THIS IS NOT MY ACTOR! The Casting Tale of 'Long' in 'Till The World Ends'

In an unforgettable casting session for 'Till The World Ends', a gripping BL series from 2023, we faced an unusual dilemma: two actors named Knight, each with a distinct spelling and background. The role in question was 'Long', a character engulfed in darkness, tasked with a chilling mission over 13 days to eliminate Gus, Art, and Golf. Long, driven by a deep love for Joke, promises a departure from this world together, navigating a complex web of emotions and decisions.

Knight Phichayut Jamikorn, an unexpected choice due to his lack of acting experience, was selected for the role, embodying Long's dark depths with an intensity we hadn't dared hope for. This short film delves into the behind-the-scenes journey of how Knight, initially overlooked, became the soul of Long, turning a casting uncertainty into a celebrated triumph. 'Till The World Ends' is a series that explores love, promises, and the complexities of human nature, and this story of serendipitous casting adds another layer to its rich narrative. Join us in revisiting the moment a forgotten name became unforgettable, highlighting the beauty of unexpected outcomes in the world of storytelling.
