Hair:Black
Eyes:Dark brown

Appearance: Standing tall at 6'2", Lee maintains a fit, athletic physique required of his modeling career. His hair is cut medium length textured and is almost always messy in appearance yet 'fits his roguely handsome face' as one popular magazine once wrote. Honestly, he doesn't care what hairstyle he sports just as long as it satisfies photographers and specifically, the directors and writers that he works with. His dark brown eyes are expressive, often times twinkling with some sort of mischief. Onscreen, he excels in the dramatic, tortured soul look. When it comes to oufits, he loves wearing laid back, comfortable clothes when off the set. On set, he basically wears whatever the costume design department dictates.

The Story
"Cut! And that's a wrap. Good job everyone," the Director called out and the studio erupted in cheers. Clapping his hands along with the rest of the cast and crew, the white haired director walked on set and gazed thoughtfully at his young cast who were laughing, congratulating and hugging each other. For the past two years they have been together through all kinds of trials and tribulations--from happiness to frustrations, from slow days to days which seemed like all the things that could possibly go wrong DID go wrong. They were one big family. And now that it was all over, he felt both relieved and sad. He cleared his throat loudly and as soon as he got all of their attention, he opened his arms wide.
"I set you free, my young ones," he announced jokingly. There was instantaneous laughter and soon, the silver haired director found himself engulfed in a huge hug. He immediately felt his eyes mist.
After receiving several 'we're gonna miss you's' and 'til the next project's' in between hugs and handshakes, the old man turned away, unwilling to let anyone see how it affected him. He lifted a hand to dash away the tear that threatened to roll down his cheek.
"I knew you'd eventually break down despite being a slave driver these two years, old man," came a voice behind the director.
A loud guffaw erupted from the director as he turned around.
"Ethan Walsh. Always the hardheaded of them all but also the easiest to work with," he commented as he stepped forward and hugged the younger male.
Lee, still with make up on and looking convincingly like he had just been beaten up, grinned and returned the hug.
"This was two years in the making, sir, and I've enjoyed every second of it," he said.
"Yes, so did I, contrary to popular belief," he chuckled and gave Lee several pats on the back before releasing him.
"Everything paid off. And I believe we made good time to vie for the Academy Awards," he commented with an confident smile.
"Under your leadership, I doubt we'd be left behind," Lee responded with a nod.
"A smooth talker too, I see," the director chuckled again.
"Well, I look forward to working with you again.""Likewise, sir." Lee responded right before his co-stars dragged him back to their small celebration on set. A small plastic cup filled with what looked like orange soda was shoved into his hand.
"Tell me you'll be attending the after party later, Ethan," Amanda, the lead female, asked.
"I'm not so sure, Mands. Maybe. Though I doubt it," Lee replied earning him a chorus of groans. The dark haired actor sighed as he checked his phone. Surely enough, there were several text messages from his manager reminding him of his busy schedule.
โI have...โโDonโt tell me. You have a TV interview at 6, magazine interview at 7, photoshoot at 8, hmmm... then an audition at 10. Am I missing anything else?" Amanda shook her head.
"You are, without a doubt, a workaholic in its truest sense. Ever heard of rest and relaxation? You know, that thing where you put your feet up and take a breather? Parties, quiet nights at home, a movie out with friends...though I doubt youโd really want to see yourself in the big screen,โ Amanda chuckled.
โHeck, for fun, you can even try that TAP thing. My sister tried it last year and she's been gushing about having met the man of her dreams. She's been bugging us to fly over to her place to meet him."TAP. The Aristophane Project. He's heard of it before but never really thought much about it. He was far too busy. But now that it was mentioned, it didn't sound so bad. A sabbatical with something fun and outrageous to do sounded really tempting...
