Note: For this character and anyone else with this note included, there may be only a very small role involved. These roles will have lines from the books, which are never voiced, because of this it would also then be ideal that the same voice actors replace the characters lines from in-game as well, so that within the film the audience can make the connection between the two. If voice actors can be successfully obtained for these characters I will be able to consider expanding the line selection from the book to encompass more of that story.


LANCE CORPORAL ROMEO [Voice Impression: Nolan North]: 

Official Depiction Overview [How he is presented in the canonical work]:

Romeo is the sarcastic smart-mouth of the group, he spends most of his time running his mouth and the rest of being told off. He does experience a rather humbling moment when he's near-fatally wounded later into the story, but all of the lines featuring in my film will be disconnected from that. As such, all you'll need to know is that he thinks he's a comedian, but nobody's laughing.


Our Depiction Overview [How he will be presented in our film]:

Many of the lines featured in the film will be borrowed from the game in order to refresh the audience on the events that took place. However, Romeo will also play a decent role in one of the later segments, since he's involved in a later mission involving rebel insurgents. In that section of the story a few of his lines do retain a little of that witty dry humour he's known for.


How He Sounds

His voice as it's depicted in the official media can be heard in its entirety in this video;

Romeo seems to have an average American accent, with a deeper register, although while his voice is deep the gruffness is not quite there, certainly not as much as Dutch. 

Ultimately though, I'm open to hear different interpretations of his character as well as attempts at matching his voice.

I look forward to hearing your auditions!!

Really great audition here too! You've got the depth in your voice that works nicely for Romeo. Will definitely consider you for this role as well.

For this one I will be listening out for others as well, but I would be happy with you playing this character as well if need be! Thanks again!
