How is that harder than the "good guy" being the main character?  You've written lots of stories before so it's not like you're new to creating characters.

It's not necessarily harder, but it's not the sort of thing I'd like to do for a first film.

Why?  Sorry, just curious.

I'd like my first film to have a simpler "format" than making the main character the bad guy.

What if the main character was a drug dealer?

Am I the only one thinking about Breaking Bad here?

But isn't that in itself slightly cliche?

No more than all the other films that have the good guy as the main character.  tongue

Nope.  My parents watch it and that came to mind when I suggested that.

2. Fast Five
3. Death Race
