About the Job

Ambrose is a brilliant, emotionally sealed man whose grief fractures into obsession. He begins as a tragic romantic—restrained, wounded, deeply in love—and rapidly evolves into something darker: a man who mistakes possession for devotion. Think: Oscar Isaac / Pedro Pascal / Tom Hardy in intensity and interiority rather than imitation. This is a performance driven almost entirely by subtext, restraint, and psychological collapse, not melodrama. Acting Demands Heavy dramatic material Emotional repression followed by controlled unraveling Grief, obsession, moral corruption Physical / Technical Period wardrobe Night shoots Light physical action (struggling, movement) Ideal Actor Strong theatre or film training Comfortable working with student crews Patient, collaborative temperament Enjoys building layered characters Reliable, calm under imperfect conditions
