A charismatic young man who desperately wants to believe in love despite carrying years of unresolved trauma. Funny, impulsive, emotionally intelligent, and deeply flawed. Looking for an actor with strong dramatic range who can balance vulnerability, humour, rage, and emotional intensity. A Jacob Elordi type.
Ilyas's father. Once charismatic and successful, addiction slowly transformed him into a volatile and terrifying presence. This role demands emotional complexity, unpredictability, and intensity.
Ilyas's mother. A loving woman who has spent years trying to protect her family while surviving an abusive marriage.
Dry, sarcastic, nihilistic, and unintentionally hilarious. Every line lands with complete sincerity despite being brutally pessimistic. Excellent deadpan comedic delivery required.
A blue-collar junkyard employee with a sharp tongue, quick wit, and zero filter.
Physically imposing but emotionally reserved. Quiet, observant, and difficult to read. Beneath his calm exterior lies years of buried emotion and complicated loyalty. Requires subtle, understated acting with strong screen presence. Must be 6 feet or carry that type of energy.
Naturally charming, effortlessly attractive, and convinced he's figured life out. The comic relief of the group, but his confidence often masks immaturity and emotional avoidance. Strong comedic instincts and improvisational ability are a plus.
Jayla's judgemental father. Does not approve of her being an artist.
Jayla's Aunt, unsupportive of her art career.
Jayla's Uncle, unsupportive of her art career. Comic relief. Experience with comedy a plus.
A clueless pedestrian who attempts to buy art for $5. Comedic experience is a plus.
Attractive women, best friends of the main character. In a min-club of man haters. Funny, crazy and unhinged attitude. Examples: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Daux212xdqQ/? igsi=MThvNm8wbXdkdXprMA https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXHl3KlkaF9/?igsi=dDdqenpqajh3ZnUz
