Casting Calls - JANET

About the Job

About the Job

Janet, 37, is a fiercely protective mother running on adrenaline, instinct, and sheer love. She’s someone who has carried the weight of danger for a long time, always thinking two steps ahead to shield her son. There’s a toughness to her—resourceful, sharp, and unflinchingly determined—but beneath it is a deep well of tenderness that comes through when she speaks to Billy. She’s used to hiding the truth to keep him safe, and she knows how to coach him through fear without showing her own. In this moment, she is terrified but composed, guiding Billy with calm urgency. Janet is a survivor, someone who’s learned to navigate threats with quick thinking and emotional intelligence. Her love for Billy is her driving force, and she’s willing to break, lie, or run if it means giving him a chance to escape. Even as she sends him away, her heartbreak is evident—quiet, restrained, but devastating.
