Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Film#1: Madison (Lead) / Film#2: Bella (Lead) | Female 30 - 35 Years old |
Description Film#1: The Night She Said No MADISON (Lead) Age: 30 Height: Any Physical Appearance: Beautiful, polished, effortlessly charming. Must sell both genuine warmth and cold calculation. Description: A woman who said yes for all the wrong reasons. Madison's journey moves from panicked cover-up through performative joy to total exposure. Requires strong comedic instincts — must balance manipulation, charm, and desperation without tipping into caricature. Critical: ability to play physical comedy authentically, and a face that reads clearly in close-up. --- Film#2: Love, Lies and Consequences BELLA (Lead) Age: 30-35 Height: Any Physical Appearance: Striking, effortlessly seductive. Must sell both the con and the genuine panic when it unravels. Description: A woman running two men simultaneously who ends up with neither. Bella's journey moves from calculated manipulation through escalating terror to desperate, miscalculated optimism. Requires strong instincts for physical comedy and genuine fear. Critical: the seduction sequence in Scene 1 must be convincing, and the final moment alone with a groaning Frank must land as the punishment she earned. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Film#1: Andy (Supporting Lead) / Film#2: Dougie (Lead) | Male 30 - 35 Years old |
Description Film#1: The Night She Said No ANDY (Supporting Lead) Age: 30 Height: Any Physical Appearance: Boyish, clean cut, tech-guy energy. Warm and genuine. Description: A romantic who planned everything perfectly — except for who he was planning it for. Andy's journey moves from beaming optimism through quiet devastation to dignified exit. Must play sincerity throughout without being naive. Critical: the turn at the end must land quietly, not big. --- Film#2: Love, Lies and Consequences DOUGIE (Lead) Age: 30-35 Height: Any Physical Appearance: A little soft, a little nerdy. Unsuspecting. Quietly dangerous underneath the ordinary exterior. Description: A man who comes home thinking he's won, only to discover his wife's affair and lose his money at the same moment. Dougie's journey moves from oblivious elation through betrayal and captivity to cold, decisive exit. Must play charm and threat in equal measure. Critical: the fake knockout reveal and the final confrontation must land as genuinely surprising — the audience should underestimate him the same way Al does. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Lead | Film#1: Brock (Lead) / Film#2: Todd (Supporting) | Male 30 Years old |
Description Film#1: The Night She Said No BROCK (Lead) Age: 30s Height: Any Physical Appearance: Buff, conventionally attractive, built. The kind of man who looks better than he thinks. Description: Madison's lover and unwitting accomplice. Brock's journey moves from hiding behind curtains to hiding in plain sight. Plays easy going and low stakes in high stakes situations — the comedy lives in the gap. Critical: physical presence reads on camera, reaction work carries the role. --- Film#2: Love, Lies and Consequences TODD (Supporting) Age: 30s Height: Any Physical Appearance: Attractive, self-satisfied, completely unbothered — until a gun appears. Description: Bella's lover and the unwitting catalyst for everything that follows. Todd has no idea what he sets into motion when he walks out with Dougie’s suitcase. Brief but pivotal — his refusal to return it is the hinge of the whole script. Critical: must be likeable enough that his dismissal of Bella reads as funny, not cruel. | ||
