Once upon a time, actor James Woods was filming a movie at Pearson airport. However, fate had other plans for him as he suddenly fell ill with a very infectious virus and was unable to finish filming.
The director was pacing up and down the terminal, looking bewildered and worried about what to do next. Suddenly, he ran into a baggage agent named Harry Banks. The director was shocked by Harry’s striking resemblance to James Woods. He immediately saw an opportunity and asked Harry if he would be willing to finish the movie that James had started.
Harry was hesitant at first but the director explained the whole situation and the urgency of the matter. Harry, being a man of action and adventure, finally agreed to help out. He was ready to step into the shoes of James Woods and complete the film.
The director quickly got the cameras rolling and Harry, who was a natural in front of the camera, delivered an amazing performance. He was able to perfectly mimic James Woods’ mannerisms and expressions, and the audience would never be able to tell the difference.
The movie was a huge success and Harry became an overnight sensation. The director was happy that the film was finished and Harry was happy to have had the chance to live out his dream of being an actor.
From that day on, Harry Banks was known as the “Undercover Actor” and went on to star in many more films. He was grateful for the opportunity that was presented to him and never forgot the power of luck and the kindness of strangers.
In the end, Harry and James Woods became good friends and often joked about the time they shared the screen together. And the director, well, he was just happy to have a film in the can.
