Well over a year ago, when he was first signed with an agency, Ross’ very first call was to audition for a major motion picture role.  His agent emailed over the story line and it was for the role of Matty in an untitled original screenplay.  It was billed as a psychological thriller in which a 19 year old is “haunted by a dybbuk - the soul of  a dead person barrred from Heaven — in the form of a young boy who perished in Auschwitz.” 

In reading over his lines for the audition we were a bit concerned about the content of the film and how the experience would be for him. Ultimately, we decided that his lines for the audition would not be in context of anything else and,  what was the chance of him actually landing this role as it was his first time out (and the role seemed more than supporting).

Ross auditioned and he did well I suppose as well as a first timer, but he didn’t get the part.  We were not surprised nor were we disappointed, we thought it was great experience for him to audition and what fun it will be when the movie comes out to be able to say he auditioned for it.

We have been waiting ever since to see what the movie will be.  Well, thanks to Brandon’s key eye, the mysterty is solved.  The movie is called “The Unborn” and from the looks of the trailer it looks like we may have saved a boat load of money on therapy down the road.

The Unborn Trailer ,  shows a scene Ross actually did for his audition - standing over the crib and swinging the mirror to hit the babysitter’s face and then saying “He wants to be born now” . Creepy.  And kind of cool. 

I am not the fan of horror movies that I was when I was younger.  But I just might have to see this one because of the fact that Ross had his first audition for this movie. That, and the fact that someone thought my son looked like he’d make a good disturbed, possessed child.  Freaky.
