Synopsis/Details
Bill Haskell is the type of actor who aspired to be the next Brando but got stuck leading a popular yet critically reviled sitcom. Wishing to break free of his stereotyping, he gets cast in a serial killer biopic and puts everything into the role. Immersing himself deeper into the character as he contends with the doubt of his sit-com co-stars, a demanding director and an impending actors strike, Bill finds the line between himself and his performance increasingly blurred.

The Writer: George Anderson

I'm an aspiring filmmaker and screenwriter as well as a gaming YouTuber. In 2022, I release a no-budget feature documentary called Play for Views about gaming and YouTube starring me and some online friends. Although it didn't quite make as much of a splash as I hoped, I remain very proud of it! After I made that, I delved into the wild and wonderful world of screenwriting - I enjoy dabbling in a variety of genres, and enjoy the process of collaborating with other writers to bring a story to life.
