Your name is not famous enough to bank the whole series on.
We're going to give this role to Bo Derek.
And Bo Derek, as wonderful as she is, she's not a strong, that kind of a female character.

Well-known actress.

It was an A-minus agent, but really powerful.
And he looks at me and he says, we're going to let you go.
