11 roles
The smartest person in the room. A forensic-minded investigator with sharp instincts, dry humor, and zero patience for incompetence. We’re looking for: An actress with grounded performances, dry comedic timing, and the ability to play the “only sane person in the room.”
Tall with a bigger build preferred but not definite A loyal but inexperienced rookie field operative trying to prove he belongs while constantly finding himself in over his head. We’re looking for: A naturally likable actor with expressive reactions, emotional honesty, and strong comedic instincts.
Open to ALL ethnicities A MI6 and CIA intelligence surveillance support reject . Whose wild conspiracy theory ideas may actually be closer to the truth than anyone realizes. We’re looking for: An actor comfortable with physical comedy, improv, eccentric characters, and fast-paced dialogue.
Certified Hood Activist, motivational speaker, self-proclaimed "ear to the streets." Speaks almost entirely in his own invented philosophy and vocabulary — total commitment to the voice is essential. Comedic on the surface, genuinely unsettling once his composure cracks.
Age: 40s-60s | Gender: Female The office secretary nobody's ready for. Runs on coffee, her stories, and her own schedule — sassy and unbothered right up until something actually matters, at which point she snaps into total seriousness instantly.
Age: 20s-30s | Gender: Female Loses more than almost anyone else in this story. Grief turns into determination fast — she's not naturally suspicious or hardened, but circumstances make her that way.
Age: 20s-30s | Gender: Female Sees danger before anyone else in her family will admit it's there. Loves fiercely, carries real guilt, and turns grief into resolve rather than falling apart.
Age: 20s-30s | Gender: Male A man who makes one desperate choice trying to provide for his family — and watches it spiral completely out of his control. Not naive, not reckless; someone who talked himself into believing the risk was smaller than it was.
Age: 20s-30s | Gender: Male Loyal and street-smart, guarded with strangers but soft the moment it's someone he loves. Gets pulled into something far bigger and more dangerous than he ever agreed to.
ETHAN Age: 20s-40s | Gender: Male The lead of the documentary crew filming this story. A real journalist with real instincts, slowly becoming invested in a story far stranger than the one he came looking for. Smart, patient, professionally skeptical.
Age: 20s-30s | Gender: Female Part of the documentary crew filming this story — sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, always the first to notice when something doesn't add up. Calm and quietly relentless without ever being confrontational.
