.

CHARACTERS:

'Malcolm' Played by Sergy

Malcolm is the 16 year old main character in the film. Due to the fact that I am a teenager and roughly the same age I realistically fit the role of playing Malcolm very well, furthermore the actors appearance is also important in this instance, I come across and look innocent, this is useful as I am the protagonist and also the victim therefore the audience will grow attached to Malcolm due to the actor appearance, which fits the conventions of thriller movie.

The 'Attacker' Played by Carlos

The attacker must come across as menacing and intimidating and I believe that Carlos fits the role. He is physically bigger than Malcolm therefore he will come across as intimidating from the audiences point of view. Also due to the actors ethnicities once again the roles seems realistic as you would expect young black males to live in urban locations, rather than having white males.

Extra, Malcolms Friend to be played by marlon

Marlon will play the role of Malcolms friend in the film, he doesn't do much in the film and is only used in one scene. Malcolms friend is a teenager roughly the similar age to the character he is going to play, therefore the role will come across as believable.
