Any Ethnicity. The emotional center of the story. Sophie is quick-witted, chaotic, and deeply feeling; she processes life at full speed, mid-thought and mid-crisis simultaneously. Beneath her humour and deflection lives someone who has spent years shrinking herself to be loved, always the one who shows up, texts first, and loves loudest. Her arc is quiet but devastating: she arrives at the meeting with unresolved feelings and leaves with hard-won clarity. Needs to carry sharp comedic timing and genuine emotional weight without tipping into either comedy or melodrama. The role demands that both feel inevitable and true at the same time. $300 CAD/day flat fee.

Any Ethnicity. Polished, soft-spoken, and emotionally slippery. Though the story asks us to believe he's genuinely trying to be less so. Tommy ghosted Sophie for three years and has come back carrying real remorse and real growth, but also real blind spots he hasn't fully reckoned with yet. He's not a villain; he's a man who did damage while struggling with himself, and is only now beginning to understand the cost. The performance needs to make him sympathetic without letting him off the hook; the audience should understand why Sophie loved him and why she walks away. Charm is essential, but so is the grief underneath it. $300 CAD/day flat fee.

Any Ethnicity. Sophie's best friend and self-described bullshit translator. Cool, dry, and observant; she's the one who sees everything and says exactly what needs to be said, usually in four words or fewer. She exists as Sophie's grounding force, and her moments must land as both hilarious and completely earned; she needs a strong, specific comic presence. Chemistry with Sophie is essential. $100 CAD/day flat fee.

Any Ethnicity. Sophie's neighbour and ongoing situationship. Benito is confident, warm, and completely unbothered, a man at ease in his own skin. He’s extremely fit. His brief interaction is a pressure test on Tommy, and it works because Benito isn't trying to compete; he simply is. He is effortlessly magnetic. Physical presence matters here. $100 CAD/day flat fee.

Charming, boyish, but capable of carrying trauma — must be able to shift sides. He should be good with emotional intimacy and high emotional stakes. A tortured soul who we fall in love with despite his turning on Sara. We should be devastated when he turns on her.
