[INTERNAL BULLETIN // ACCESS LEVEL: CAST DIRECTORY]

Subject: The Doors Are Closed. The Files Are Open.

---

CASTING STATUS: COMPLETE

CALLBACKS: CONCLUDED

EXPOSURE PHASE: INITIATED

---

To all those who entered the briefcase — and to those still wondering if they ever left it:

The Exchange Man casting window has officially closed. No more files will be opened. No more faces will be scanned. The search for George, Eve, Todd, Kara, Mr. Calloway, Deborah, and others has reached its strange and satisfying end.

Thank you to the dozens who auditioned, submitted tapes, and willingly subjected themselves to procedural ambiguity. Your curiosity, commitment, and beautifully unsteady certainty helped bring this surreal world to life.

This week, select cast members received their official transmission letters — role confirmations that doubled as warnings. The callbacks are complete. The roles are now fixed. Integration begins.

Each of you has been selected not only for your performance, but for your ability to exist within a system that doesn’t want to be understood. That makes you one of us.

Next Phase:

• Onboarding materials and form packets are being distributed.

• Controlled exposure begins shortly — expect subtle shifts.

• Your faces may appear. Your names may not.

• Production begins this fall.

If you’ve received a call, a file, or a folder — you’re already inside.

Welcome to the Exchange.

Your presence is confirmed. Your understanding is optional.

— The Exchange Man Production Office
