Miami
After escaping a violent crime family, Dimitri hides in Miami’s kitchens, trying to rebuild his life one dish at a time. But when a woman from his past finds him, he’s given twenty-four hours to repay an old debt — or lose everything he’s clawed back. Forced into underground games and old instincts, Dimitri must decide whether to stay clean… or return to the violence he thought he buried.

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
50s, famous critic in white linen—the “night we’ve been praying for.” His presence raises the stakes for the whole restaurant. Elegant, observant, not loud; the nod he gives at the end is basically a verdict on their lives. Specs: 45–65, Italian/Italian-American or similar European culinary-world v... [See More]

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
20s beginner on the line moving tomato cans, doing grunt work. Mostly visual, but embodies the “new kid” in service. Specs: 20–28, any gender, open ethnicity (ideally fits the kitchen’s existing mix), a bit lost but trying, reacts to chaos more than drives it; featured extra/possible day player (ma... [See More]

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
Mid-20s Russian, Sergei’s daughter. Lives in Miami running “accounts”—essentially debt collection with brains instead of brute force.

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
Papa Voice (possible Cameo), Katarina’s father, an old-school Russian boss still in Moscow. Mainly heard on the phone—dry wit, ruthless worldview, treats family and business as the same ledger.

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
30s German ex-military working as Katarina’s shadow and enforcer. The guy who carries the extra box, drives the car, and quietly reads the room.

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
40s Latin chef-owner of Terre del Sapore, equal parts hustler, dad, and firefighter—running a drowning restaurant and a drowning family budget.

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
Late-20s grill cook, slick, territorial, and proud. Feels the restaurant is his home turf and Dimitri is the outsider who stole “his” spot on the line. Big ego, fragile underneath. Starts as petty rival, then becomes a reluctant partner in grey-area money-making and borderline crime. Not a mustache-... [See More]

Submissions Due:
01/08/2026
Cooks/driver Manuel plays cards with. Locker-room energy, loud, teasing; not outright criminals but used to grey money. They help flesh out the working-class Miami world and Manuel’s environment. Specs: 25–40, Latinx (feels like back-of-house Miami), funny and a bit shady but not evil, comfortable ... [See More]
