I Accidentally Became A Demon Bride
Stephan Ferreira for “The Collector”
Main villain, one long episode which will likely be broken in two parts with lots of dialogue. Potentially serial role down the line.
A demon disguised as a human. British accent, Baritone or bass, low and smooth like caramel. Cruel. Sadistic. Think like Black Jack Randall from Outlander. Comes off being totally reasonable and friendly in the beginning but slowly becomes an absolute monster. Also must be able to do villain/demon style monologuing and sounds. Highly erotic and uncomfortable dialogue. Psychologically taxing role. He doesn’t end up raping the main character but he comes awfully close and purposefully pulls on her trauma to toy with her. It’s rough.
THE COLLECTOR: (magnanimously) Welcome to my table! Girls! (Snaps) Get them a drink.
THE COLLECTOR: (reasonable, to Jack) How about we make a deal. (blows out smoke from his cigar into Anne’s face.) (Pause) Let me fuck your wife once, and I’ll tell you.
THE COLLECTOR: (calmly) Do you wish to make the first cut?… or shall I?
THE COLLECTOR: (growing increasingly cruel with each word, you know you’re playing with the main character’s past childhood trauma and vulnerability) (quietly) (breathes in deep) I can smell the fear on you. (Pause) (Even softer so only she can hear) You know, I take a lot of different forms. I’m what you’d call a shapeshifter. I don’t normally look like this…” (Pause) But I did this just for you.” (Pause) “Now be a good little girl and say: ‘‘fuck me please, daddy.’”
THE COLLECTOR: (low) I am you. (Pause) In a way. A creature from another world who fed on scraps of power and crawled my way to greatness. A sadist, a dreamer, and it seems - someone with a fondness for fucking with humans, however literally you want to take it. (Chuckle) (Pause) I have been watching you for a while, Jack Riddle, since your arrival to this universe, hoping we could join forces…
THE COLLECTOR: (cruel laugh) (Pause) Here, I’ll demonstrate. I’ll show you. You don’t need stupid flesh puppets. (Pause. He starts to kill his puppet girls one by one.) They’re just humans! (Pause) They’re pathetic. Useless. Mortals.
