I just have a broad idea here to play a US president having an affair. I don't know what I want for the other character. Could be an assistant/intern, a high priced escort, or maybe even some kind of celebrity his people bring in. Also not sure what I want for the endgame, as in whether they get exposed or what ends up happening.
I thought I would leave the actual politics out of it as much as possible. I wanted MC to be a fairly straightlaced guy, somewhat like an old-fashioned Republican just for the contrast, but it's not realistic that someone like that would actually be president today so I just won't get into the specific politics. Or it could be set a little earlier than now.
The dynamic here would be that it's an enormous release of stress for him, and maybe his actual wife has become disinterested in sex since getting older. A lot of snooping around at the White House and maybe he takes her to Camp David for a brief period one time so they can have a little privacy. Maybe there can be a couple storylines with big crises going on and she slips away to help him unwind when he has a free moment. For MC's appearance I thought he would be a somewhat normal middle aged guy, just tall with a good head of hair and not fat or anything. Just the standard "movie president" look, not like a movie star or anything.
PM if interested.
