About the Job

LEAD: 22-30. Any Ethnicity. Intense, scruffy, brilliant. He is a perfectionist drowning in the “sophomore slump.” He is a role for an actor who can handle long takes and heavy emotional transitions. Think Black Swan meets Adaptation. He is a “prodigy” currently paralyzed by his own ghost. Character Notes: He is a brilliant comic artist who peaked early with a previously hit project. Now, he is drowning in the “sophomore slump.” He isn’t just “tired”, he’s vibrating with the fear that he’s a fraud. We are looking for an actor who can play stillness and manic obsession equally well. Key Performance Requirement: Must be able to portray “The Spiral”—the moment where a creative block turns into a mental breakdown. Physicality is key; he should look like he forgets to eat when he’s drawing. Requires comfort with mature themes and intimacy.
