About the Job
Richard Sinclair
Age: 50s
Character Profile: Chloe's father and strategic equal - the person she's closest to in the world. Richard is magnetically charismatic with an understated authority that draws people into his orbit effortlessly. He has the kind of presence that makes everyone at a party gravitate toward him - not because he demands attention, but because he genuinely enjoys people and they sense it.
Personality: Sophisticated yet playfully irreverent. When Richard lets loose at parties, there's something irresistibly charming about watching this polished businessman become more relaxed.
He's the type of man who can command a boardroom and then make teenagers laugh at the same dinner table.
Role & Relationships: Richard operates in morally complex territory - he's facing serious fraud charges but maintains his charm under pressure.
His relationship with Chloe is his anchor: she's the "son" he never had, his confidante and strategic partner. He's not weak or bumbling - he's a smart businessman walking a tightrope between his public persona and private dangers, with Chloe as his most trusted ally.
Key Traits for Casting: Someone who can embody quiet power, genuine warmth, and strategic intelligence - think the quiet confidence of Jon Hamm.
The actor needs to convey that this man is both genuinely lovable and genuinely dangerous.
