Seeking talent from Dallas, TX; Fort Worth, TXRoles paying up to US$600Project Description:Casting "Almost Perfect," a romantic drama about two aspiring musicians.Dates / Locations:Shoots late June-early July in Fort Worth, TX.ISO:**(Asher - Lead. Male. 25-35 )Late 20s–Early 30s. Any ethnicity (white preferred for current vision). A thoughtful, kind-hearted musician who wears his emotions just beneath the surface. Asher is the type of person who feels things deeply but doesn’t always know how to express them - until he picks up a guitar. He’s hopeful, romantic, and quietly searching for connection, even after disappointment. He’s not a “perfect” leading man - he’s real, a little awkward at times, but deeply genuine. The kind of guy you root for because you recognize yourself in him.**(Autumn - Lead. Female. 25-35)Late 20s-early 30s. Any ethnicity (brunette preferred for current vision). Warm, creative, and effortlessly engaging, Autumn is someone who makes people feel seen. She’s a performer with a love for storytelling - someone who feels at home in coffee shops and creative spaces.She connects easily with Asher, sharing a natural chemistry that feels honest and unforced. However, she’s also grounded and realistic about her life, which creates a quiet tension between what could be and what is. She’s not a manic pixie dream girl - she’s real, thoughtful, and emotionally aware.**(Adam - Supporting. Male. 25-35)Late 20s-early 30s. Asher’s close friend and roommate. Adam is grounded, loyal, and serves as a steady presence in Asher’s life. He’s the kind of friend who doesn’t always say the perfect thing, but he shows up - and that’s what matters. He provides moments of lightness and reality, balancing Asher’s more introspective nature. Their friendship should feel lived-in and authentic, like two guys who have known each other for years.**(MC/Host - Lead. Male. 30-45)20s-40s. The host of the coffee shop’s open mic night. Charismatic, relaxed, and comfortable on stage. They help set the tone of the environment - welcoming, slightly quirky, and rooted in the local creative scene. This role adds texture and realism to the world, acting as a bridge between performers and audience.**(Madison - Lead. Female. 25-35)Late 20s-early 30s. Any ethnicity. Brunette preferred. Charming and engaging on the surface, Madison represents a kind of “almost” connection in Asher’s life. There’s a spark initially, but it becomes clear that she and Asher are not aligned in what they want or where they’re going. She’s not a villain - just someone living her life, unintentionally becoming part of Asher’s emotional journey. Her presence highlights the difference between infatuation and real connection.(Check character notes for more details.)How to Apply:Submit - Headshot/Photo, Video Reel, Resume
