About the Job

JOHN - Supporting Lead (Shoots approx 5 days). Caucasian Male. Age 30s. John carries a quiet intensity that draws people in. He is warm, observant, and deeply empathetic, often communicating more through silence than words. His stillness feels alive, charged with thought and feeling beneath the surface. Physically intuitive, John needs movement to process emotion—hanging, climbing, or engaging his body as a way to stay connected to the world around him. His emotional range is subtle but rich: tenderness that slips into melancholy, moments of lightness that reveal unhealed wounds, calm that conceals inner turbulence. This role requires an actor who can express depth with minimal dialogue—a grounded physical presence, emotional restraint, and an instinctive, embodied performance. Comfortable with suggested intimacy with the female lead.
