Beckett Clydesdale The Third

About the Job

Male lead, 18-25. golden-boy swim captain and heir to an old-money legacy. Appearance: Tall, hunky, broad-shouldered, and classically handsome, Beckett is sculpted for victory. Always immaculate—pressed uniforms, tailored coats, pristine swim gear—but as his life unravels, that polish starts to slip. Even at his messiest, he still reads expensive. Personality: Beckett is charismatic, proud, and deeply repressed, trained to perform perfection at all times. He masks fear and confusion with arrogance, sarcasm, and cruelty, especially when he feels exposed. Beneath that is a passionate, impulsive, and emotionally overwhelmed young man who desperately wants freedom but has no idea how to claim it. Objective: Maintain his family’s approval and future while secretly exploring feelings he’s been taught to suppress. Character arc: Beckett begins as the untouchable golden boy, fully committed to image and denial. Tyler destabilizes everything, forcing him to confront desire, identity, and fear of losing everything he’s been raised to value. By the end, Beckett rejects the life built for him and chooses to define himself on his own terms, even at great personal cost. NECESSARY TO HAVE SWIMMING EXPERIENCE. Open to portraying LGBTQ+ characters. Has intimacy scenes with Tyler.
