Who I had in my film, why I cast them, and how I did the casting.

Casting

Dominic Beharry

As well as being the writer and director I chose him to be the lead actor and protagonist because he has the best understanding of the back-story and how the character he plays works. Having a n actor who can be the person they are acting makes it realistic and more believable as a film. The lead plays two characters the modern day assassin, and his ancestor from he 18th century, although this character does not play that much a part compared to the other characters. Because the 18th century assassin, Connor has his face hidden and barely talks, having Dominic to play him meant eh had to get the movements for the character right, and he was able to do this. To speak the way the assassin feels through movement. The modern day assassin, Darius, does have more speech and more taxing scenes, such as climbing and free running, Dominic was also a good choice because he was able to do most if not all of his stunts.

Bladen Cross

Bladen Cross is plays the second lead character, an enemy but earlier in the film an ally. I chosen Bladen to play this part because he was able to perform all his stunts and was able play his character well enough to make it realistically, he was also able to bring the character emotion as he is conflicted on which side he must fight on in the film.

Alexis Simmons

Alexis Simmons is the female lead in the 18th century setting of the film. She plays an ally of Connor, and was good for this part because she was able to perform her own stunts. Her acting is superb compared to other actresses when I was choosing the cast.
