I am this cool in my head. Classic Molly. From over 30 years ago. |
When I was planning the story of Leeza McAuliffe three years ago, I decided that present day Molly Ringwald would be the ideal image to have as Leeza'a mum. Then, just to seal the deal, I called Leeza's mum, Molly. I am a creative genius! I did this with all the main characters. I found someone real that I could keep in my head as I wrote their words and worked out their voice. Seeing Molly Ringwald pop up out of the blue was a surreal moment. It was like my book had been secretly dramatised and no one had told me.
So, as part of my policy of IF IT'S IN MY HEAD I MUST SHARE IT ONLINE, here are my go to actors for some of the cast of Leeza McAuliffe Has Something To Say, coming to Netflix this autumn*. (Ha, can you even imagine!)
Molly Hart-McAuliffe
(Mum)
Seb McAuliffe - aka Mac
(Dad)
Spike
Ursula Hart
(Grandma)
Willard
Jake Woolton
You know you're intrigued. Come on, get involved! |
I did cover the bulk of this post on a Twitter thread a little while ago. It amused me, anyway. |
Have a lovely week, folks.
*It is not coming to Netflix this autumn.
