Lead supporting. Anne is the warm and welcoming matriarch of an isolated Baptist community of one. Hospitable, calm, and deeply spiritual, she quickly earns the trust of those around her. Beneath her motherly demeanor lies an unwavering fanaticism capable of justifying terrible acts in the name of faith. Seeking an actress who can balance warmth, authority, and underlying menace. Vibe: Toni Collette (Hereditary), Ann Dowd (The Handmaid's Tale), Margo Martindale (Them: Covenant).
Supporting. Amber is Lydia's loyal best friend and emotional anchor. Softspoken, protective, and compassionate, she's the group's peacemaker and the first to care for others. Her trusting nature and desire to see the good in people may ultimately place her in danger. Seeking an actress with strong emotional range and natural chemistry with ensemble casts. Vibe: Samara Weaving (Ready or Not), Riley Keough (The Lodge), Kaitlyn Dever (Unbelievable).
Supporting. Nate is Amber's sarcastic, easygoing boyfriend. A skeptic through and through, he dismisses warning signs and prefers comfort over confrontation. Though self-centered at times, he's not malicious, just unwilling to believe something is wrong until it's staring him in the face. Seeking an actor with natural charisma, comedic timing, and the ability to play a flawed but likable character. Vibe: Joe Keery (Spree), Jack Quaid (Scream), Ben Hardy (Bohemian Rhapsody).
