Chapter 112. A Risk Worth Taking?
The reason why Leo decided to do an audition with Harold was simple. A slight fear that the movie won't work at the box office with a lead that was not famous had gripped his heart.
Although many movies have worked at the box office without a famous lead actor, the number of movies which didn't work was much higher. And the difference had just increased in recent times.
