Chapter 19 - Unveiling the Magic II

The next reporter turned toward Alice. "Alice, your character Alice is known for her curiosity and determination. How do you relate to her, and how do you bring those qualities to the screen?"

Alice smiled warmly. "Alice and I share a lot in common. It's not only our names but the way we both have a thirst for knowledge and a desire to explore new horizons. As for bringing those qualities to the screen, I draw on my own experiences and emotions. It's about making her journey feel genuine and relatable."

Another reporter turned toward Alexander. "Alexander, you play Soren Stormwind, a character with a mysterious and complex personality. How do you approach such a role, especially considering your age?"

Alexander leaned forward, his expression thoughtful. "Soren is definitely a challenge, but also a lot of fun. I've spent a lot of time diving into his backstory and motivations. It's like piecing together a puzzle, and with every scene, I get to explore a different facet of his character."

A third reporter addressed Emma, the actor portraying Evelyn. "Emma, you're stepping into the shoes of a character that readers have loved for years. How does it feel to bring Evelyn Thornbrook to life on the big screen?"

Emma's eyes lit up with enthusiasm. "It's honestly a dream come true. Evelyn is such a strong, adventurous character with a heart of gold. Being able to portray her and share her journey with the world is an incredible honor."

The moderator nodded, impressed by their responses. "It's clear that each of you has put a lot of thought and dedication into your roles. Now, tell us, what was the most exciting moment on set?"

Emma grinned, her eyes sparkling. "Oh, that's a tough one. But I'd say filming the scenes where the three of us—Evelyn, Soren, and Alice—come together. There's this dynamic energy that really brings the characters to life."

Alexander added, "For me, it was definitely when we filmed the magical duels. Seeing the special effects and stunts come together was incredibly exciting. It's like we were living out the epic battles from the books."

Alice nodded in agreement. "And for me, it was exploring the enchanted locations of Everwyn. The sets are so beautifully designed, and they transport you to this magical world. It's like stepping into the pages of the book."

The press conference continued, covering topics ranging from the magic of special effects to the challenges of portraying magical abilities. Each member of the cast showcased their unique charm, engaging with the reporters and offering insights into their experiences.

As the press conference drew to a close, the cast members shared a final round of smiles and nods, their unity and shared passion evident to everyone in the room. The reporters' questions had given them a platform to showcase not only the magic of the movie but also the dedication and heart they had poured into their roles.

As they left the stage, Alexander turned to Alice with a grin. "Well, that wasn't so bad, was it?"

Alice chuckled, her eyes twinkling. "Not at all. Just like magic, it's all about confidence and a bit of charm."

Soon Sakura joined them pulling the duo into a tight hug. "You guys were pretty cool up there."

"Thanks!"

"Thanks, Sakura."

Alice couldn't help her curiosity and asked. "How did we look from the audience?"

"Badass!"

Hearing her interpretation Emma couldn't help but laugh. " Alex, your calm and composed responses were pretty impressive."

"Thanks, Emma," Alexander replied with a modest smile. "I guess playing Soren's cool and collected personality has rubbed off on me a bit."

Alex then turned his attention to Alice. "And Alice, your enthusiasm really shone through. I think everyone could feel how much you love bringing your character to life."

Alice's cheeks tinged with a hint of blush. "Thanks, Alex. It's hard not to be enthusiastic when it feels like the character tailor is made for you"

As they made their way to a more relaxed setting backstage, they were greeted by the presence of their parents, who were watching the press conference with a mix of pride and excitement. Eleanor approached with open arms, pulling her into a warm hug.

"You were amazing up there, sweetheart," she said, her eyes shining with maternal pride.

Emma's father nodded in agreement. "All three of you handled those questions with maturity and confidence. We're so proud of you."

Katherine chimed in, her smile wide. "And to think that our kids are the stars of a major movie. It's truly a dream come true."

The parents exchanged congratulations and exchanged stories of their own experiences during the press conference. As they chatted, the director, David, approached them with a grin. "I have to say, your kids were incredible. Their responses were on point, and they handled the questions like seasoned professionals."

Eleanor chuckled. "It's hard to believe they're only thirteen. They really impressed us."

David nodded. "They're a talented bunch, no doubt about it. But beyond that, their camaraderie and chemistry off-screen also contribute to their on-screen magic."

As the press conference wrapped up and the excitement began to settle, the cast members looked at each other with a shared sense of accomplishment. Their journey had led them to this moment, where they had not only portrayed characters but had also navigated the intricacies of the movie industry. And just like the characters they brought to life, their own stories were still unfolding, with new adventures awaiting them.
