Strange Journey III
Project Overview
Hello, everyone!
Well, we are officially celebrating two consecutive years of my presence here on Casting Call Club, and I couldn’t be any more happier. The support I’ve gotten for my projects is nothing short of amazing, and I’m gonna take the opportunity to give each of you guys my sincere thanks. Now, for the past couple of years, I’ve been giving people updates on the “Strange Journey” films, and so far, despite the occasional roadblocks, things have been running quite smoothly. For the first film, we are currently on the last stages of pre-production with 25 backgrounds drawn and a fifth animation test will be out momentarily with more fluidity, since we still have to improve on the overall choppy animation quality.
We’re also re-editing a storyboard version of the film itself, complete with music and sound effects, and will be released during the month of September. After we finish the backgrounds and animation tests, live-action filming/animation on “Strange Journey” will finally begin hopefully at the start of the next year. As for the sequel, we’ve completed the casting process for the amount of characters featured in the script, and we plan to start storyboarding at the end of November. As with the first film, a storyboard version of the film will be planned and finished in the future. It’s been a wild ride trying to get these films off the ground, and while there have been bumps in the road, I can honestly say that we’ve been doing a great job keeping the spirit and passion of “Strange Journey” alive, and I couldn’t be any more proud of the two main casts than I already am.
But, sadly, as an old saying goes, all good journeys must come to an end.
And, thus, I present to you all an unpaid casting call for the final film in the “Strange Journey” trilogy: “Strange Journey III”. Before I go any further and discuss what I wanna do for this project, I’m gonna give you a rundown of the film’s plot synopsis:
“A human fugitive from an animated multiverse enlists the help of Huskywood queen Holly Husky and her friends to destroy a planet-sized mechanical being named Zaslav, who has turned the multiverse into a wasteland using a special kind of toxic gas and plans to erase it using a device known as the Dimension Hopper. Along with a few of their multiverse counterparts, an escaped prisoner named Tracey Osbourne, and a cranky squirrel called the Acoracle, the Strange Journey gang must restore peace and harmony in the decaying multiverse before Zaslav succeeds with his devious plan.”
For this installment, which will be a long-term project, I wanted this second sequel to be bigger, better, and more ambitious than the first two combined. That means it’ll have more character development, new locations, and a lot more action set pieces that could possibly rival the set pieces from the first “Strange Journey”. Also, it will focus on the theme of overcoming obstacles and relying on your loved ones to achieve said challenges, especially when it comes to a plot centering on multiple universes and destroying the feared planet-like being Zaslav.
Now, here is where things get interesting. I’m not gonna spoil anything, but I will give you a few key details that will set this apart from the first two films. For starters, in contrast with the previous two films, “Strange Journey III” sort of ditches the parodies and references and goes for a darker tone in terms of its overall story and the way that the action scenes are gonna be handled. There will still be a couple of parodies and maybe a couple of references here and there, but those will be few and far between. So, it’s still “Strange Journey”, just a bit different in terms of tone and structure. Secondly, the characters of Jack Bushtail and Lila Skunk will be written out of the script. Why? Well, the reason these two are left out of the story is that I want to tell a different kind of romance. Now, like I said, I’m not gonna give away ANY details on this, but trust me, you’ll be surprised as who’ll substitute for Jack and Lilia as our main couple.
The third and final key detail I’m gonna give you is a pretty important one to remember. There will be crossover and steampunk themes presented in the film, inspired by 2003’s “The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”, and other films such as “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”, and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness”. There won’t be any characters used in the film itself, only locations from various animated films and TV shows, as well as several Easter eggs, although most of them won’t be mentioned in the script. The locations will not be revealed except in the aforementioned script after auditioning.
I’m hoping that we can give this trilogy a proper conclusion so that we can go ahead and say good-bye to the characters we’ve come to admire for the past two movies…even though the first “Strange Journey” is still in pre-production, as mentioned before.
Now, with all that said, here are a few rules to keep you in mind:
- Be sure to have a good quality microphone. Make sure that there is NO background noise when you record your lines.
- When you get cast for a certain character, the script will be delivered to you right after so that I can have you look over the script itself. Then, I will give you instructions on what to do next with the character you’re voicing as well as a deadline.
- Always have a Discord ID with you, that way we can keep in contact with each other.
- Be sure to take your time with the lines you're recording. Feel free to take a break, take deep breaths, and drink some water. You don't have to rush anything.
- Just be yourself and have fun with these characters. We are allowed to have a good time.
The deadline for “Strange Journey III” will be on May 26th, 2023. After the deadline closes at 12:00 a.m., I will go ahead and choose which ones will be cast so that we can all go to work. I’m looking forward to working with you all and let’s hope for a proper conclusion to the trilogy. Take care and stay safe!

We can't just sit here while another universe is crumbling before our very eyes. What if other universes suffer the same fate? (brief pause) That's not gonna happen. We're gonna help Huskell restore the multiverse, even if Zaslav wipes us all out.

OK, your Highness, me and Uncle Frederick have scheduled a whole day for us in honor of your birthday. After breakfast, I booked you for a tennis tournament at 10:00, then we have a luncheon with the Huskywood Royal Council at 1:30, and I ordered tickets to Patricia and Shirley's duet at 7:00.

For my first trick, I, the Great Hilda Cottontail, shall make this ordinary beagle disappear before your very eyes!
Hmm, that's honestly a good question. I guess ever since I closed down the Rabbit's Foot, I didn't know what to do. Then, while I was working at a burger joint, I came across a commercial for the Great Stromboli. He was looking for assistants, so I quit my job and applied. Over time, I improved my skills, and I started performing magic tricks in front of a wide audience. Not gonna lie, it was fun.
Your uncle has a point, Holly.

Appreciate it, talking wolf. The name's Tracey Osbourne. I've been trying to get out of this dump for days ever since Zaslav came into the picture. I was held prisoner by him and his Cylonix goons right after the whole multiverse turned upside-down.
No way. I'd rather fight him alone, even if that gas stops me dead in my tracks. Besides, I refuse to let anyone get hurt.
We'll talk later! Right now, we gotta deal with these buckets of bolts!

Holly, we've been to another world once before. Remember Shirley and that silent movie world of hers? We rescued her from that Sullivan guy?
I suggest that we should send her back to her dimension so that we can run a few more tests on the Dimension Hopper. Then, after a few days, we bring Huskell back to Huskywood and work together to take down that planet-sized freak! Sounds good, huh?
There's a map located at the bottom-right corner of the D.H. Press it, and it'll take us where we need to go.

Hate to disappoint ya, kid, but I ain't got an answer for that.
Ah, Zaslav, that big ol' jawbreaka. I haven't heard that name in years. Can't really remember exactly what his weakness is. Guess it had somethin' to do with that, uh, Dimension Hip-pity-Hop, or whatever the hell it's called.
