Okay, I convinced my friend's agent to call up the casting director for Airborn. She talked to him, and came back to me with some good news and bad news. The good news is that the part of Kate de Vries has NOT been cast yet. The bad news is that the casting director said that he probably won't cast an unknown (a film industry term for an actor who has not been in any major films and will not be recognized by an audience.) He said the chance of of an unknown blowing him away enough to cast her was slim. Generally, he was saying it was all on a "don't call us, we'll call you" basis. So probably none of us are gonna end up on the big screen in that movie. Sorry guys; I'm just as disappointed as your are.  |

I figured as much. To bad to all those people who wanted to be Kate [which wasn't me!]. How did they get the audition # anyway?
So Liam IS in?

I didn't ask about that, since I was assuming he was already going to be in it. (Because so may websites, not just imdb, have declared that he will)

Agents have access to like, all of the castings out there. Their job is to determine which casting they actually think you would land. This is just a theory, but I bet they have some sort of online bulletin for all of the big-time motion pictures... |

Okay, since there are still so many questions buzzing around, I decided to ask her some more, such as "How likely is it that the Casting Director will cast an unknown?" "What kind of girl are they looking for to play Kate (physical apprearance, personality, etc.)" "Is Liam Aiken going to be Matt in the movie?" ...and so forth. There were, like, two questions similar that I asked her but I can't remember.  Oh yeah, and she won't tell me where agents get all of their info. She said it's confidential. =/ |

I'm gonna guess and say not likely This one is all in the books, but if they are looking for something else, that would be good to know I'll say a 50% chance for this. It's been on IMDB.com for about 2 months. As it's been causing such a frenzy, his agent would have taken it off by now [although they might have changed his picture as well so they might not be aware of the Airborn thing still] THANKS SO MUCH FOR FINDING THIS STUFF OUT! It will put a lot of rumors to ease, although where Liam is concerned, I OBVIOUSLY HOPE that that part is true. When you do find out about Liam, it would be great if we could have the casting directors name so we know exactly where it came from Did you say you were finding this out on behalf of Liam Aiken Web? |

Yeah, I'm finding it out to stop or possibly confirm rumors, and for the benefit or LAW. But personally, I am dying to know as well. =3 I would LOVE to see Liam in Airborn, and now that I've thought about it, I can't even imagine any other actor as Matt!  As for the CD's name, I'll ask what it is. *hopes Sahyid remembered it* |

I know it's a little weird, me being a guy on this site. But I registered to ask you, Kakaiyu, a question. I've been researching the movie Airborn, and want to audition for (if Liam Aiken is a rumor) Matt Cruse, or Bruce (more likely) and you apparently have a contact with the Casting Director. I only am asking if you know his name or if you can find out for me, please ^_^ Please e-mail it to me- TriggerHaven@gmail.com Thank you Thank you Thank you (bow), Andrew Collie www.xanga.com/triggerhaven |
