Hey guy today I wrote a movie but the interesting part is the names of the actors. Most of the actors names in this movie script are old time members on this platform. Before you start you reading or let me start watching this video (ofcus you all no the it isn't a video just a manual script) I need to share with you my actor name and the roll the play. ( Also sorry I was unable to bold allthe actors name: I was late for class - had class this morning) . Read.cash Original Movie Script.

happy Reading

@Telesfor has Teles For. @MarcDeMesel has Marcde Mesel. @ancient.stone has Ancient. @Cain and @quest has cain.

So let being.

Movie being

Energetic computer programmer DI MARCDE MESEL is arguing with kind teacher MASTER TELESFOR. MARCDE tries to hug TELES but he shakes him off.

MARCDE

Please Teles, don't leave me.

TELES

I'm sorry Marcde, but I'm looking for somebody a bit more brave. Somebody who faces his fears head on, instead of running away.

MARCDE

I am such a person!

TELES frowns.

TELES

I'm sorry, Marcde. I just don't feel excited by this relationship anymore.

TELES leaves.

MARCDE sits down, looking defeated.

Moments later, optimistic swordsman PROF ANCIENT STONE barges in looking flustered.

MARCDE

Goodness, Ancient! Is everything okay?

ANCIENT

I'm afraid not.

MARCDE

What is it? Don't keep me in suspense...

ANCIENT

It's ... a lion ... I saw an evil lion attack a bunch of swimmers!

MARCDE

Defenseless swimmers?

ANCIENT

Yes, defenseless swimmers!

MARCDE

Bloomin' heck, Ancient! We've got to do something.

ANCIENT

I agree, but I wouldn't know where to start.

MARCDE

You can start by telling me where this happened.

ANCIENT

I was...

ANCIENT fans himself and begins to wheeze.

MARCDE

Focus Ancient, focus! Where did it happen?

ANCIENT

Sydney Opera House! That's right - Sydney Opera House!

MARCDE springs up and begins to run.

EXT. A ROAD - CONTINUOUS

MARCDE rushes along the street, followed by ANCIENT. They take a short cut through some back gardens, jumping fences along the way.

INT. SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE - SHORTLY AFTER

CAIN QUEST a creepy lion terrorises two swimmers.

MARCDE, closely followed by ANCIENT, rushes towards CAIN, but suddenly stops in his tracks.

ANCIENT

What is is? What's the matter?

MARCDE

That's not just any old lion, that's Cain Quest!

ANCIENT

Who's Cain Quest?

MARCDE

Who's Cain Quest? Who's Cain Quest? Only the most creepy lion in the universe!

ANCIENT

Blinkin' knickers, Marcde! We're going to need some help if we're going to stop the most creepy lion in the universe!

MARCDE

You can say that again.

ANCIENT

Blinkin' knickers, Marcde! We're going to need some help if we're going to stop the most creepy lion in the universe!

MARCDE

I'm going to need guns, lots of guns.

Cain turns and sees Marcde and Ancient. He grins an evil grin.

CAIN

Marcde Mesel, we meet again.

ANCIENT

You've met?

MARCDE

Yes. It was a long, long time ago...

EXT. A PARK - BACK IN TIME

A young MARCDE is sitting in a park listening to some reggae music, when suddenly a dark shadow casts over him.

He looks up and sees CAIN. He takes off his headphones.

CAIN

Would you like some barley sugar?

MARCDE's eyes light up, but then he studies CAIN more closely, and looks uneasy.

MARCDE

I don't know, you look kind of creepy.

CAIN

Me? No. I'm not creepy. I'm the least creepy lion in the world.

MARCDE

Wait, you're a lion?

MARCDE runs away, screaming.

INT. SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE - PRESENT DAY

CAIN

You were a coward then, and you are a coward now.

ANCIENT

(To MARCDE) You ran away?

MARCDE

(To ANCIENT) I was a young child. What was I supposed to do?

MARCDE turns to CAIN.

MARCDE

I may have run away from you then, but I won't run away this time!

MARCDE runs away.

He turns back and shouts.

MARCDE

I mean, I am running away, but I'll be back - with guns.

CAIN

I'm not scared of you.

MARCDE

You should be.

EXT. A BOOK SHOP - LATER THAT DAY

MARCDE and ANCIENT walk around searching for something.

