A Situation Design for Hamlet VS Claudius

I am not talking about a sword fight here...
Basically my project involves analysis of different characters and how they would be conveyed in a 21st Century (a global world) situations. I set them as two contrasting salary men, so this is an outline of how those two would look like

Situation one (Hamlet & Claudius)

1. Contrast!

A. A smart but depressed salary man (Hamlet) but is careless about his work, and more concerned about meaning of life and etc. (finding his love…etc)

i. Drinks a lot and depressed

1. Reminisces about his dead friend too much

ii. A great potential for being successful but is not really trying or willing to

iii. Messy room

B. A very successful boss who would do ANYTHING to succeed

i. Illegal interactions with others for his social/economic success

ii. Afraid that the depressed one(Hamlet) could be successful

1. A little paranoid about leaving any evidence of his wrong doings

iii. Manipulates him into worrying about his life more

1. Drink with him and makes him more concerned
