Zane had also clarified that Freya was pulled into the shoot against her will–and backed it up with a clip from the actual scene she’d filmed. Freya tapped the video open.
Even stripping away the filters and studio gloss, that short scene was striking. She looked ethereal–so perfectly suited to the original character that it was like watching a storybook come to life.
Freya rewatched the clip twice in disbelief. Was that really her? She almost didn’t dare blink, afraid of missing even a second of it.
Meanwhile, the comment section was blowing up. Plenty of people had been following the scandal just for the drama, but once the production team’s footage went live–even the truth became secondary to one thing:
“Just watched the video–wait, that’s the author?! Holy crap, she looks like she walked out of a fantasy novel. You expect me to believe someone that beautiful needs to steal roles? If she wanted the lead, nobody could stop her!”
“This might be the first time I’ve paused a video just to write a comment. I thought I was shallow, but… this is next–level. Is this really what the author looks like?”
“Okay but why are you trying to make it on talent alone when you look like that? If I looked like you, I’d be on a billboard already. It’s not even jealousy–it’s respect. You’re too good. Of course people are jealous.”
“No wonder the director replaced Sophia. If you’ve got the real thing right there, why bother with the bootleg? I mean, yeah, Sophia meant well, but still. She had to know she wasn’t cutting it.”

“Sophia’s fans need to chill. The director literally promised her other opportunities. Recasting this scene was a business decision, and frankly, replacing her with the author was a major win. That’s a glow up, not a snub.”

had her chance, she wasted it, and now she’s mad someone else stepped in and killed it. Boo hoo.”
“Aya worked so hard and still got treated like garbage. Don’t act like you’ve never been overlooked before. Y’all are heartless.”
“We’ve all been overlooked. The difference is, we go home, cry a little, and work harder. We don’t go blaming someone else for it. And by the way–she’s getting compensated. The rest of us never got that. Be grateful.”
“Whatever. I believe Freya didn’t steal anything. She even addressed it on Twitter. Now the real question is: When is the show coming out? I need more of that goddess on my screen!
“Same! I’ve never been this hyped for a premiere. Not gonna lie–I’m 100% a looks person.”
