Roles:

Simon (Lead Role )

Luca Felici (Supporting Role)
Male (26) Caucaisan
Upon first meeting Luca he appears to be nervous and unassuming. However, as a member of the notorious Felici family misjudging him as weak would lead to certain death. In fact, Luca is on an extremely dangerous mission, to bring down the leader of the Monrote family who has caused the blood of too many Felici.
Marco Monrote (Antagonist)
Male (40-50) Caucasian
Marco is the head of the notorious Monrote family and rules over the lawless streets of New York with a ruthless fist. The only thing bigger than his empire is his hatred for the Felici family and their hand in his cousin’s death. Marco will stop at nothing to avenge the blood of his family and see the Felicis burn.
Tiny Tim (Supporting Role)
Male (30-60) Caucasian
Tiny Tim is a towering shadow who makes any man look puny in comparison. His cold-blooded nature and terrifying physique propelled him through the mafia ranks and into becoming the personal bodyguard to the ruthless kingpin Marco Monrote. Rumor has it he has never smiled.
