The Nice Guys Character List

Holland March

Holland is a private detective. He is a single parent to his daughter, Holly March. He is also an alcoholic. He screws up everything he touches and nothing seems to go his way. Holland’s relationship with his daughter is very significant to him. When he forgets his Holly’s birthday, Holly isn’t surprised or disappointed. She loves her dad, but she doesn’t expect much from him. Holland is often neglectful of his responsibilities as a father and detective. This character is deeply flawed, which makes for a great comedic relief. Despite all this, he’s very assertive and in synch with his surroundings which makes him a great detective. Holland’s morality is undeniably questionable. He often cheats his clients into paying him to do a job that doesn’t require any investigation. Sometimes he gets the job done but sometimes he plays it off.

Holly March

Holly is Holland March’s daughter. She and her father have a somewhat relaxed relationship where they have more of a friendship than a father-daughter. Holly is super smart, independent of her father’s shortcomings and wise beyond her years. She carries herself more like an adult than a teenage girl. Holly also acts as Holland’s secretary for his private detective business. Holly is more of a parent to her father, Holland than he is to her. She pretty much does everything in the house.
