CASTING VARIOUS ROLES FOR SHORT FILM
We are now CASTING VARIOUS ROLES for a short film, Til Death Do Us Part, shooting in Los Angeles (non-union).
Synopsis: When Shawn and Victor get the opportunity to have one last big score together, they didn’t realize that they would be the ones fighting for their lives.
ROLES:
SHAWN (lead)
Male / age 37 / African American. Shawn is as laid back as laid back can be as a 10 year veteran assassin. He’s always in sweats and a t-shirt, with his hair either braided up or in a ponytail. Shawn comes off as laidback and chill, making himself comfortable wherever he goes. Which is why when he loses his temper (often) people are surprised by how explosive and dangerous he can actually be. *Note: Role already cast
VICTOR (lead)
Male / looks age 36 / Italian. Victor is a bit more buttoned up than Shawn, always donning a suit when he’s working. He exudes “made man” energy and is lethal, cut-throat and beyond precise. He never leaves loose ends to any job and is careful in every aspect of life, except for when it comes to women. Underneath the controlled precision, he is reckless with women and gets off with the excitement of being caught with them in compromising positions. *Fight choreography or self-defense experience is a plus.
RATE: $200 per day (appx. 4 days)
DAY PLAYERS:
MR. B
Male / late 50s / Open Ethnicity. Mr. B means business at all times and is very possessive of everything he owns, including his wife. He seems gentle and calm, but when you look into his eyes you can see danger.
RATE: $150 per day (filming 1/29/22)
TERRI
Female / looks mid 40s / Open Ethnicity. Terri is Mr. B’s wife and prized arm candy. She’s only with him for money and protection and doesn’t try too hard to be careful about stepping out on her husband. *Suggested/implied nudity required; no naughty bits!
RATE: $75/half-day (filming 1/27/22)
TONY
Male / looks mid/late 50s / Italian. Tony is your stereotypical Italian mafioso guy. He can be loud, but most of all he’s obnoxious.
RATE: $100 per day (filming 1/28/22)
PARTY GIRL 1 & PARTY GIRL 2
Female / looks age 25 / Caucasian or Latina. These girls walked out of the house to party, have men buy them drinks all night. And they feel like they’ve hit the jackpot with Tony.
RATE: $50/half-day (filming 1/28/22)
MR. B’S MUSCLE (3x Men): Open Age/Ethnicity – These men are fresh to the business and are used as pawns to Mr. B. *Fight choreography or self-defense experience is required.
RATE: $75-$100 per day (filming 1/29/22)
MR. B’S FEMALE MUSCLE: Open Age/Ethnicity – She is Mr. B’s most trust muscle & has been with him the longest. She’s unlike the other men because she knows she’s in charge.
