Will Stanton has had a serious illness…
Dr. Armstrong-
He's been a very, very sick boy for a while.
(V.O now) Can you send him away somewhere? What about that cousin of yours in Wales?

Guy at station V.O-
Get yourself healthy now, young man.
//Will gets in the car with Rhys (at train station)//
Narrator-
But Will will have to deal with more than just a lost memory and new faces…
//Very quick shots of Will with various people, ie: Caradog Pritchard, his Aunt & Uncle, Rowlands, Bran's dad//
Narrator-
Now they're speaking Welsh.
//Shot of Will, humorous music//
Will (confused)-
Tally-lyn…Minid Seeswyn…Sem eyes…Affon Diffy…Machine-leth…

//Shot of Will and Bran running; the three men on the thrones; Merriman leading a woman with a baby through mist//
Narrator-
Now, through many dangers…
//Shot of fire on the mountain, men trying to put it out; Caradog Pritchard holding and aiming a gun; a giant wave threatening to crash; the milgwn//
Will-
What are they?
Bran-
The milgwn. Grey foxes that live up in the mountains…
Narrator-
Will must find a way to wake the six Sleepers…
//Shot of Will and Bran standing under the stars (in Bird Rock); very quick shot of the six swans flying over the lake//

I don't want to have to hurt you.
Narrator-
To aid in the coming battle between the Dark and the Light.
//Shot of Bran playing a golden harp; Cafall fighting the milgwn; Will surrounded by mists//
Grey King (just a big shadow, speaking to Will)-
Our time is almost come, in spite of you, and the Dark is rising! The Dark is rising!
Narrator-
And if Will fails, all will be lost.
//Shot of Will tumbling down the mountainside; a milgwn changing color and shape; one of the lords with the blue robes disappears in a cloud of smoke, thunder and lighting and darkness…//
(Shot of Cafall knocking Will and Bran out of the way, a burning tree crashes down)
Bran (petting Cafall)-
Cafall's a special dog…not ordinary.
(Black screen with fancy writing)
Based on a novel by Susan Cooper(Shot of Pritchard looking furious, then holding his gun again)
(Screen goes black, simultaneously a bullet is heard, then silence)
(Shot of Will in front of Bran standing in a doorway. He holds up his arm and the viewpoint switches to behind their heads, and a bright light engulfs the screen. It fades, leaving the title in old fashioned script.)
Narrator-
The Grey King.
(Shot of Rowlands in the car with Will)
Rowlands-
Be careful not to forget that there are people in this valley that can be hurt, even in the pursuit of good ends.
(Black screen, fancy writing)
Christmas*Just a few notices*
you might have noticed that I didn't put any actors or actresses in this trailer. From all of the reviews (which I really appreciate) I've been getting lots of ideas for things…
so I have this idea. I'm gonna list some ideas for parts, and I want YOU to review and say what you think. Then I'll have the final results for SotT and I'll put them right there. I plan to go back and revise all of the trailers and put everything to rights. You don't have to read them if you want, but whatever, I just feel a need to do that. But don't expect too much too fast…cos I have other fics that need help, and lots of other stuff to do too.
I also wanted to know---if u replace chapters, do the reviews stay? Like, if I revised one of the trailers, and replaced the old one with a new one, would it still keep the reviews that the chapter got? Please inform me =D
Ok, here are most of the actors and actresses. Remember, give me your opinions!
Will: Shia La Boef, Kevin Alexander Clarke (the kid who was the drummer in school of rock)
Jane: Emma Watson (Hermione from HP), Rachel Hurd-Wood (Wendy from Peter Pan, the new one)
Barney: the kid who played anakin skywalker
Simon: Haley Joel Osmont (6th sense)
Merriman: Sir Ian McKellen (Xmen, Gandalf), Alan Rickman (Snape)
The Lady: Cate Blanchet
Painter of the dark (from Greenwitch): Hugo Weaving (Elrond, Mr. Smith)
John Rowlands: Jason Stathan (the guy with the accent from The Italian Job, just imagine him with hair…)
The Rider: Kevin Bacon, Jason Isaacs (? Reviewer suggestion)
These are all just tentative ideas…and remember that actors/actresses can change their appearances and fake accents n stuff. (at least I think so on the accent thing).
* if anyone can find a way to fit Elijah wood in here, tell me!
Thanks a million ^^
