We’re seeking a talented white male actor, approximately 55–70 years old, to portray The Founder in All is Well, an ambitious, futuristic reimagining of the biblical story of Exodus. This pivotal role calls for an actor with extraordinary dramatic range, a commanding presence, and the ability to portray a brilliant, calculating, and deeply troubled ruler whose outward confidence conceals a mind haunted by fear, guilt, and recurring episodes of madness.

In this adaptation, The Founder is the powerful architect and ruler of The Empire, a privileged society built upon the oppression of those living in The Burg. Having risen to power through ruthless ambition and a belief in his own greatness, he struggles with mysterious psychological torment that only Moses, whom he raised alongside his own son Ramses, seems capable of calming. As his carefully constructed world begins to unravel, The Founder’s desperate attempts to maintain control reveal a complicated man torn between his affection for Moses, his obsession with power, and the terrifying possibility that forces greater than himself are at work.

This is an exceptionally challenging and emotionally layered role requiring an actor capable of portraying intelligence, menace, vulnerability, and moments of genuine humanity. We’re looking for someone who can bring unforgettable intensity and psychological depth to a character whose arrogance, inner demons, and tragic downfall set the stage for the extraordinary events of All is Well.

Note: Yes, I know who this looks like. That was actually AI’s suggestion, and I loved it.
