About the Job
Boy; 12 to 15 years old; all ethnicities. Working class. Exceptionally smart, observant, and quiet, Charlie views the world through a scientific, methodical lens. Driven by grief and a quiet desperation. Think River Phoenix in Stand By Me. He’ll be a handsome man when he grows up. He’s the emotional core of the group. Mild violence and mild profanity. There is a scene where they witness an adult character getting shot. Charlie says the words "sh*t" couple of times. SERIES LEAD
