The Medical Practitioner plays a supporting role in the story. She works within a discreet, highly organized underground network that distributes and monitors the effects of illegal substances. She presents a calm, clinical presence, similar to a nurse or therapist—polished, modern, and emotionally composed.
She is deeply loyal to her organization and highly curious about her work, sometimes at the expense of those she monitors. She conducts probing, sometimes unsettling follow-up interviews with patients—always professional, but emotionally detached. Her soothing demeanor puts people at ease, even as her loyalty remains firmly with the system she serves.
We’re looking for an actor with quiet intensity, emotional control, and the ability to suggest a layered inner life—someone who appears compassionate but is ultimately driven by institutional priorities.
