2 roles
These two characters are covert operators embedded in an interrogation scene. They are disciplined, silent professionals — the kind of men who do terrible things without flinching because the job demands it. Most of their work is physical: positioning, restraint, controlled aggression. They speak rarely, but when they do, every word lands with weight. Their faces are masked for much of the scene, so physicality, presence, eye work, and voice are everything.
