Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 542 The Right Steps

Even though the sparks weren't particularly strong, Polly felt a sense of satisfaction with the progress.

A new script had emerged, offering Nolan the leading role in a film titled The Silent Whisper. The director had personally reached out to Nolan, inviting him to take on the male lead. Polly, who had a relaxed attitude, immediately instructed her team to get in touch with The Silent Whisper production about a possible collaboration.

After working together on Froze, she was eager to team up with Nolan once more.

As an experienced actress, Polly assumed that securing a role wouldn't be overly challenging unless the director had someone else in mind. However, it seemed that luck wasn't on her side this time.

The director's first choice for the female lead was Hattie.

Having been impressed by Hattie's performance in Firelight with Alaric, the director felt that Hattie was ideal for the role in The Silent Whisper.

Polly's hopes of a second collaboration with Nolan were dashed.

Hattie, who had never acted in a film before, was thrilled when the director approached her, especially since she would be starring alongside the renowned Nolan.

The Silent Whisper would tell the story of an unsuccessful painter who met her muse on the streets of Verdancia.

The painter was gentle and reserved, while her muse was a romantic wanderer.

This role was a new challenge for Nolan, and Hattie was also stepping into uncharted territory with this film.
