Preliminary Cast for the Syndicate

Bill- (Protagonist)

What we expect him to do- We expect him to act appropriately to the desired genre (a mix between thriller and action), stick to stereotypes about the protagonist, look the part (suit)

How we expect him to act- we expect him to act to a desired level where he has to have serious facial expressions to show the severity of the task at hand, we also expect little dialogue from this character to keep the animosity about him, we want to show chemistry between two of the characters through a shot reverse shot

How he will incorporate stereotypes into his acting- possibly help people, chase after the bad guy, relate-able character, love interest

Matt- (Rogue agent)

What we expect him to do- we expect him to stay in character (rogue agent) and to be able to express the seriousness of the role through his acting

How we expect him to act- we expect him to remain anonymous to the audience as he is the character behind the whole plot of the film, perhaps through quick glimpses of him where the camera perhaps focuses on the protagonist to keep the antagonist hidden

How he will incorporate stereotypes into his acting- less relate able, running away from the problems of what he has cause, less nice, inconsiderate, negative facial expressions,

Conor- (Antagonist)

What we expect him to do- we expect him to say largely anonymous as he is a character we're not supposed to know the identity of, we can do this by having shots below the eyes to make him less relate able to the audience, we expect a sense of professionalism about him as he is the ring leader in the rogue agents actions. 

How we expect him to act- We expect him to keep a neutral serious expression on his face at all times, we need to purvey his authority in some way, he needs to say little but with a lot of power behind the way he says it

How he will incorporate stereotypes into his acting- as the main anatgonist he needs to come across as the bad guy, he can do this by sounding authoritative, having bodyguards, wearing suits, no front facing shots etc.

Zoey- (Love interest)

What we expect her to do- we expect her to be able to show her feelings towards the protagonist through body language and facial expression, she won't have the biggest part in the film but it will give valuable back-story to give the protagonist an incentive to do what he does.

How we expect her to act- we expect her to act like she is in love with the main character, like nothing can separate their love, we want loving looks and romantic type of stuff

How she will incorporate stereotypes into her acting- she will use love in the most effective way possible, maybe conform to stereotypes in some ways such as being controlled by emotions but subverting them in other ways by being indepndent rather than frail and passive.

Billy (extra)

What we expect him to do- we expect to fill multiple roles of different characters and to die a convincing death

How we expect him to act- we expect him to fall down convincingly and to fill a part of the film and to conform to stereotypes about the genres we have chosen

How he will incorporate stereotypes into his acting- He will be the henchman character for the antagonist or an extra innocent person which the protagonist fails to save, he will conform to stereotypes about the genre depending on the role he holds
