LEAD ROLE
Tae Kwon Donkey is the reluctant protagonist of the Tae Kwon Donkey Universe...a martial arts comic series blending absurd anthropomorphic action with emotional mythology, philosophy, and consequence.
Despite the ridiculous surface appearance of the world, Tae is emotionally sincere, introspective, conflicted, and spiritually exhausted. He is not a traditional heroic protagonist.
The ideal performance should balance:
This role should NOT sound:
Think:“A reluctant martial artist trapped inside an absurd mythological world.”
This is a recurring lead role with future trailer, motion comic, and promotional potential.
“Even if I fight every fight and win… we’ve already lost… what we’ve already lost.” (Introspective - recurring theme line for Tae Kwon Donkey)
“Speaking of saving it… how exactly are we supposed to stop the Claw and Order with a bunch of useless art? …So now we’re gonna kill them with poems?” (Demonstrating his sarcasm, quippiness, and reluctant energy)
“You are right, Crab… I’m just a lazy ass… and when I say ‘ass’… I mean… DONKEY!!!” (Beaten to a pulp...his come back moment...breaking out of his nature and finally having a big hero moment)
