Real Families
About the Job
THESE ARE REAL FAMILIES ONLY. IF WE CANNOT FIND A REAL FAMILY WE WILL MAKE ONE FROM ACTORS SUBMITTED FOR THE OTHER ROLES, BUT HERE, FOR THIS ROLE, ONLY SUBMIT REAL FAMILIES. PLEASE MAKE NOTES AS TO FAMILY MEMBERS AGES. Family Makeup: 1 mom, 1 dad, and 3 kids | Bi-racial or mixed race parents. Age Range: Parents should feel like youthful Millennials in their 40's. Kids approx. 4-10 years old across three age groups. Open to older child talent that presents younger. Casting Direction: This family's dinosaur road trip is full of sibling banter, inside jokes, unexpected laughs, and the kind of everyday moments that make their adventures memorable. Their chemistry should feel effortless balancing big personalities with genuine heart, and reflecting the warmth and authenticity of an ethnically diverse family. Mom and Dad are confident, relatable parents with an easy, affectionate rapport that keeps the family grounded. Dad is the calm backbone everyone instinctively turns to, while Mom keeps things moving with her knack for logistics and playful humor. Their three kids each have a distinct point of view: a witty oldest sibling with natural leadership, a middle child whose dinosaur obsession fuels endless comedy, and a joyful youngest who is perfectly content in a world of their own. Together, they create a family dynamic that is expressive, funny, and authentic without ever feeling performative.
