THE BATMAN: Episode 1 & 2 Auditions (ACTORS
JL for Floyd Lawton (DEADSHOT)
Floyd Lawton is a focused hitman, much like the John Wick(s) and Agent 47(s) of the world. He's motivated to kill Batman by a want to save his daughter from cancer. While he may not know if chemotherapy will save her, he has to try.
PAYMENT WILL BE DISCUSSED IN THE AUDITION PROCESS.
Context: Floyd is speaking to Regina Sionis after failing to take out the Batman. He's hurt, and bruised after an explosion caused by a hot-headed Firefly.
"FLOYD:
(angered, injured)
It wasn't my fault! Everything would've gone according to plan if that bug didn't get in my way!"
Context: Floyd is speaking to a tied up Batman who has been kidnapped after being knocked out. Batman has only just woken up. This is mid-way into the conversation.
"FLOYD:
(turning to Batman, calm and cold)
A man like me does whatever it takes to ensure his family is protected. I know it's a cliché, but it really isn't personal. In another world, I probably would've been one of your biggest supporters. Unfortunately, and fortunately, you have to die, so that my only family doesn't slip away from me... But, I won't dwindle. Speeches are not really my forte."
This take on Floyd Lawton is much more of calm and calculated assassin. Trying to fill out a hit on Batman so that he may use the money to afford treatment for his daughter's chemotherapy.
Voice type: Somewhere around Ohio, Cincinnati. Calm, almost soothing in a way. Not ASMR soothing, just very collected, like this is a man who knows what he's doing, and always has a contingency.
