Casting

Earl Benjamin, executive producer and CEO of C3 Entertainment, says:[2]

We scoured the countryside to find the right Boys to play little Larry, Moe and Curly. It just wasn’t anybody. Trust me. We auditioned over 2,000 kids to play little Larry, Moe and Curly. And our search was not in vain because of all the work we did and all the Boys we auditioned and the lovely people we met along the way in all these auditions for little Larry, Moe, and Curly, we were so pleased to find just the right boys.

Gordy De St Jeor was cast as Moe,[1] Liam Dow as Larry[1] and Luke Clark as Curly.[1] The principal casting was completed with production starting in the Fall of 2017.[1]
