VIRGINIA SHORT FILM CASTING WITH MAY 4 DEADLINE

Monday, May 04 2026

Richmond – Seeking Talent for Short Film – Dates TBD – Paid

NOTE – Self tapes are required for consideration.

SHORT FILM LOGLINE

When Joe is summoned to his ornery father’s senior living facility to deal with yet another embarrassing situation, a chance encounter at the in-house bar turns one exhausting afternoon into something unexpectedly cathartic — a dark comedy about aging parents, dutiful sons, and the absurdity in between.

 PROJECT DETAILS

Project Type: Short film

Genre / Tone: Dark comedy with heart. Character-driven. Tonally in the neighborhood of About Schmidt and The Holdovers.

Union Status: Non-Union (Non-SAG)

Compensation: $300/day per talent. Travel and lodging negotiable..

Shoot Dates: TBD

Shoot Location: Richmond VA

TALENT NEEDED:

JOE KEEGAN

Male • 40s • Open ethnicity • LEAD 

A white-collar everyman with a wife, two daughters, and a mortgage. Joe shows up for his aging father out of duty rather than affection — the closeness was never really there, and he stopped expecting it. Exhausted by the constant chaos but functional, he carries the film through dry humor, restraint, and quiet emotional honesty. The role lives in reaction. We need an actor who can be very still, very tired, and very funny all at once.

 BRAD

Male • 40s–50s • Open ethnicity • MAJOR SUPPORTING 

Joe’s unlikely bar companion and fellow traveler. Brad manages his own father’s chaos with dark humor and a bartender’s instinct to pour first, process later. Lively, expressive, charming, magnetic. The high school classmate who convinces you to skip class and go to the mall, and breaks into his parents’ liquor cabinet to get the party started. Probably works in sales for a fertilizer company and is loved by his customers. Big personality, big comedic chops. The engine of the script’s biggest scene.

 POPS KEEGAN

Male • Late 60s–late 70s • Open ethnicity • MAJOR SUPPORTING

Crusty, ornery, and allergic to vulnerability. Vietnam vet and widower who lost his anchor when his wife died and never found another way to say so. A provider, not a hugger. Physically unable to walk; needs assistance for everything, an indignity that only deepens his frustrations. He denies every accusation, dismisses every suggestion, and considers no one’s feelings but his own. Strong character actor who can do enormous work with grunts, scowls, and minimal dialogue, and make pure stubborn refusal feel both funny and human.

 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Self-tapes preferred by casting - you can click submit through your talent profile and we will send the sides needed, or you can email [email protected] if your profile isn't active yet.
