FOR ACTOR FRIENDS: New roles for Shepard being cast SOON We are preparing to go into production on Shepard, a web series that chronicles the story of a fallen rock icon as he rebuilds his life. We have four roles now available: SANDI. Single mother, late thirties / early forties. Former “bad girl” struggling to make an honest life for herself and her teenage son, while dealing with frequent visits from Rick, an abusive, unpleasant ex. Sandi never expected kids, but is a fiercely protective mother. She still likes to drink and have fun, and Jason Shepard is just her kind of bad boy. TREVOR. Sandi’s son. 14-16 years old. Quiet, unassuming, invisible. His indifference hides a deep anger that grows ever closer to the surface. He would frequently fight with Rick, which is part of the reason Rick is now an ex. Trevor has not had a pleasant life, and is close to a breaking point. RICK. Sandi’s vindictive ex. He controls through subtlety, using words before throwing fists – though he doesn’t hesitate to do that if he feels it’s necessary. He hated Jason Shepard even before Sandi took an interest in him. He feels justified in his actions, and simply believes he is often misunderstood. STACY. Minor speaking (2-3 lines in one scene). A curvy bar patron who recognizes Jason Shepard. Potential to be a recurring character. ___ In addition to the above roles, we also need extras for a few bar scenes, as well as a crowd to serve as background for a few scenes in a church. We film beginning in three weeks, so we are looking to move quickly. Auditions will be held on June 15 (location TBA) with a table reading the following week. If you’re interested, please forward your headshot and links to any work, as well as experience/resume/etc. to: casting at grimmsleeperproductions. Roles are currently unpaid as we attempt to establish our series and widen our audience. You will receive full credit and a copy of all material shot for use in demo reels. Thank you!
