Job: Bristol. {PAID} Seeking Male Actor (Age 23-28) for Role of Frankie in Film ‘Ket Zombies (& The Joy In Giving Up)’
About the Project /Job:
An original dark comedy about a zombie outbreak at a rave in Stokes Croft
Project Title: ‘Ket Zombies (& The Joy In Giving Up)’
Synopsis:
"Wreck your head, infect the dead"
A rollercoaster dark comedy about a strain of ketamine that turns people into zombies. We follow from the perspective of two close but dissimilar mates. Frankie, who gets bitten and "turns" and the other, Ali, who stays sober and seeks reason. One goes on a magical adventure to find God and the other bitterly fights for survival. A high tempo and ridiculous comedy that encapsulates culture, drug culture and UK culture into one big happy mess.
Character:
Frankie
About the Character:
Male, aged between 23 - 28.
Frankie is in many ways your classic cliche bristolian hippy, he loves foraging mushrooms, the sunshine, a good book and ketamine. A cheeky and happy go lucky character, he believes it is our responsibility to push the realms for our mind so doesn't fear the ket zombies but instead is frighteningly jealous. Actors must be comfortable with smoking fake tobacco!
Frankie's main intention throughout the story is to further his own knowledge through drugs and spirituality. Although he plays a vital role at the end, it's essentially a happy accident. He represents the carefree joy and chaos of life when inebriated. He also likely has ADHD.
Frankie has a strong bristolian / west country accent, messy (preferably long) hair and a carefree attitude, he has a cheesy grin and his charismatic persona is a driving force.
