G.G

G.G is a fictional character played by Tristan Baxter in the 2018 film, Grim.

Grim is the second iteration of Gordon Grim that appears in the second act.

Development and Casting
The character was created by Fritz Bishop in his initial draft of a script for Grim, conceived as the most belligerent and unpredictable iteration of the protagonist. Both Mitch Murrant and James Rudderham were considered for the role while Tristan was originally cast to portray Grim. However, after multiple revisions lead Grim to be more charming and G.G became more aggressive, Tristan was ultimately cast in the role while James and Mitch would assume the other two iterations of the character.

Tristan was chosen for a lead role based on his multiple performances in Tar City projects, including Shaky in Bigsby and Tristan in Paul Bishop is Directing a Play.

G.G is considerably more aggressive and belligerent than any other iteration of the character, though he appears to be intoxicated for the majority of his time on-screen. G.G effectively alienates himself from Jamie and Jimmy Rots, his only apparent friends. He also takes to living in the dumpster graveyard after being abandoned by the documentary crew, presumably having nowhere else to stay after being banned from Jimmy's house.

G.G assumes the identity of Grim after a botched home invasion leads him to accidentally shoot and kill a child.
