Casting actors for "Genesis & The Seeds" Film, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: In a past where humanity on Mars was consumed by hatred, Adam and Eve, the last two humans with love in their souls, are chosen by Druid Genesis to escape the dying, polluted, warfare-driven planet and prove the inherent goodness of humanity in a neighboring world. Unfortunately, she is faced with the threat of power-hungry autocrats, The Prime Minister, and President Kolbur, who risk destroying her entire mission. They believe Eve and Poche should partake in the journey to maintain royal bloodlines. Genesis is appalled by this idea, but the Prime Minister and President Kolbur force her hand because they are funding this operation. When Poche discovers Adam will be taking his place, he attempts to kill Adam but fails to do so, resulting in the loss of his life at the hands of Genesis. Genesis realizes it’s now or never and prepares the launch sequence immediately. The Prime Minister and President Kolbur enter the control room a second too late as Adam and Eve are launched in the Interstellar Seed, and Genesis is tasked with fighting them off to make sure the seed lands safely. The couple successfully demonstrates their grace and spirit, securing a new beginning for humanity and planting the seeds of love on the new planet.

7 roles
Stunt/Knife Experience (encouraged)] Genesis is brazen, sophisticated, and level-headed. She has a supernatural emotional connection to the cosmos. Her goal is to save humanity and prove that humans are good beyond the greed that drove Mars to its breaking point. She is firm in her beliefs and won’t let anyone get in her way. She loves Adam and Eve and views them as the children she never had. SFX Makeup: Slight bruising/bleeding on the face and body. [LEAD]
Eve is warm, open-hearted, and courageous. She has a strong sense of curiosity about the world and is willing to leave everything behind to right her mother’s wrongs. She resents her mother, President Kolbur, for her part in destroying Mars and has no intention of reconciling that relationship. Eve is deeply in love with Adam and is confident the mission will be successful. Stunts: Physical acting in a confined space (Interstellar Seed). [SUPPORTING]
Adam is kind, endearing, and sharp. He always tries to be kind since he’s endured much suffering; Genesis adopted him at a young age after losing both his parents to the war, so at times, he feels this sense of imposter syndrome. He’s willing to do everything he can to save humanity, but he’s anxious about the mission. He does not think he’s right for the Interstellar Seed, but Eve and Genesis believe in him. [SUPPORTING]
The Prime Minister is sinister, cold-blooded, and aggressive. Every word not in his favor is a threat to him. Because of his loss of control on Tharsis Rise, he longs for power and control of this new planet; he hides behind the shame of his failed government through a facade of brutality. He views his son, Poche, as a tool for his dynasty and legacy and could care less about his well-being. [SUPPORTING]
Stunt/Knife Experience (encouraged)] President Kolbur is a domineering matriarch, apathetic, and meticulous. She acts with her brain and never lets her heart decide an outcome. She hates it when her boundaries are crossed. She chooses to sacrifice her daughter for the greater good, but deep down, she doesn’t want to let her go. SFX Makeup: Slight bruising/bleeding on the face and body. [SUPPORTING]
Poche is malicious, prideful, and observant. He thinks he’s above everyone who isn’t royal blood. He idolizes his father, The Prime Minister, and will do anything to appease him. SFX Makeup: Slight bruising/bleeding on the face and body. Stunts: uses a pistol and threatens, physical struggle and being disarmed by Adam, and stabbed and collapses after combat. [SUPPORTING]
Stunt Experience (encouraged). Eaglebane is tough, lionhearted, and loyal. He is President Kolbur’s advisor. SFX Makeup: Slight bruising/bleeding on the face and body. Stunts: armed during the confrontation, engages in physical combat with Genesis, is defeated, and collapses after combat. [FEATURED BACKGROUND]
