Colin Firth (Karl Lindner)

I am going to cast Colin Firth as Karl Lindner. I have chosen this actor to play as Lindner because his physical appearance indicates the play's description of this character.  Lindner is a polite, caring, and quiet-looking white man on his middle ages, who is wearing a business suit. He is a chairman of the Clybourne Park Improvement Association, a sort of welcoming committee. He tries to tell Walter and his family in the nicest way possible that the white community they are trying to move into would like to pay for them to not live there. He explains that he likes when people sit down to talk to each other so that there are no problems. He probably thought that he would be able to  convince Walter and his family not to move because he was offering more money than they paid and was being friendly with them.  (p. 1065/6).
