Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Mike | Male 25 - 40 Years old |
Description Caucasian. Confident, charming and elegant. Compelled to fight injustice. A skilled marksman. A weakness for women. Mike is a helpless romantic- think of him as a younger version of Sean Connery’s\Roger Moore’s James bond. Although Mike is dead serious in his endeavor to fight crime, he does have an important comedic side. Bill Hader’s character in “Barry” is an interesting reference for Mike’s personality. “Barry” is quirky, dangerous and funny-without trying to be any of these things. Mike’s traits can at times venture into slapstick territory, and that’s totally ok. Too often, the comedy comes from Mike’s inability to read other people and he sometimes responds or reacts inappropriately in a hilarious way.important ** !!! we are looking for comedic skill and charm. Please bring a duality energy to the scene. Funny, witty, confident, quirky, socially akward Please do 2 takes- different versions. more funny, more serious, a mix, ect | ||
