Kazir took a look at the list of actresses and their information... Some of them didn't have their pictures which was a bit disappointing.
'... How can an actress apply for a job but hide her face or not put a picture in her resume at all?'
"Excuse me, some of the actresses didn't have pictures. Why is that?"
Kazir could easily identify the woman if he could see her image. After all, Kazir had a strong visual memory.
"About that, the casting director fucked up and accidentally destroyed some of the documents. What you see are copies of the originals, but the pictures are missing."
"I see..."
Kazir understood that this was a mistake and he was disappointed. He wanted to fire the casting director. However, he decided to take it calmly. People make mistakes after all.
He already fired his last casting director because of having sex with the agent so that his client could pass the audition. To make it worse, the actress didn't fit the criteria at all.
The next actress showed up and it was none other than Jessica Alba.
"Wait what?"
Not only Kazir but even Harold was confused. Jessica Alba was never written on the list, her resume was also not on the table.
"Hello, I'm Jessica Alba. I worked in Spy Kids, The Sleeping Dictionary, Honey, and many more. I'm here to audition for the role of Daenerys Targaryen." Jessica had her innocent smile.
"Wait a minute," Kazir stopped her introduction.
"I just want to make it clear. You auditioned for the role of Daenerys Targaryen and you passed the second round?"
"That's right," Jessica nodded.
"... Did your agent do something again?"
Last time, Jessica's agent had sex with the last casting director to get the actress pass the audition.
"Not that I know of." She replied.
"..."
Kazir leaned against his chair.
Jessica had tanned skin and she didn't fit the appearance of Daenerys Targaryen at all. Daenerys Targaryen was from the House Of Targaryen. They have pale white skin and white hair. Jessica didn't fit the criteria at all.
'What the fuck is happening here? Based on appearance alone, Jessica shouldn't pass the first round.'
He was not against Jessica. He knew that the actress built her status in the industry and participated in many movies. Jessica Alba could act. However, she was not the person Kazir was looking for.
"... You auditioned for the role of Daenerys Targaryen. Did you give us your resume?"
"Of course, I gave it to the casting director. It's actually three copies, with my pictures on them."
"..."
The casting director fucked up. This was the moment Kazir realized that he had to hire another casting director.
'The casting director is not that stupid. He probably received something from Jessica's agent.'
As for what it was, Kazir didn't care. The casting director made a lot of mistakes. He destroyed the documents and also let an actress who didn't meet the criteria pass the second round of auditions.
Kazir turned to Harold and the producer nodded. The two worked together for a long time and Harold knew what to do. It seemed that Harold had to start looking for a new casting director.
No offense to Salvatore Barlowe but the two casting directors he recommended were bad.
"Let's start the audition."
Since Jessica was here, they might as well continue the audition. But it was clear to Kazir that he was not interested at all. He just let the time pass.
Jessica realized that her chances of getting the role were nonexistent. Still, being professional, she did her job to the end. It was unfortunate that she won't have a chance to work with Kazir though.
Two more actresses auditioned and Kazir was getting frustrated. He couldn't find the person he was looking for.
Harold and the others already recommended Amy Adams to be Daenerys Targaryen but Kazir was still waiting for something. He didn't want to give his approval and the crew members could feel it. So they decided to continue the audition.
The next actress would be the last. If this actress was not the person Kazir was looking for, then he had to accept the reality.
...
...
...
Emilia Clarke was nervous, waiting for her name to be called. All of the actresses had their performance except her. She was the last on the list and she knew that her chances of getting the role were super low.
In the first place, this was her first time auditioning. She was new in Hollywood and she wanted to be an actress.
She didn't even have an agent. She was a freelancer.
The good news was that she passed the two rounds even though she was basically a newbie. Her acting talent was passable but her appearance fit the role so the casting director gave her a chance.
Still, almost everyone knew that Kazir wouldn't easily hire a nobody. Even Emilia Clarke understood that.
She just turned 18 years old and this was her first decision as an independent adult. She went to the United States to try her luck. Well, she won't lose anything for trying.
"Emilia Clarke, please go to the audition room."
"A- Alright." She stuttered.
She stood up and walked into the room, 9 people were sitting at the long table. A single camera was recording the audition.
"Hi, I'm Emilia Clarke--"
"You pass."
"I'm from Oxfordshire, England. I just turned 18 two months ago-- W- wait what?"
Emilia Clarke's mind stopped working when she heard approval from someone.
Not only Emilia, but the 8 people also looked at Kazir with surprise and confusion.
Kazir realized his mistake and coughed.
"Sorry, I blurted that out without thinking. Continue what you're doing, but I want you to wear white hair first."
"O- Okay." Emilia was a bit disappointed but she followed the instructions. A makeup artist helped her wear the white hair wig.
Once done, Kazir and the others nodded as they realized that the young actress fit the role, at least appearance-wise.
