 yet as it just finished shooting. It was shot primarily in Europe. It’s in post-production and it’s a lengthy post-production process and part of that is because they’re currently in production of Season 4 in Atlanta. All of the scripts for that season have been written.”
Atlanta was a top-rated show featuring Donald Glover and Lakeith Stanfield. But filming never resumed after Glover lost his father.
The series production team along with actors all are set to travel to Europe, where both Seasons 3 and 4 will reportedly be shot. Filming is expected to begin on April 5.
When Will Atlanta FX Return? Read This
So when will Atlanta return? Glover took to social media in April 2021 to say:
“Atlanta Season 3 comes out probably the beginning of next year.”
Glover made the comments in a random musing released on audio.

— Maurício (@MauricioRodrix) April 30, 2021
The popular show began production in March 2021. Glover signed an eight-figure deal with Amazon that includes his own content channel on Prime.
Both of the next two seasons are being filmed one after the next, which is something that they had planned to do even before the pandemic began.
In early 2020, John Landgraf, chairman of FX Networks, spoke at the Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena, California.
Landgraf said that the next two seasons will debut in 2021. But not only, that he indicated that Seasons 3 and 4 will be linked as a “Part 1 & 2” arrangement.
What we also know is that Season 3 will be 10 episodes and Season 4 will be eight episodes. If it’s going to be all part of one story arch, it makes sense that the seasons will be all shot in sequence.
According to Esquire magazine, the show’s new seasons hint that they will focus on the music career of Paper Boi, played by the magnificent Brian Tyree Henry.
Landgraf also tipped his hand to let us know that a large part of Seasons 3, 4 or both will be shot in a foreign country.

Buying the items you need has never been easier with online shopping, but are you using Google Shopping to get the best deal?
Google’s shopping tool can help savvy consumers save more money as well as get to the products they want. The redesigned Google Shopping experience now lets you track prices on items you want to buy.
In this article, we’re going to show you in a few easy steps how to track prices in Google Shopping.
Track Prices With Google Shopping And Save Money
If you’re not aware, Google Shopping is a shopping comparison tool that you can access inside your internet browser or via app. With Google Shopping, you can browse departments, search products and compare across stores.
Among the recent changes to the site is that you now have the option to buy an item three ways:
- You can choose to purchase online
- At a local store that has the product
- Or directly from retailers on Google
While all of that is great, perhaps the most important change to savings-minded shoppers is the new “price track” tool.
How Price Track Works
When you see an item you’re interested in, turn on “price track” and you’ll receive a notification on your phone when the price of that item drops. Let;s walk through the steps:
1. Go to Google Shopping and Search For Your Item
As an example, I searched for a Playstation 4 Pro gaming console and found one for $399.99.
2. In the Right Rail, Find the Track Prices Icon
I think I can get a better price, so I located the Track price button.
3. Toggle It to On to Track Prices
Once I toggled the Track price button to on, a got a screen notification that says: “You’ll get price drop alerts for Sony Playstation 4 Pro.” Here’s a screenshot of what that message looks like:
Google says you’ll have the option to receive those alerts through email, where you’ll be notified of any price changes.
How to Stop Tracking Products
You can stop tracking products either of two ways:
- By returning to the Google Shopping product page and turning the price toggle off.
- Or by going to Google’s My Activity page and deleting your activity history.
Now you’re tracking the product’s price and Google will notify you if it goes on sale. Google will send a daily email with information on price changes over the past 24 hours. You can stop tracking products in Google Shopping by going to Google’s My Activity page and deleting your activity history.
Last Words
Ultimately, tracking prices is a great way to save money for all kinds of items you need. If you want to save on groceries, tracking prices is how you do it.

