Final Casting Decisions

Lucy:
We chose Bethany Ironmonger to play Lucy in THAT STALKED YEAR. We felt she fitted the look we were looking for to play Lucy very well.  We wanted somebody that comes across as vulnerable and naive to the audience in order for them to worry and care about her and we feel Bethany plays this part very well. She fits the look we were going for with Lucy as well which is a blonde who is pretty and this is what attracts the stalker to her.

Josh:
We were unsure on who to use to play Josh in our film opening as we weren't sure how we wanted him to be. After some thought we decided Jack Jolly would be perfect to play the role of Josh. We feel he fits the role of 'boy next door' and we do not suspect him to be the stalker.

Amelie:
We knew from the offset that Ellie Fitch would be the perfect person to fit the role of Amelie. She is very similar to the character herself as we wanted her to love shopping which Ellie does and always interested in the latest fashions. Amelie is the closest to Lucy out of all the friends and Ellie and Bethany are good friends and this really stands out in the opening as there is chemistry between them.

Madison:
We chose Aimee to play Madison as they are very similar. Aimee is quiet and keeps herself to herself and this is how we wanted Madison to be. You can really see in the opening that the bigger characters are Lucy and Amelie whereas Madison who Aimee plays takes it in but says very little and we feel Aimee plays this part very well.
