Seeking:
Tom: Male, any ethnicity, 17-21. Kid from middle class background, he seems a little naive towards all the “crazy people” that surround him in NYC. Not very outgoing, kinda geek personality and even almost funny looking, he has some brave and has an adventurous spirit. Beyond his immature personality he will find a magical object that will change his life forever and defy his most deep fears, in a parallel personal introspective quest that will make him become an adult.
Charlie: Male, any ethnicity, 17-21. He has been Tom’s best friend since they can remember. Not necessarily good looking, neither too smart, sometimes he can be a little pessimistic, but still patient and reliable. He will find himself in the adventure of his life that will make him find courage he didn’t think he had and become much more mature.
Sophisticated Woman: Female, any ethnicity, 20’s-30’s. Walks across Tom and Charlie and gets hypnotized by the amulet’s spell. Tom still doesn’t realize its power and walks by. Appears again in the final scene.
Beautiful Woman: Female, any ethnicity, 20’s-30’s. Walks across Tom and Charlie and gets hypnotized by the amulet’s spell. Tom still doesn’t realize its power and walks by. Appears again in the final scene.
Gorgeous Lady: Female, any ethnicity, 20’s-30’s. Sits right next to Tom and Charlie at the Monolith’s plaza to read a book and gets hypnotized too, until Tom tosses the amulet away and loose the charm, just because he feels embarassed. She feels harassed by Tom’s staring and leaves. Appears again in the final scene.
Homless Old Man: Male, any ethnicity, 50+. He lives in the park. Old and sick, being abused by two young punks who try to steal something from him. After Tom and Charlie saved him, still dazed, he gave the adventurous kids an object that will be the key to their victory.
Punks: Males, any ethnicity, 18-early 20’s. Wild youngsters that dwell around the park. They look dirty and troubled. They blame an old homeless man, believing that the old man stole something from them. Extremely scared from the police.
