We pride ourselves on the fact we have a wide range of interesting characters, and while they mostly conform to expectations and archetypal roles - such as that of the cipher - there is still an element of intrigue regarding them. As Vladimir Propp set out there are several character types which serve various functions, which can be found in our trailer, for instance the hero, the villain, the donor, the princess and even the false hero (though this last is not entirely evident in the trailer). These identifiable characters set up a comfortable base from which the the audience can follow the narrative, and of course it is important in any action film that the action remain at the forefront so the issue of creating characters with great depth was not a priority, though it remained a consideration, as evident in the trailer.
