About the Job
Man, 20-30, Indian American (first-gen, New Yorker). Fast-talking, decisive, with a strong New York edge. Jackson is used to being in charge. He’s much younger than Ronny, but also his boss and relative, and he leans into that power. Can be dismissive, his humor often lands as a put-down, a quality that can feel casually cruel. Underneath, he’s juggling multiple responsibilities, carrying pressure he doesn’t show. That stress leaks out as impatience and control. There’s a slight overcompensation in how he presents: worldly, self-assured, trying to stay ahead. The life he projects feels bigger than the one he’s actually living. Talent must be based in NYC or work NYC local. Non-Union. SUPPORTING ROLE.
