THE CHARACTERS
LEADING ROLES
ALLY
Protagonist
With a sprite-like presence and unshakable drive, Ally is a fiercely independent, Type A stuntwoman - a force of precision and control. Beneath her tough exterior lives a deeply vulnerable heart, fractured by the loss of her beloved dog, Kai. As she embarks on a transformative journey, Ally is forced to confront her inner demons, and listen to the quiet pull of her intuition. Caught between skepticism and instinct, she leaps boldly into the unknown, shedding the invisible ties of her past. In doing so, Ally discovers that beneath the armor is a graceful warrior who learns that true strength lies in putting down her swords in the face of love.
KAI
Ally's Guide
A feisty 10 lb Mini Australian Shepherd with a giant personality with an endearing cross-eyed look. Loyal, affectionate, and full of attitude, Kai’s irresistible charm brings people together. After her tragic death, her spirit becomes a symbol of unconditional love, guiding Ally toward healing and self-discovery.
NEWTON
Ally's Hairstylist
Ageless, radiant, and unapologetically fabulous, Newton is a Black, nonbinary force of charm, wit, and cosmic insight. A magnetic presence, Newton draws people into their orbit, inviting reflection, laughter, and awakening. They exist outside the ordinary, a reminder that identity is fluid, reality is playful, and the path to self-discovery can be dazzlingly unconventional.
LUNA
Ally's Best Friend
Warm, earthy, and vibrantly alive, Luna radiates a lush, effortless femininity. She embodies elegance, allure, and unbridled joy, think essence of Penelope Cruz. Her energy is infectious, her spirit free, and she supports Ally on her soul’s transformative journey.
CB
Fellow Stuntman
He’s a gentle giant that radiates joy and lives in Care Bear T-shirts. Late 30's with a Jack Black essence, a sailing machine, and a seasoned stuntman, he tackles any challenge with effortless ease. Even with a bit of extra padding, he bounces around with infinite energy. A loveable lush that has a hearty appreciation for spirits which tends to bring out the cuddly ‘care bear’ side. He represents play and unconditional love as well as being a comedic relief.
NYKO
"Boss"
Early 40s, with the intensity of Walton Goggins or the polish of Theo James, he embodies the old world, sharp, materialistic, and addicted to excess. He clings to status, pleasure, and control to mask a deep, unhealed void. Everything external is armor against the darkness he refuses to face.
SIRIUS
Captain
Think Adam Driver, mid 40’s, a complex, guarded soul with a light spirit. His rugged, commanding presence conceals deep pain and underlying insecurities. As a sailboat captain, he’s found solace in the ocean’s vastness, but his emotional scars remain, waiting to be healed. He and Ally share a soul contract, their union predestined.
ORION
Soulmate
Think Matthew McConaughey, 40's, salty and ripped, he exudes a relaxed confidence. He has a free-spirited, charismatic presence, engaging and completely at home in his own skin. His calm energy is infectious, and his gentle, mischievous smile coupled with his piercing blue eyes, completes his captivating charm. As Ally's soulmate, they orbit each other, their connection deepening through her trials of self discovery, ultimately leading them to a profound union.
SUPPORTING ROLES
MICK
Stunt Coordinator
He’s a fearless, loud, cocky Aussie, striding through the chaos of a movie set with unapologetic confidence. Every move exudes pride in his work, a legendary stuntman who commands respect. He embodies the self-sacrificing, old-world spirit of Hollywood, tough, relentless, and impossibly skilled.
TARA
Actress
She carries a clear movie-star persona, confident and effortlessly composed in any environment. She represents a contrast version of Ally, centered, emotionally stable, and self-assured, wherein she moves with ease, no longer defined by past struggle.
WOODIE
Director
Late 50s, a masterful, acclaimed director with a commanding presence. Self-absorbed, high-strung, and a calculating ego. Think Woodie Allen obsession fused with James Cameron’s domineering confidence, his brilliance rivaled only by his arrogance.
CHIEF IBO
Indigenous Healer
He is an indigenous healer shaped by tradition and lived experience. Rooted in ritual and nature, he carries deep ancestral knowledge and quiet authority. He helps guide Ally through the darkness of a psychedelic experience.
