Y/N

"Morning Harry," I yawned, stretching my arms up beside my head where the shirt I was wearing raised up above my ass. The shirt which was the same one Tom was wearing to dinner last night that I picked up off the floor to quickly put on before going to the kitchen.

"New shirt? Where'd you buy that one hm?" He joked, knowing obviously that a mens button up Prada shirt was not a part of my wardrobe.

"Shut up," I scoffed, taking two glasses out of the cupboard and filling them each with water for Tom and I.

"You know, you're both really lucky my bedroom isn't next to yours. That used to be Haz's room before he moved out with Grace," he chuckled, watching me shuffle back to the bedroom and try to push the door open without my hands; which I did so with my butt.

"So you didn't hear us! Perfect!" I grinned innocently before pushing the door closed again with my foot.

Tom and I have admittedly been having quite a few sexual encounters recently which is great to know Harry wasn't hearing. After Tom's Golden Globes anxiety attack, we focused on rectifying the insanely rushed round of sex, with more of an in depth and involved round of sex that same night. Especially since Tom did get a nomination for The Crowded Room.

We haven't been having sex like, a crazy amount of times in the past two weeks because I've been working and Tom has been, well, Tom does Tom things during the day. He usually works back to back on projects so until we start shooting my new film, he has had quite the period of free time that he's not used to.

He's been golfing a lot, he's been helping around his parents house with some handiwork, he made a guest appearance on his Dad's podcast, he's been playing guitar in the backyard and he's really been hitting the gym. He also decided he wants to do handstands for as long as he can handle. He gets these energy bursts where he must do a handstand and gets Harry or I to time them. It's quite odd at times.

But for the most part, he has preparing for his new role and been coming to a few meetings with Shane and I to discuss logistics of the film. We got him an executive producer credit, which quite a few actors fight for in their contracts and he's been pretty involved since. And when I say involved, he just gets overwhelmed at the table and zones out when we talk about the business side of things. He then chimes in when we talk about creative choices though.

We aren't at the creativity side of things yet, so after the first few meetings he decided to step away until the 'fun' stuff happened. It's cute how much he cares but man, this is not fun for him. Shane and I are working hour after hour on like one tiny paragraph of the script at a time just to get it right. And once we get on set it'll probably change anyway.

That's the reality of pre-production.

"You want a surprise?" I said handing him his water and crawling back into bed with him.

"Is it the same sort of surprise as last night and this morning?" He said jokingly with a hint of hope.

"Give yourself a rest boy! No, to do with the film," I laughed, scrolling through my emails to find the final cast list of actors we had completed contracts for, meaning they were 100% locked in now.

"Hit me with it, I usually hate surprises but I've been dying to know what you and Shane are doing every day," he smiled sleepily, sitting up against the headboard.

"Okay, are you ready? Here is, the final cast for the film... Mostly a British-based cast with a few exceptions although we can fit it into our budget... But the casting process is done and dusted," I grinned.

Tom smiled and gave me a drum roll with his hands smacking his legs underneath the bed covers, making me laugh before I put my hands over his to make him stop. I gave him my phone to read the email we had from the casting director.

NICHOLAS | Tom Holland
Nick is the 'twenty-something' lead character who is invited to his new girlfriends weekend trip away. He is prone to over-thinking and he knows it, so when he starts connecting the dots in his own wild conspiracies, he immediately dismisses them as symptoms of his classic anxiety. But maybe he's right about them. Growing up over a decade later to be a motivational speaker in the early days of Ted talks, he tells various city of his stories about cult behaviour and his experience trying to escape, if he did ever escape that is.

ANDREA | Ella-Rae Smith
The girlfriend of Nick and the eldest daughter in the family. Unbeknownst to Nick initially, is that Andi isn't related to any of her 'family' except for Kenneth; given she is a part of a new-age cult. She is however, the only one who was born into this life. The rest of the family joined themselves. Her intentions in bringing Nick to her family getaway, is to hopefully convert him into joining them, believing that he is her 'twin flame'. Her family are strong believers of a Higher Power who communicates to them via the effects of a hallucinogenic acid-like drug that makes them uncover the 'true' needs of the human race, mostly centred around cannibalism.

KENNETH | Jesse Plemons
Quiet, brooding father of Andi is a widow to her real mother. When he was tangled up in teenage pregnancy with Andi's mother, he was brought into the cult and converted as one of their own. Tragically, Andi's mother passed during childbirth which meant two things: Kenneth had to raise his daughter alone, and he was served his freshly dead wife's body for dinner that night. He still lives with that trauma today, although the Higher Power trusts that it was meant to be. His tactic to keeping secrets, is to stay quiet as much as possible.

CHRISTINE | Lena Headey
Andi's fiery, bold 'aunt' is one of the most ambitious and determined women you will ever meet. Daunting to most that meet her, she has a charismatic silver tongue that can convince almost anyone to do almost anything. She and her submissive husband Seok have three adopted children under the age of 7, all from varying nationalities and races; Diego, Haru and Xiomara.

SEOK | Wi-Ha Joon
Husband to Christine and 'uncle' of Andi, Seok speaks merely a word of English. A Korean native, he joined the cult in order to be with his one true love, Christine. It appears that nobody can effectively communicate with him except for Christine, although she doesn't speak Korean...

BRYAN | James McAvoy
Andi's boisterous 'uncle' Bryan is always the one bringing a little humour to the table thanks to his chronic alcoholism and blunt way of speaking. If he isn't cracking jokes at the expense of his 'siblings' or his two 'children', he is teetering along the line of exposing the cults entire charade in front of Nicholas. Perhaps, he is trying to warn the young boy what not to get involved in...

MARCUS | Alex Lawther
Son of Bryan and Andi's favourite cousin is a little bit of an odd young man. He and his 'sister' are a strange duo, both of them doing things siblings wouldn't be caught dead doing. They live in a moral grey area. He enjoys long walks through town at the dead of night, he goes to bars where people his age would never be seen at and he watches porn as satirical entertainment rather than arousal. His favourite category? How about you guess.

APRIL | Y/N L/N
April doesn't look like her 'brother' nor her 'father', but she insists she looks like her 'mother' who just so happened to bail from the family trip last minute. April is inseparable from her 'brother' though, so much so that people often mistake them as a couple. They sometimes sleep in the same bed, they sometimes feed each other, they sometimes even share the same shower. They don't see the harm in it though. When people see these weird behaviours however, April finds joy in their reactions. That's her favourite past time; "mind fucking people". Maybe that's why she's so interested in her cousins new boyfriend Nick...

DOUGLAS | Michael Caine
The eldest of the family, is Granddad Doug, 'father' of Christine, Bryan and Andi's deceased mother. He's a stern old chap who wishes nothing more than his family to embrace Andi's new boyfriend as one of their own. He knows his family have some unorthodox ways of living but he is sure there's a place for Nick somewhere. With enough hallucinations, he will be converted for sure; addicted to the cult lifestyle.
