Storyline
We are casting for Pregnant-ish, a character-driven comedy-drama exploring friendship, panic, and the suspended moment before a life-altering decision. The film is dialogue-heavy, performance-forward, and grounded in naturalism, humor, and emotional intimacy.
We are looking for actors in their early to mid 20s who feel comfortable with overlapping dialogue, long takes, and emotionally nuanced performances. Chemistry between the ensemble is essential.

Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Frankie | Female 20 - 26 Years old |
Description Independent, confident, and uncertain all at once. Frankie holds herself together until life forces her to stop pretending she can. The emotional anchor of the film, she oscillates between humor, fear, numbness, and vulnerability.Actor note: Requires strong emotional range, comfort with vulnerability, and natural comedic timing. Nearly always on screen. This role Includes non-graphic sexual content. Comfort with intimacy required. Intimacy Coordinator available upon request. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Romy | Female 20 - 26 Years old |
Description Dry, observant, and emotionally allergic to BS. Romy sees everything, says most of it, and delivers her care through deadpan commentary and perfectly timed interruptions. She never sugarcoats, but never makes things worse.Actor note: Strong reaction acting and ease with overlapping dialogue. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Tess | Female 20 - 26 Years old |
Description Steady, practical, and quietly authoritative. Tess becomes the anchor when things unravel, guiding the group without needing control or attention. She listens first and speaks with intention.Actor note: Grounded presence; subtle leadership rather than overt dominance. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Birdie | Female 20 - 26 Years old |
Description Loud, impulsive, and fiercely loyal. Birdie talks first, thinks later, and feels everything deeply. Her chaos is sincere, and her care for her friends is genuine, even when misplaced.Actor note: Strong comedic instincts with the ability to land emotional truth and oscillate between the two easily. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Actor | Jude | Male 20 - 26 Years old |
Description Soft-spoken, inoffensive, and aggressively average. Jude plays bass, asks “Is this good?” too often, and leaves a lasting impression only by accident. Seen in one flashback that reframes a thoroughly underwhelming hookup.Actor note: One scene only. Includes non-graphic sexual content. Comfort with intimacy required. Intimacy Coordinator available upon request. | ||
