Thriller Short Film Lead Casting
Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR
I’m casting two dynamic lead characters for my upcoming thriller short film. The story centres on tension, misdirection, and a final twist, so I need performers who can sustain suspense and convey layered emotion without lengthy dialogue.
Both leads must convincingly play 18- to 25-year-olds. I’m open to all genders and backgrounds, provided you can inhabit the age range and carry the screen time.
What to send
• A recent head-shot and full-body photo
• A brief résumé or link to your Showreel
• A self-taped audition: 60–90 seconds performing a dramatic monologue of your choice that showcases range and subtlety
Key dates
• Submission deadline: one week from project award
• Call-backs (via Zoom): the following weekend
• Principal photography: two consecutive days next month in Kerala
If you thrive on psychological tension and can anchor a short narrative, I would love to see your work.
