About the Job
About the Job
Jay is a self-made man who rebuilt himself after being rejected by the world he wanted to belong to. His confidence is constructed, not inherited. Beneath the polished surface lives a man driven by longing, hope, and emotional obsession. He is neither a predator nor a cynic. His core engine is romantic belief: the conviction that the past can be corrected if he becomes “enough.” That belief makes him tender, persistent, and ultimately tragic. Jay controls his emotions carefully. He thinks strategically but feels deeply. Around Daisy, his discipline fractures. His greatest fear is not failure but becoming insignificant again. WHAT THE ACTOR SHOULD PLAY Quiet intensity and emotional vulnerability under control. Gatsby rarely explodes. His pain exists in pauses, restraint, and unspoken longing.
