5 roles

AMOS MORGANMale8-12 y.o.Latino / Hispanic White / Caucasian Asian

A boy whose round face is the first thing you notice about him. Although his face reflects how quickly he has had to grow up throughout his life, under a mop of shaggy hair, his eyes hold a childlike glimmer of curiosity that is never stifled. He holds a confidence in his mannerisms that reflects not self-confidence, but instead a hard shell layered on top of a soft boy who deeply wants to understand how people work and why they do the things they do.

JOHN THE ALTAR BOYMale8-12 y.o.All ethnicities

An oddly short boy for his age, he has always been mistaken for younger than he is. His appearance reflects the well-cared-for household he grew up in. He isn't a rebel, not because of rebellious tendencies but instead because his parents trust him and he can snake. his way out of trouble through his puppy eyes and innocent face. He is unapologetic, unafraid to make mistakes or embarrass himself because of the judgment he has been sheltered from throughout his life.
