Julie
Hello?
Skye
Hi. Julie?
Julie
Oh Skye. Thanks for calling
Skye
No problem. I'm sorry it took so long. My meeting ran over
Julie
Not to worry sweetie
Skye
So what can I do for you? I've got to say your message confused me a bit
Julie
I'm not surprised. I actually wanted to put something forward to you before I take it further
Skye
Oh, ok. What is it?
Julie
Have you got any long term jobs lined up from September onwards?
Skye
I've got a couple of fashion shoots confirmed and a make-up campaign to film. Nothing that will take more than a couple of days though. Why?
Julie
I can't promise it to you. I'd have to speak to the network heads, but I may have something for you. A role in TVD
Skye
Are you joking? This is Malarkey isn't it? He's getting you to Punk me
Julie
As entertaining as that would have been, no I'm being completely serious
Skye
Oh my gosh. But, why? Why me?
Julie
I already had an idea for a new character in the show. With Nina and Steven leaving next season it leaves room for a new regular.
Skye
Wait? What? It's a part for a regular?
Julie
I did ask if you had any long term jobs
Skye
Oh yeah you did. Sorry, I'm just freaking out a bit right now
Julie
That's ok honey. I get it. I know what a huge fan of the show you are
Skye
Yeah pretty huge
Julie
You love the show. The cast love you. The response I've seen on social media from fans wanting you on the show is overwhelming. Why don't we give them what they want?
Skye
I can't believe it
Julie
Maybe I should explain the part before we go any further
Skye
Good idea. Sorry if I seem too eager
Julie
Don't be silly. It's that mentality that the show thrives on
Skye
Very true
Julie
Ok, brief outline. The character we have in mind for you is someone that meets Damon and Bonnie after they disappear when the other side collapses. She becomes allied with them and tries to help them find their way back to Mystic Falls. Her brother who is also there, is set to be the main antagonist of the whole season. He basically makes life a living hell for not only the group but also his sister, you.
Skye
Oh my gosh. This sounds amazing
Julie
I can't really say any more than that for now
Skye
Oh, I totally understand. Are you sure I'm the right person though? Did Ian have something to do with this?
Julie
Other than myself and a couple of the producers nobody knows about me approaching you. Ian has no idea. I've seen a lot of your acting work over the past few weeks and you're amazing Skye. You know how important this show is to me. I wouldn't even consider you if I didn't think you were the right person
Skye
I can't believe this. I don't know what to say
Julie
Say you'll at least think about it? When I have the green light from you I'll contact the network and your agency and we can go from there
Skye
I don't need to think about it. I'd love to do this part. It would be a dream come true
Julie
Wonderful news. I'll get the ball rolling. Seriously Skye you are perfect for this part and I know the network will agree
Skye
I hope so. Julie?
Julie
Yep?
Skye
Could we keep this just between us until we have the go ahead? I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, especially Ian's. He's always going on about us not seeing each other enough. If he thinks there's a chance we'll be working full time together he'll go crazy
Julie
Awwww. Of course. It's our little secret
Skye
Thanks so much Julie
Julie
No problem sweetie. Look, I've got to go but I'll be in touch within the next week ok?
Skye
I'm waiting for your call already
Julie
Bye Skye. Talk to you soon
Skye
Bye. Take care
