3 roles
Leader by chance, innovative by choice. Maybe a bit of a skeptic. Launched into leadership amidst chaos. Guy with the ideas who expects others to fall in line behind him and get it done. He leads the charge in hiding Ned’s body. $200/DAY for five days inclusive of $20/day meal stipend & $20/day wardrobe stipend. All interiors. Each shoot day is from 8am-4pm. $75 for 3hr rehearsal. Experience with choreographed fighting is a plus
Freddy’s friend, who goes along with his antics unwillingly. A bit of a pessimist. Enjoys the finer things in life (his London Fog). Incredibly nervous to get caught. Just got a new job and would really like to not go to jail. $200/DAY for five days inclusive of $20/day meal stipend & $20/day wardrobe stipend. All interiors. Each shoot day is from 8am-4pm. $75 for 3 hr rehearsal. Experience with choreographed fighting is a plus
Freddy and Eddie’s friend, who sleeps like the dead. Unbeknownst to them, he is not actually dead. Easygoing guy who loves a good party. $200/DAY for five days inclusive of $20/day meal stipend & $20/day wardrobe stipend. All interiors. Each shoot day is from 8am-4pm. $75 for 3 hr rehearsal. Physical comedy experience necessary. Must be comfortable “playing dead”, and being manipulated a la Weekend at Bernie’s.
