CHARACTER BREAKDOWNS
Gigi
Late 20s / early 30s
Originally from England, has kept her English identity secret even from her husband of 8 years – so need someone who can do both an English and an American accent
She is cute, but definitely tough, had a hard upbringing back in England (her dad’s business got involved with the mafia and so did she)
She has no issue killing her ex and dismembering his body in their bathroom
ideally has fight or stunt experience
Oliver
Late 20s / early 30s
Gigi’s American husband of 8 years (clueless of her mafia-involved, butcher-job back in England)
Sweet but a bit queasy when it comes to seeing blood, somewhat on the soft side, but is he?
Angus
33
British (ideally in real life, or can do a really good ‘dirty’ English accent)
Tough, hooligan-type guy
Is coming to get what was taken from him
ideally has fight or stunt experience
