You already heard about the Wanted Dead and Alive project and VA auditions, you're not crazy. But we have an emergency.One of our actors quite de project. He leaves behind him three orphan parts: Florio, Colin and Lloyd.
We're reopening the auditionsfor these three characters. We're not adding any specification to Florio's and Colin's description, so feel free to play them the way you think they should, basing your reflection only on the description.
-Colin
Description:
Colin is around 25 years old. He's one of Sophie's best men, strong and efficient, but stays very soft the rest of the time. He's the good buddy you want to drink a beer with. He talks with a warm voice and has a light French accent.
Audition Lines:
1: Sophie? I'm not that surprised. Everything her father built is slowly falling apart since she took the head of the operation.
2: (Surprised) Oh! (Gently mocking) I understand the grumpy face now. I forgot! The great Lloyd Smithson never captures people; it's funnier to crush them!
-Florio
Description:
30 years old. He's very gentle, soft and romantic, but is a coward. He has a high-pitched voice and an Italian accent.
Audition Lines:
1: (Intimidated, trying to calm her down) Mi amore, what can I do? He's the Padrino of the Italian mafia, dé big boss! I'm just his nephew. I have no influence on him, you know that.
2: He's... (searching for his words) he's old school. He can't understand a woman made her way to the top at such a young age.
The thing are a bit more complicated for Lloyd. We like how he sounded when played by Chris, and we're looking for something similar. Here's a little something that should help you figuring out how to play his part.
Lloyd Smithson
Description:
He's a 30 years old American. Rough, vulgar, obstinate, but not dumb. He's kind to his friends and has a good sense of humor. He's not mean to his friends, but mocks them or use sarcasm often and never show compassion overtly. He talks with a loud voice and has a basic American accent.
Audition Lines:
1: They finally turned these old sci-fi videogames' gadget into reality! Pull the pin, throw, it turns sticky, it sticks to the target... then BOOM!, you know?
2: (Annoyed) Fuck off, Colin! It doesn't scare me. The Godmother's the biggest fish to catch in Paris, (raising the voice and pointing his chest) and I'M gonna be the best fisherman!
