3 roles
Lead. A restless young man, tall and lean, with the disheveled charm of someone who’s always on the cusp of unraveling. Grayson is intelligent but reckless, driven by desperation and deep guilt over his past. He masks his inner turmoil with sarcasm and impulsivity, but underneath, he’s fraying. This role demands strong emotional range: Grayson experiences fear, regret, and a slow, haunting realization of his own darkness.
Supporting. An ethereal presence that lingers between memory and reality. Riley is charismatic, warm, and effortlessly likable—until the cracks begin to show. There’s an innocence to him, but also an underlying fragility. As the story unfolds, his demeanor shifts, revealing layers of confusion, betrayal, and quiet devastation. This role requires a nuanced performance that moves from casual charm to eerie intensity.
Supporting. A self-assured, enigmatic professional with credentials that don't quite add up. Dr. Harrow is equal parts composed and unsettling, delivering their services with a sterile precision that teeters between clinical detachment and something more predatory. They are a businessperson first, a scientist second—if at all. The role calls for an actor with a commanding presence who can oscillate between reassuring authority and quiet menace.
