1.5 years ago, I was cast in an independent feature being shot here in Taiwan, after auditioning. I was offered a small speaking role, which is really all I wanted. The writer/director/producer was basically shooting the movie scene by scene over time on a shoestring budget, which I have no problem with. I knew they were filming, as I had seen various listings for the project over the months looking to cast other roles for the specific scenes being shot. But I was not contacted to do my 2 scenes. I assumed that either my role had been cut or I had been recast.
This week, the director sends me a message asking me if I would reaudition for the role I had already been cast for, saying that it had been so long that he wanted to see me audition again. But the silver lining was that he plans to shoot the scenes this character is in this month. So, I'm auditioning again for a role I thought I already had next week. Hopefully, I'm cast, for the second time, and the scenes actually get shot soon.
*Update: I got the role . . . again!

Ultimately, I got the role . . . again! The director said they plan to shoot the 1 scene I'm in before the end of the year, so hopefully that happens. And he paid me for the audition within 24 hours, so that's a win.

You're in the arena, you're making an impression, you're building good will and you're fostering relationships. I'd say you had already won. Doubly so for landing the role again. Congratulations, Terrence Sellers
