Character Plan (Antagonist 1)

Costume

- Dressed very informally, not high up on the criminal ladder.
- A leather jacket with T shirt and jeans, very inconspicuous, you wouldn't spot him in a crowd.
- Dressed in a similar fashion to Matt Damon and Jeremy Renner in the Bourne films, Christopher Ecclestone in 'Doctor Who' or Daniel Mays in 'Shifty'.



Character

- This is a somewhat arrogant character, and is very pleased with himself and his position as a sort of medium importance criminal. He has delusions of grandeur and fancies himself as untouchable. This is untrue and he knows it, so he is a little on edge and nervous as he walks down the alley.
- Some influences might be Badger from 'Firefly', for his sense of self importance and pride in his criminal position, and Arnold Flass from 'Batman Begins', for his true pathetic nature and cowardice in the face of vigilantism or being brought to justice.

Casting

- For this character the actor will need to be perhaps not particularly intimidating, but be able to play someone who believes them self to be. There is little requirement in terms of physical appearance, provided that the cast actor is decent. In this respect we hope to rely on quality of acting rather than obvious physical power, although the character could perhaps be a bit of a bully to those he sees as lesser than him.
