7 role s
Lean/Athletic A loyal and impulsive soldier with a strong moral compass. Less experienced than Frank, but deeply empathetic—sometimes to a fault. Acts on instinct rather than orders, especially when someone is in danger. In the opening scene, his choice defines the trajectory of both men's lives. Needs vulnerability, intensity, and emotional immediacy.
Once vibrant, now physically fragile and facing terminal illness. Gentle, reflective, and burdened by years of guilt. Despite his condition, he maintains a quiet warmth and humility. His presence forces long-avoided confrontation and reconciliation. Needs an actor capable of conveying deep remorse, compassion, and emotional honesty with minimal dialogue.
A disciplined Staff Sergeant with natural leadership instincts. Calm under pressure, authoritative without raising his voice. Carries the weight of responsibility for his men, masking fear with control. In the opening scene (Bosnia, 1995), Frank is sharp, focused, and mission-driven—but beneath that is a man who will carry guilt for decades. Requires strong dramatic presence and subtle emotional depth.
A hardened Army veteran now battling illness and unresolved trauma. Gruff, stubborn, and emotionally guarded, with a dry edge of humor. Carries decades of resentment and guilt beneath a tough exterior. His journey is one of reluctant vulnerability, ultimately leading to forgiveness and quiet peace. Requires strong internal work and layered emotional range.
A young, inexperienced soldier overwhelmed by the chaos of combat. Anxious, reactive, and visibly shaken under pressure. His panic triggers the pivotal moment in the opening scene. Requires high emotional intensity in a short amount of screen time.
A compassionate, grounded VA nurse with a calm and reassuring presence. Balances professionalism with a touch of warmth and subtle humor. She acts as a quiet observer to the emotional journey unfolding between Frank and Ben. Needs naturalism and understated empathy.
