Petty Officer Grady “Rooster” Whitlock
The Perimeter


About the Job
Rooster is the youngest member of the unit — fiery, impulsive, and emotionally raw. He's the best at what he does, and he knows that. He has a lingering innocence that sets him apart from the rest. As the story unfolds, he begins to question the mission, his surroundings, and eventually reality itself. Rooster transforms from a tactical expert into an unraveling survivalist determined to break the loop that’s trapped them all.
Looking for: High emotional range. Actor must be able to convey vulnerability, paranoia, and a slow-burning awakening. Physicality important — this character is reactive, alert, and expressive.
