The next day I received the call from Constance Stone officially informing me I landed the role of John Bender, the rebel.
Monday we filmed the first read-through as a cast.

Back at the Shire after filming, Leah showed me the Us weekly magazine. A picture of Carrie, Andrew, and I, leaving the cafe.
The caption read: The Hit List's Carrie Sayer leaving hot spot Baba Bistro with friends Andrew Wyatt and Ryan Ash.
I could not stop looking at the picture and my name in print. Back and forth. Not believing my eyes. Carrie in a dark green shift dress, Converse sneakers, with Andrew's gray hoodie on top, and sunglasses. Andrew in jeans, sandals, white-t, black beanie, no sunglasses. I wore green Phoenix pants, a blue distressed T-shirt from Daniel, brown combat boots, sunglasses, and my dark brown messy hair was sticking out at every angle. We looked like a badass manga cartoon.
"Those green pants are sick," Leah said.
"His whole line is crazy-cool." I agreed, "It's like Sci-fi Luxury wear."
"Did you get some from the shoot?"
"Yeah I forgot, it's still in boxes."
Carrying the magazine we ran upstairs and began to pick through the boxes of Phoenix clothes.
