“Renegade.”

Contractor – Female preferred. Tall. Cold, calculating. On the older side, so 40-50. Gray/silver hair if possible. Pretty okay at faking confidence, but a slimy coward underneath.
Renegade/Cobalt – Female. Dark brown hair. The actress must be able to portray a bipolar character – the ability to have a “cold/hard resting face” is a necessity. Must also be able to be friendly and confident, and act semi-arrogant.
Neighbor: Condescending, nosy. Female is preferred but male should work just fine. 45-50 years old.

“Isla.”
Liam : is around the age of 16-17. He’s been friends with Isla for years now and has been in love with her for a very long time. Liam is an introvert-extrovert kinda guy, meaning he’s quiet and loud at the same time. A classic converse and flannel is his go to outfits.
Isla: is around the age of 16-17. She’s a quiet and very reserved person. Isla has also dealt with so much through the years so there’s a sad undertone. She’s been friends with Liam for years but doesn’t know she’s been low-key in love with him. Converse and jean jackets are her classic outfits.
Francine: is around the age of 40-45, has a “hippie” sense of fashion. She’s very calm in terms of parenting, Francine wants Isla to explore life something tragic happened in her life.
Older Isla: is around the age of 22-23 because we fast-forward 5 years later. She’s still an ambivert and seems to be coping with everything that happened in the past nicely.
Older Liam: is around the age of 22-23 because we fast-forward 5 years later. He hasn’t gotten over what happened between him and Isla, imagine Sebastian and Mia from La La Land.
