3 roles
A blue-collar cab driver type who prides himself on being a “regular guy.” Outwardly friendly, talkative, and confident, but his charm hides deep insecurity. When challenged—especially by women—his easygoing demeanor gives way to aggression and defensiveness. Charismatic but volatile; a man masking vulnerability with bravado. Approachable yet capable of intimidation; average build and grounded presence.
A corporate lawyer reluctantly drawn into a public trial far outside his comfort zone. He begins the case flustered and unprepared but relies on quick wit and instinct to stay afloat—growing in confidence as he faces moral and personal challenges. Smart, anxious, endearing; a reluctant hero type. Corporate, clean-cut, professional with a touch of charm.
Will cover two principal roles as follows: DEFENDANT - JACK CLIFTON and DEFENSE ATTORNEY - FRANK GOSFORD