MARCDE

I feel sure I left my guns somewhere around here.

ANCIENT

Are you sure? It does seem like an odd place to keep deadly guns.

MARCDE

You know nothing Ancient Stone.

ANCIENT

We've been searching for ages. I really don't think they're here.

Suddenly, CAIN appears, holding a pair of guns.

CAIN

Looking for something?

ANCIENT

Crikey, Marcde, he's got your guns.

MARCDE

Tell me something I don't already know!

ANCIENT

The earth's circumference at the equator is about 40,075 km.

MARCDE

I know that already!

ANCIENT

I'm afraid of sausages.

CAIN

(appalled) Dude!

While CAIN is looking at ANCIENT with disgust, MARCDE lunges forward and grabs his deadly guns. He wields them, triumphantly.

MARCDE

Prepare to die, you creepy parsnip!

CAIN

No please! All I did was attack a bunch of swimmers!

TELES enters, unseen by any of the others.

MARCDE

I cannot tolerate that kind of behaviour! Those swimmers were defenceless! Well now they have a defender - and that's me! Marcde Mesel defender of innocent swimmers.

CAIN

Don't hurt me! Please!

MARCDE

Give me one good reason why I shouldn't use these guns on you right away!

CAIN

Because Marcde, I am your father.

MARCDE looks stunned for a few moments, but then collects himself.

MARCDE

No you're not!

CAIN

Ah well, it had to be worth a try.

CAIN tries to grab the guns but MARCDE dodges out of the way.

MARCDE

Who's the daddy now? Huh? Huh?

Unexpectedly, CAIN slumps to the ground.

ANCIENT

Did he just faint?

MARCDE

I think so. Well that's disappointing. I was rather hoping for a more dramatic conclusion, involving my deadly guns.

MARCDE crouches over CAIN's body.

ANCIENT

Be careful, Marcde. It could be a trick.

MARCDE

No, it's not a trick. It appears that... It would seem... Cain Quest is dead!

MARCDE

What?

MARCDE

Yes, it appears that I scared him to death.

ANCIENT claps his hands.

ANCIENT

So your guns did save the day, after all.

TELES steps forward.

TELES

Is it true? Did you kill the creepy lion?

MARCDE

Teles how long have you been...?

TELES puts his arm around MARCDE.

TELES

Long enough.

MARCDE

Then you saw it for yourself. I killed Cain Quest.

TELES

Then the swimmers are safe?

MARCDE

It does seem that way!

A crowd of vulnerable swimmers enter, looking relived.

TELES

You are their hero.

The swimmers bow to MARCDE.

MARCDE

There is no need to bow to me. I seek no worship. The knowledge that Cain Quest will never attack swimmers ever again, is enough for me.

TELES

You are humble as well as brave!

One of the swimmers passes MARCDE a tinkling pendant

TELES

I think they want you to have it, as a symbol of their gratitude.

MARCDE

I couldn't possibly.

Pause.

MARCDE

Well, if you insist.

MARCDE takes the pendant.

MARCDE

Thank you.

The swimmers bow their heads once more, and leave.

MARCDE turns to TELES.

MARCDE

Does this mean you want me back?

TELES

Oh, Marcde, of course I want you back!

MARCDE smiles for a few seconds, but then looks defiant.

MARCDE

Well you can't have me.

TELES

WHAT?

MARCDE

You had no faith in me. You had to see my scare a lion to death before you would believe in me. I don't want a lover like that.

TELES

But...

MARCDE

Please leave. I want to spend time with the one person who stayed with me through thick and thin - my best friend, Ancient.

ANCIENT grins.

TELES

But...

ANCIENT

You heard the gentleman. Now be off with you. Skidaddle! Shoo!

TELES

Marcde?

MARCDE

I'm sorry Teles, but I think you should skidaddle.

TELES leaves.

ANCIENT turns to MARCDE.

ANCIENT

Did you mean that? You know ... that I'm your best friend?

MARCDE

Of course you are!

The two walk off arm in arm.

Suddenly ANCIENT stops.

ANCIENT

When I said I'm afraid of sausages, you know I was just trying to distract the lion don't you?

Energetic computer programmer DI MARCDE MESEL is arguing with kind teacher MASTER TELES FOR. MARCDE tries to hug TELES but he shakes him off.
