Submissions from
Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Montréal, Ottawa, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Charlottetown, St. John's, Sudbury, Kelowna, Windsor
Role description

Warm, polished, suburban perfection on the surface. Denise appears to be the ideal all-American mother and wife, but there’s a subtle sense she’s either ignoring something deeply wrong inside the household — or actively helping maintain the illusion that everything is normal. Friendly, composed, quietly uneasy beneath the smile. Tone: Pleasant suburban normalcy with underlying tension. ANY RACE

Role description

A bartender with quiet wisdom and the exhausted patience of someone who’s spent decades watching broken people self-destruct. Lou acts as an emotional bridge between Miles and Uncle Bob, often serving as the closest thing to stability either of them has. Grounded, warm, and understated. Uncle Bob's former detective partner.

Role description

A heavyset neighborhood kid with street connections and a laid-back attitude. Fat Rob hangs around with Silk and serves as one of the local low-level players who knows who's who on the streets. He's more talk than menace, preferring to joke around until confronted by someone tougher. ANY RACE

Role description

The seemingly normal suburban teenage son of Vance and Denise — awkward, withdrawn, and quietly unsettling beneath the surface. Johnny gives off the energy of someone trying very hard to appear ordinary while hiding an obsessive inner world. Intelligent, isolated, and emotionally disconnected, he becomes increasingly unnerving the longer you watch him. The role should balance deadpan comedy with genuine unpredictability. ANY RACE