DeKalb County is home to a new Black Wall Street that aims to spark innovation and business creation among minority- and women-owned companies.The New Black Wall Street Market opened Black Friday weekend. The campus will be a marketplace that focuses on African-American entrepreneurs.
New Black Wall Street Coming To Atlanta Area
The facility, which will be located in Stonecrest, will feature a food hall, shops, restaurants and entertainment, according to its website.
When Will The New Black Wall Street Open?
The New Black Wall Street initially opened on Saturday, Oct. 30, 2021, The soft opening was in conjunction with a Harvest festival, according to the facility’s Facebook page.
“The New Black Wall Street Market, located in Stonecrest, Georgia, will serve as a destination for family fun, entertainment, retail, gourmet grocery shopping, and fine dining,” the post says.
“The purpose of the market is to cultivate relationships with business owners in the Atlanta area, provide entrepreneurial training to enhance skills, offer a community for small businesses, and assist with the transition of online stores to brick-and-mortar,” officials told WSBTV.
Embedded in the celebration is a homage to the original Black Wall Street, which was destroyed by white rioters in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921.
From the ashes of that memory, Stonecrest organizers aim to make the new marketplace a Mecca that fosters minority and women-owned businesses to succeed.
What Businesses Will Be Included In The New Black Wall Street?
The market will feature:
- food court
- retail stores
- jazz club
- gallery space
- grocery store
- event meeting space
- bakery and more.

The New Black Wall Street Market was developed by the Allen Entrepreneurial Institute, an entrepreneurial ecosystem that fosters the development of stronger entrepreneurs and sustainable businesses.

The three men who filmed and performed the execution-style shooting death of Ahmaud Abrery have been convicted in a Glynn County, Georgia, courtroom.
The defendants — Gregory McMichael, his son Travis McMichael and their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan — were all found guilty of felony murder in the killing of Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man fatally shot while out for a jog on February 23, 2020.
The three white men, who all pleaded not guilty, were facing charges ranging felony murder to criminal attempt to commit false imprisonment.
In closing arguments earlier in the week, prosecutor Linda Dunikoski argued that trio could not claim self-defense because there was no evidence of Arbery committing a crime or being named in one.
Man Involved In Slaying Of Ahmaud Arbery Convicted Of Murder
One week after the slaying, Arbery’s family had been calling for Bryan’s arrest even as he has been doing a lot of press interviews with his lawyer.
In the weeks that followed, many people feared a racial controversy stirred up by outsiders.
Benjamin Crump and S. Lee Merritt, the attorneys for the victim’s family, did their part to publicize the case. They said in a statement that “The family of Ahmaud Arbery was relieved to learn the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has today taken William ‘Roddie’ Bryan into custody.”
“We called for his arrest from the very beginning of this process,” they said. “His involvement in the murder of Mr. Arbery was obvious to us, to many around this country and after their thorough investigation, it was clear to the GBI as well.”
Gregory and Travis McMichael have told authorities that they thought Arbery fit the description of a burglar who had been seen in the area recently.
The victim’s mother, Wanda Cooper Jones, told reporters her son was just jogging like he does every day.
“I saw my son come into the world,” Jones said, according to CBS News. “And seeing him leave the world, it’s not something that I’ll want to see ever.”
“These men were vigilantes, they were a posse and they performed a modern lynching in the middle of the day,” Lee Merritt, an attorney for Arbery’s mother, was quoted as saying.
On the video, you can see Travis McMichael struggle with Arbery for the gun before you hear a gunblast, then another one to the chest.
In the police report, McMichael reportedly says that Arbery “began to violently attack” him, leaving him no choice but to shoot.
As the jurors all agreed, that was simply not true.

Atlanta has been a major market for home listings site Zillow’s home buying program, which is called Offers. Now the Offers are off the table.Zillow said on Tuesday that it’s exiting Offers, its business that buys and flips homes, and eliminating 25% of its workforce.
Zillow Offers Shuts Down
Zillow revealed the news in its third-quarter earnings report. , which detailed how the company missed its earnings mark to the chagrin of analysts.
The company said that it would cost too much money to keep the program afloat.
“We’ve determined the unpredictability in forecasting home prices far exceeds what we anticipated,” Zillow CEO Rich Barton said in the release. “Continuing to scale Zillow Offers would result in too much earnings and balance-sheet volatility.”
Zillow’s home buying prowess has been getting significant backlash after a viral TikTok explained how the company was buying up properties in the inner city and created an artificially inflated market by suppressing prices in some areas and causing them to rise in other areas of the market.
