Roles
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Denise | Female 35 - 50 Years old |
Description Warm, polished, suburban perfection on the surface. Denise appears to be the ideal all-American mother and wife, but there’s a subtle sense she’s either ignoring something deeply wrong inside the household — or actively helping maintain the illusion that everything is normal. Friendly, composed, quietly uneasy beneath the smile.Tone: Pleasant suburban normalcy with underlying tension. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Big Lou | Male 50 - 70 Years old |
Description A bartender with quiet wisdom and the exhausted patience of someone who’s spent decades watching broken people self-destruct. Lou acts as an emotional bridge between Miles and Uncle Bob, often serving as the closest thing to stability either of them has. Grounded, warm, and understated. Uncle Bob's former detective partner.

| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Ashtray | Male 25 - 35 Years old |
Description Rico’s loyal henchmen. Equal parts threatening and ridiculous. Function like a comedy duo inside Rico’s chaotic orbit. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Spray Paint | Male 25 - 35 Years old |
Description Rico’s loyal henchmen. Equal parts threatening and ridiculous. Function like a comedy duo inside Rico’s chaotic orbit. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Bossman | Male 40 - 50 Years old |
Description Miles’ aggressively mediocre corporate boss. A former frat guy who weaponizes corporate jargon and intimidation despite barely understanding what’s happening around him. Equal parts insecure and power-hungry.Tone: Office-space-style comedic antagonism. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Fat Rob | Male 17 - 24 Years old |
Description A heavyset neighborhood kid with street connections and a laid-back attitude. Fat Rob hangs around with Silk and serves as one of the local low-level players who knows who's who on the streets. He's more talk than menace, preferring to joke around until confronted by someone tougher. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Silk | Male 25 - 35 Years old |
Description Smooth, stylish, overly confident flirt who thinks he’s cooler than everyone else in the room. Actually kind of harmless beneath the bravado. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Vance | Male 30 - 50 Years old |
Description An outwardly perfect suburban father hiding something dangerous beneath his polished exterior. Calm, friendly, all-American charm with subtle menace underneath. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Principal | Johnny | Male 17 - 22 Years old |
Description The seemingly normal suburban teenage son of Vance and Denise — awkward, withdrawn, and quietly unsettling beneath the surface. Johnny gives off the energy of someone trying very hard to appear ordinary while hiding an obsessive inner world. Intelligent, isolated, and emotionally disconnected, he becomes increasingly unnerving the longer you watch him. The role should balance deadpan comedy with genuine unpredictability. ANY RACE | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |

| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| Actor | Erica | Female 20 - 25 Years old |
Description Cute with an edge. Erica is Miles' attractive neighbor and the object of his obvious affection, though the feeling is decidedly not mutual, at least initially. ANY RACE | ||
