Chapter 102 - THE OTHER CAST MEMBERS

THE ones who just arrived were the four main cast who were in this scene with Astrid.  The male lead, the second male lead, the third male lead, and the female lead.  These four comprised the group of people in the movie who went on a journey to find the missing god and awaken him.

You asked why the second female lead was not here?  Well, apparently, she's just a decoration that was just there to promote the feelings between the male and female lead.  She wasn't even part of the 'adventure group'.

Anyway, the first one to arrive were the second and third male lead.  Shortly followed by the male and female lead.  All of them were already in their costumes.  The second male lead in his magician robe, the third male lead who was built like a tank and dressed like a knight, the female lead in a white robe like a saint, and the male lead dressed in all black like the mercenary that he was.

While reading the script last night, he also took a look at the information of these four.  Because they were the ones he had to act with the most.  The four were all in the top 100 in the Star List.  The male lead – Stephen Tomlinson – was even in the top 50.  In short, he was the one with the highest status in the movie's cast.

He did have the look of a star – tall, well-built, and handsome.  Actually, all of them were extremely good-looking.  Especially the female lead.  She was tall and willowy with long strawberry blond hair and a pair of soft baby blue eyes.  Despite having a model like body, she still looked quite delicate.

Which was hardly a surprise considering how almost every human in this era had good looks. But because everyone was pretty and handsome, if you're just a normal pretty or handsome – you know, those who were good-looking but not striking enough or didn't have any defining features - people would simply think that they were plain.

Really, what skewed aesthetics.

Seeing that all four were very prompt, Astrid hoped that they were all professionals and none of them would cause him any drama.

"Good, all of you are here," Director Trevane said when the four approached them.  "Look, we finally found our 'Aether'.  Don't you think my vision is very on point?"

As the director said that, he gestured to the black-haired teenager standing beside him.  The expression on his face looked like he was asking them, 'look at the person I chose, he's perfect, right?'.  It was obvious to all that he was in a very good mood.  How dare they say anything negative?

The people in the crew had been walking on thin ice these past few days because Director Trevane was in a bad mood.  It was due to the fact that he hadn't found the right person to play the god 'Aether'.  Especially since their filming was close to an end.

Now that he finally found someone who matched his requirement, there's no way people in the crew would make trouble.  Even the four stars who arrived understood that.  The director might seem approachable and friendly but if he was put into a bad mood, especially during filming, he could be a real grinch.

Astrid looked at the four people and took the initiative to say hello.  He smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Astrid Townsend.  It's an honor to work with all of you."

The four was a bit shocked when they saw the black-haired teenager the first time.  After all, it's not everyday one could see someone with both black hair and eye color.  But the quickly got over it.  All of them were no longer young and impetuous.  They were all almost a generation higher than the teenager.

They weren't immature enough to purposely humiliate a newcomer in the off-chance that they found him annoying or unpleasant.  They already passed that stage where they could be jealous at everyone and everything that was better than them at one thing or another.

Of course, not all older artists were like this.  There were still a lot of unreasonable persons in the industry.  It just so happened that Director Trevane usually casted actors and actresses with good tempers.  Probably because the old director also didn't want too much drama in his set.

The four greeted the teenager with enough friendliness.

The female lead – Sienna Rose – felt like her old mother's heart was just hit.  The teenager in front of her was not that tall compared to other men.  In fact, they were just the same height.  He looked so pretty that she just wanted to hug him up like a big baby.  And seeing his good attitude, her impression of him improved even more.

"Astrid, right?  Could this be your first time filming?" she asked.

After all, with the teenager's looks, they should have long heard of him if this wasn't his first role.  But since this was obviously the first time they all saw him, it's safe to assume that this was he was a newcomer.

"Yes, Miss Sienna," Astrid said with just the right amount of respect in his tone.  Not overly done like he was simping on her or less that he would appear arrogant.

Sienna nodded, liking his attitude.  "Stop with the miss, just call me Sister," she said first.  "If you encounter any problems during filming, this sister will help you."

The male lead – Stephen chuckled seeing how enthusiastic Sienna was.  "Careful, you might scare the newbie."

Sienna snorted at Stephen's comment.  "How can I be scary?"  She turned to the teenager.  "Astrid is not scared of me, right?"

Astrid smiled.  "No, Sister is very cute."

The way the other easily called her 'Sister' made Sienna's heart melt.  Because it seemed like they had really been brother and sisters for a long time.  She nodded in appreciation.  "You have good vision."

Astrid secretly felt relieved.  Because it seemed like these four he would be working with the most all had good tempers.  Not only him, but also Reas who was observing everyone at the side.  The four didn't look at his brother in any weird way and they also had good attitude.  His hanging heart finally settled down.

"Okay, you five, let's start the filming for today," the director said, clapping his hands to get their attention.

And so, Astrid's first filming in this life began.
