The Ending Series Fantasy Cast: CHRIS and MR. GRAYSON

We're pleased to announce that we have two more "cast members" to add to the Ending Series fantasy cast.

Thought the race for who should play Chris was close at first, it's swayed overwhelmingly in one direction. The candidates were:

Kate Winslet

Katee Sackhoff

Anna Torv

And the winner is...

Katee Sackhoff

Chris Johnson is an essential supporting character throughout The Ending Series, as well as one of Dani's closest friends. She's a blonde, blue-eyed Army Ranger with plenty of attitude and a heart of gold.

"Chris stood and stalked across the living room, pausing when she reached the beautiful, imposing man. She was surprisingly menacing for such a motherly woman." 

(One of Dani's first impressions of Chris, from chapter 5 of After The Ending) 

The winner of the race for who should play Mr. Grayson, on the other hand, was pretty clear from the beginning. The candidates were:

Option 1: Kevin Kline

Option 2: Daniel Day-Lewis

Option 3: Jeff Bridges

And the winner is...

Kevin Kline

Daniel Grayson, also known as Mr. Grayson or Mr. G to his form students, is a supporting character throughout The Ending Series. He's a middle-aged former history teacher and a natural leader whose newly grown "mountain man" beard lends him some post-apocalyptic street cred.

“Miss Cartwright?” asked an older man. 

Recognizing his sharp eyes as he drew closer, I realized it was Mr. Grayson. What the hell is he doing here? “Mr. G?” I pointed to his impressive mountain man beard. “I like the new look.” I leaned in to hug him, receiving an uncomfortable side hug in return.

“Oh, yes, well we haven’t had much time…traveling, you know,” he explained, moderately embarrassed. 

“Oh, yes, well we haven’t had much time…traveling, you know,” he explained, moderately embarrassed.

The races for who should play Chris and Mr. Grayson are over, but The Ending Series fantasy casting call is only just beginning! Make sure your voice is heard. :D
