Introducing the characters

The characters in the film all have unique personalities, and although we've had to change our project into a trailer rather than a film opening, we've still kept some vital details that should help explain what kind of person they are.

Nathan Cole - The main character in our film, played by Matt Bailey


Nathan is the main protagonist of the film, a confident character with an increased Psychopathic tendency which he will use to manipulate other characters and turn them against each other. Nathan is intelligent, misleading and most definitely the "bad guy" in the our film. Nathan's thoughts can usually be illustrated through his monologues, where the audience get a taste of his rude and psychotic alter ego that he hides from other characters.

Pete Crowley - Nathan's main rival in our film, played by Haydn Macmaster



Pete is an arrogant and deadly character in our film. Pete is violent and will try to undermine Nathan at any opportunity he gets. Pete is described in Nathan's monologues as "Pete is a fool, an inbred cretin". Instead of finishing his description of Pete, Nathan is interrupted in his monologue by him, which only occurs for this character, showing the dominance of Pete in our film.

Eddie Goodman - Aspiring drug distributor, played by myself, Abdul Ashogbon


Originally, one of Eddie's sole purposes for our film was to provide some comic relief and add to the comedy side of our film. However, after changing to a trailer and deciding on characters going against each other, we decided to make Eddie's character a more serious player in the drug world. Make no mistake however, Eddie's already has numerous traits such as aggression and a large wealth of high end contacts.

Hao Zheng - The boss of our drug gang, played by Howard Kwok


Self assured and dangerous, Hao is a Chinese born drug lord who controls all the operations in our movie. Not when to sit back and watch, Hao is often showed taking matters into his own hands, through verbal abuse or violent aggression, underlining his authority. Hao's notorious eye patch and unpredictable behaviour helps keep him a fearsome character in out film.

Enzo Costa - Nathan's closest friend in the film, played by Sam Harvey


Enzo is the most laid back and sensible of the characters in our film. Cold and efficient, Enzo concentrates on getting the job done and attempting to avoid the endless drama that unfolds. Enzo's character is detailed in the script as sensible, although in the drug world, there's only so much "sensibleness" permissible
