About the Job
Legal 18 to play 17 years old. SHY, ARTISTIC, OVERTHINKER, at the bottom of the social ladder. A closeted, sensitive kid who would rather draw in his sketchbook than throw a punch, he’s blindsided when his tough-love dad forces him onto the wrestling team to “toughen him up.” Cal hates conflict, but underneath the anxiety is a surprising resilience and sense of humor; over the season he discovers his confidence, his sexuality, and what it really means to be “tough.” Must be comfortable with queer romance and intense emotional scenes. SERIES LEAD.
