IRIS, 30, open ethnicity, FRANCOPHONE, is an interior designer and Rex’s owner. Coming from an affluent bourgeois background, she grows up believing that the world is structured according to a clear and unshakable hierarchy. From an early age, she learns how to get what she wants while concealing her deepest vulnerabilities, particularly a fear of abandonment stemming from her parents’ divorce. Elegant and polished, with a natural screen presence. Socially confident, she is highly controlled in her appearance, posture, gestures and language. Perfectionist, demanding, and organized, she has a natural sense of authority. She can be warm and charming, but there should always be a sense that she is carefully observing and controlling her environment. Able to convey subtle violence through a look, silence, or polite remark rather than direct confrontation. Beneath her calm exterior and control, she hides a certain vulnerability. She must be able to portray an ambiguous attachment to Julia, combining genuine affection, condescension, jealousy, and a need for closeness. A morally complex character that should not immediately come across as “the bad guy.”

LIAM, 33, open ethnicity, FRANCOPHONE, Iris’s husband and Rex’s owner, is a charismatic man who is highly skilled in social interactions. Coming from a wealthy family with dubious business practices, Liam learned early that power belongs to those who know how to bend the rules. Behind his image as a self-made man on social media, much of Liam’s success is built on his family’s money and Iris’s wealth. Their marriage is a constant power struggle: Iris is both his greatest trophy and a threat to his need for control. Liam needs to seduce, possess, and feel that he dominates his surroundings. When a problem arises, he is not interested in the truth, but in whatever version of events best serves him. Athletic, polished, and socially confident, with an effortless air of success. Charming and energetic, he naturally draws attention in a room and can appear warm, funny, and generous. His charisma should gradually reveal something more intimidating and unsettling beneath the surface. The actor should be able to portray an ambiguous, manipulative, and controlling character without immediately appearing antagonistic, while suggesting contained violence behind his charming, composed exterior. Comfortable with psychological tension and power dynamics.

More mature, worldly, and highly sociable, Alice tolerates Julia without considering her a friend. They never spend time together outside of school. Sharp and resourceful, Alice is hardworking and socially capable, with a grounded, no-nonsense energy.

Ted, early 20s. A slightly overweight, sweet-natured young man. He has an endearing, boyish quality, with a playful sense of humor and an earnest, almost disarming innocence.

Affectionate, trusting, and genuinely devoted to his girlfriend, Sherilyn, he wears his heart on his sleeve and wants nothing more than to make her happy. When a romantic evening turns into a nightmare, Ted’s sweetness gives way to disbelief and escalating panic as he faces imminent death. An ordinary young man completely out of his depth, he must fight to survive. Requires strong comedic timing and the ability to shift from awkward charm to increasingly frantic terror. **Please note this role has simulated intimacy, partial nudity (underwear), graphic horror violence and gore, physical distress, and strong language.**

Dupont, gurú de millonarios. Gemelo perdido de Diego Dreyfus (en todo sentido), Es un hombre magnético e inquietante, con una presencia que se siente antes de que hable: delgado entrenado, de rasgos duros y algo afilados, skincare evidente, mirada de cazador y una calma que aparenta meditación pero en el fondo es ensayada. Tiene un aire entre gurú espiritual y empresario millonario: postura relajada pero controlada, movimientos lentos, voz suave que obliga a los demás a inclinarse para escucharlo. Su estilo mezcla lujo y misticismo, como alguien que convirtió el dinero en filosofía de vida. Transmite una vibra hipnótica: cercano, sereno… pero con algo que no termina de ser confiable, como un punto medio entre un iluminado y un depredador. Es el tipo de hombre que parece tener todas las respuestas, aunque a oídos de un verdadero sabio sonaría como Cantinflas. En esencia, Dupont es extremadamente inteligente, manipulador y estratégico; entiende las inseguridades de los demás y sabe exactamente cómo explotarlas para llevarlos hacia donde le conviene.

Lorenzo, socio del club “Valle Real” y empresario. Es un hombre de clase alta con una presencia relajada pero sofisticada: atractivo dentro de su edad, de complexión cuidada sin exagerar, canas bien llevadas y una sonrisa amable que transmite cercanía sin perder estatus. Tiene el aire de un sugar daddy en su mejor momento. Transmite la vibra de alguien que no le hace falta nada en la vida y solo le resta ayudar a los que sí. Posturas abiertas, movimientos tranquilos y una forma de hablar tan cálida que puede malinterpretarse como seductora. Su estilo es elegante pero sin rigidez, con una estética de lujo silencioso. A diferencia de Rodrigo, Lorenzo no marca distancia: la acorta. Transmite una vibra amable, accesible y encantadora, como ese hombre que cae bien en cualquier mesa, pero que también sabe perfectamente lo que hace. En esencia, Lorenzo es inteligente, observador y emocionalmente hábil; entiende a las personas y sabe cómo conectar con ellas, lo que lo vuelve naturalmente persuasivo. Es la prueba viviente de que se atraen más moscas con miel que con caca.

Chisco Laresgoiti, es un hombre de clase alta que vive en constante performance: atractivo, de complexión cuidada, rostro expresivo y sonrisa amplia que parece siempre lista para la cámara. Tiene una energía expansiva, invasiva, con una forma de moverse y hablar que busca atención constantemente: risas fuertes, comentarios rápidos, confianza inmediata que a veces se siente impostada. Cree que descubrió el hilo negro y si una cámara lo siguiera en su vida cotidiana, veríamos cómo se la pasa intentando hacer que todo en la vida se trate de él. Su estilo es impecable pero más llamativo que el de su círculo, como alguien que sí tiene dinero y quiere que los demás lo noten. Transmite una vibra de encanto ruidoso: cae bien, es divertido, socialmente hábil, pero con un fondo de inseguridad que lo empuja a sobrecompensar. Es el típico amigo que hace el chiste antes de que alguien más lo haga. En esencia, Chisco es inteligente y oportunista; entiende las dinámicas sociales y sabe adaptarse a ellas, pero rara vez lidera: prefiere alinearse al poder (como con Rodrigo o Dupont) para mantenerse relevante.
