I had something else planned for Throwback Thursday today but I just received word that Thomas Meyer died of cancer. We had known it was coming for years now so it's not a surprise but is still a big loss.
I originally met Thomas at a bikini photoshoot; he was one of the photographers. We became friends on Facebook and he watched as I switched from modeling to cosplay.
A couple years later, he came to me, told me he loved my Psylocke costume (the first one, not latex) and the persona I gave off from it and wanted me to be the villain in his movie.
I was of course, flattered but unsure, having never acted in my life. But I went through with it and I'm glad I did. It's not the best acting at all but hey it was my first time and I wouldn't mind doing more in the future.
Currently "Chosen One", the movie about vampires and elves, is not out to the public but has been traveling the Film Festival circuit for a couple years now.
With Thomas' death, hopefully some awesome people from the production crew will get it out to the public. You will be missed, Thomas.
