Northern Promises

Seth, thank you so much for taking the meeting. Honestly, we were surprised you reached out for a soap opera of all things. [chuckles] Well, these days, if a project has anything to do with TV, I'm pretty much going to find a way to be attached as an executive producer. Well, we're hyped you're getting back to your Canadian roots and helping out a small up-and-coming Canadian studio. It's what it's all aboot, as they say. Oot. [laughing] Okay. Amazing. So you're thinking EP, but obviously not in it, right? No. That's not obvious to me. I'm obviously going to make some cameo appearances. Okay. Who were you thinking on playing? I thought Maxwell's evil twin brother, Lex, would be a good fit. But you don't look anything like the actor playing Maxwell. We were just going to have him play- Note taken. Good note. I suppose I'd play both parts then. Right. So we'll probably have to have you screen test with the lead actress to ensure there will be chemistry. I'm picking up on what you're putting out. Good. So we'll arrange a reading to see if you'd be a good- Obviously, I'm going to have to play her, too. [laughing] Obviously. [gentle music] We shouldn't do this. What if Maxwell finds out? Don't worry about Maxwell. I can handle him. [lips smacking] What is this betrayal? [fire whooshing] [both laughing]
