![The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]](https://idrive.wunovel.com/at-global/cover/67f78ebcfcf88956c80a1a96.jpg?time=1744277180579)
IN the Silverlight Cinema – the biggest cinema in the capital star with about 30 theaters – a movie premier was being held. It’s in one of the theaters that offered the 5D version of the movie.
Movie premiers were usually held in 5D theaters. Because the invited media had to see the reaction of the audience in real-time to write their articles and stuff. They couldn’t exactly have that in VR theaters.
The movie premier happening right now was that of [The Sleeping God] – the newest movie made by Daniel Trevane. Because of the director’s fame, as well as most of the cast being in the top 100 of the current Star List, the movie was receiving a lot of attention.
Last week, the official [Cybernet] account of [The Sleeping God] released a raffle in which 100 winners would be randomly selected. These winners would be invited to the premier. And now they’re here, sitting excitedly on their seats.
How could they not be excited when they would be watching this movie with the cast and crew of [The Sleeping God]?
That’s usually the case in movie premiers. Especially for a commercial movie like this. There’s an interview first with the director and the cast. After that would be the actual showing.
The media invited were reporters, movie critics, as well as vloggers. Some of them were genuinely very excited to watch the movie. While others were simply there to write an article, hoping that at least something gossip worthy would happen.
Kristin Kirkwood – one of the movie critics invited – was neither one of the two. She’s neither excited nor looking for gossip. She was simply there to watch a movie and write a review after.
Since this was a fantasy movie from Director Trevane, it would definitely be filled with action, amazing CGs, and the director’s own brand of humor. It’s the blueprint for every Trevane movie. Truthfully, if one watched his movie one after another, no matter how good of a quality it was, it would only feel stale.
That’s why she’s not that excited for this movie. Because she already knew what to expect. She would like it though if something in this movie surprised her. A surprise was always welcome.
Soon, the emcee for this premier welcomed the director and the cast. The first to enter was Director Trevane, followed by Stephen Tomlinson, Sienna Rose, Lauren Watts, Miria Lance, and others.
The theater erupted into cheers once they entered and walked to the make-shift stage. They sat one by one on the stools provided to them.
“Wow. Everyone looks amazing,” the emcee first started. “It seems you all dolled up for this premier.”
“Of course, we don’t want Director Trevane to scold us if we came here looking like we haven’t bathed for two days,” Lauren said in an exaggerated manner.
“Don’t worry, I won’t scold you. I just won’t allow you to enter the theater,” the director said in a dry tone.
Everyone in the theater laughed because of their banter, completely lighting up the mood.
The emcee also chuckled. “Then, shall the director say some introduction about the movie before we proceed to the interview?”
“This movie is classic fantasy adventure about a group of people fighting for what they believed in,” Director Trevane said. “Through their adventures, they struggled, fought together, grieved, and grow. It probably couldn’t be as straightforward as that.”
Everyone chuckled at the director’s playful tone.
“Okay, after hearing such a helpful opinion from our dear director, let’s proceed to the interview, shall we?”
After the emcee said that, several person sitting at the front seats raised their hands.
“Yes, that friend over there,” the emcee said, gesturing to one of the reporters. “What’s your question?”
“Can you tell us what’s special about this movie compared to your other ones?”
“Well, let’s just say some things are not what they seem,” Director Trevane said mysteriously.
Some reporters follow up on that but the director dodged them by saying that it’s a spoiler.
“A question for Lauren,” one of the reporters said. “Did you get close to anyone during your shooting of this movie? Miss Lane for example?”
Lauren felt a tick at the corner of his mouth when he heard that question. Seriously, could these reporters be any more original? They hadn’t written a scandal about him for quite a while. So, now they’re looking for gossip here?
He smiled mischievously before turning to Miria who was sitting beside him. “Are we close?”
“With my knowledge, I can barely call you a ‘friend’,” Miria quipped back.
Lauren turned back to the reporter who asked him. “That’s your answer right there,” he said with the same playful smile.
Laughter erupted in the theater once again.
The interview then continued. After a couple more questions, the emcee ended the interview. To tie it up nicely, he asked the director and the cast to give a message to everyone before the movie started.
“Well, all I have to say is enjoy the movie,” Director Trevane said and then added, “And to the critics here, do give the movie a good review.”
The way he said it wasn’t really offending. Mainly because everyone here knew that the other was only joking.
“We all worked really hard on this movie. So, I hope everyone here will love it just as much as we do,” Stephen Tomlinson – the male lead – said with a slightly more serious tone. At least compared to the director.
The others also gave their messages. Almost all were in line with what Stephen Tomlinson said. When it was Lauren’s turn, what he said was completely different.
“There’s one performance in this movie that will definitely take you by surprise. That’s all I will say,” Lauren said with a smile.
That completely aroused the curiosity of the people in the theater. Not only the fans, but the reporters as well.
It was the same for Kristin Kirkwood.
With what Director Trevane said earlier, then add to what Lauren Watts said just now, she couldn’t help but have a much higher expectations than normal.
And with that, the movie finally began.
