My Reelity

Got a call this evening from J, one of the rare few peeps over at the chinese drama casting department that has stayed on as long as I have in the business. She chided me for not returning her call after my colour wolf performance, and judging from her tone of her voice, I thought I have ended up in some kind of hot soup.

Just as I was trying to figure out why and when she called me, she must have heard the worry in my voice and know that I have fallen for her trick, hook line and sinker.

“I just want to tell you that they liked what you did for the scene and have upgraded you to A!”, she blurted out. “They were especially impressed with the fact that you could come up with the actions of your character for that particular scene on the spot without any direction.”

So 3 months after my previous bump, I’m no longer bearing the unbearable lightness of “B”‘ing”, but finally, much finally, I’m finally A (pun intended). Woot!! 😀

Like I’ve blogged before, this does not make me an “A lister”. And neither does getting the highest grade of A+ makes me an “A lister” as well. It does suggest better roles will be forthcoming, and I guess thats what matters.

But you know what, I’m just bemused that they would look over my performance with Anita Yuen and have seemingly preferred me leering at Fiona instead. I mean. not that I’m complaining about leering at Fiona of course … 😛

If I were to look at this positively, it would be that they preferred the comic over the bad guy. And if thats really the case, I can look forward to more comic roles in the future. Which would be great, cuz like I said before, I really miss doing comedy.
