"Do you mind if I join you for a bit ?" Harry approached the other at the bar. "It's a bit crowded over. Needed to break away."

With the holidays around the corner, everyone was busy. Harry had his hand full but he had a bit of extra time to assist his elderly father. It was a quick errand to hope over to Kavas Enterprises to finalize an agreement for funding Harry Sr's next project. Harry walked into Kavas Enterprises and was directed to Kemal's office. Seeing Kemal clearly busy at his desk, Harry gave a quick knock on the open door to announce his arrival. The eye contact gave him the signal to at least walk in. "I'm here on behave of my father. He had a financial agreement, and he just needed to make some adjustments. The production had some additions made. Just wanted to make sure if it's in budget. He couldn't make due to his health, so I'm here in his place."

he’s been actively ignoring the individual at his door, making it known that he’s more than aware of their presence by looking up from the tablet in his grasp for a solid moment to make eye contact before moving back to business. not only was he in the dog house and forced to run to the bathroom for testing every so many hours ( as if he could actively snort anything with a babysitter on duty ), but he was drowning in stocks that continue to drop. “ jesus — fucking christ, what do you want ? ” finally, he looks up to properly acknowledge the person that’s taking up space in his office.
𓏲 * ( sebastian stan, cismale, he/him, henry cavill cc ) ⸺ pictures of HAROLD “HARRY” GRIFFIN JR have been showing up all over my feed, and considering the last time they were #trending, it was due to not signing on his latest superhero movie — i'm not likely to unfollow anytime soon. with their fitted suits that could be dressed down, slicked back hair and striking blue eyes, i'm not surprised to hear that they are considered part of the BLUE BLOODS. after forty years, they've managed to garner a reputation for being more generous than dramatic, but their critics say that they're more impulsive than creative when they aren't too busy focusing on their living in the shadow of his multi-Emmy winning father, attending the endless award shows and after parties, huge superhero franchise that are impossible to escape. when they aren't occupied with their work as a producer / actor, they've been sighted reading comic books. reputation.com has taken to calling them LONDON BOY in order to avoid a lawsuit ( again ).

tldr;
Harry is the first child out of four to famous film director Harry Griffin Sr. ( Steven Spielberg fame ). He had always grew up around movies.
Going to movie premiers were just fun family activity for Harry growing up. He also loved to visit his father on set. He did get small background roles in a lot of his father's films.
His family moved from London to LA when he was fifteen. His mother wanted him and his siblings to have a little bit of a normal childhood. He attended the best private schools both in London and LA.
By the time he was turning 18, Harry was in the spotlight. The world knew about him, from his father. He was a bit of a teenage heart throb that wasn't actually in the film industry. All of his fame came from his father's success.
His curiosity on getting more into film industry had him asking other directors, who were friends of his father to be in their movies. It took a while but Harry got his first acting credit in a small period film . It showed off Harry's true acting skills.
Soon every teenage girl had posters of him on their walls. Harry was going to events and premieres just for him to be there on the carpet. He became a true 90's heartthrob
His next movie he landed was a large budget historical piece . The director loved his look that they needed him to be in the film. The film blew up in the box office sky rocketing Harry's career. He was one of Hollywood's biggest name before 30.
After the success of the film, he took a few roles here and there but it was at this time that he wanted to work behind the scenes and start producing. Mostly working with his favorite directors and cast. He did this for a few years, taking a break from being in the main spotlight. He didn't stop acting, just not taking the main lead.
It was the casting choice for one hugely anticipated superhero movie that got Harry back in front of the camera. He was the number one choice to play Superman in the latest remake. He took pride in the role, enjoying the promotion for the movie. The fandom the came with the movie really
Headcannons;
Despite being a born and raised in London, a lot of people believe he is American after his role as Superman.
He is a huge comic / superhero fan. He even produced all the Superman films he was in. As well some other super hero films.
He has a three year old Border Collie, Quinn, to keep his home occupied.
More to come !

Harry loved attending these sort of events. It got him out of his home and extend his contacts. There was always someone new to introduced himself to. Granted half the time they knew who he was but Harry still wanted to stay humble. He had already went around introducing himself and familiarizing with the other people here. "A lot of people turned up tonight. You tell people there will be champagne and gift bags and they fill this hotel to the brim."
Harry attended charity events at least once a month. That was happened when your name was Griffin. Him and his father were frequent to attend any sort of charity. After attending so many Harry learned a few tricks to liven them up. The table he was seated at tonight was filled with new faces to him. His attention was at the speaker until a whisper came from his side. He chuckled at her comment. "You're new to these?" Harry looked back up to the speaker. She wasn't wrong. He had already tuned them out. He was already giving a good amount of money to the cause, at least he do was get a drink with a pretty woman. "You know, what the hell. I'll take you on the offer. Let me walk you to the bar."
── with: open starter @ anyone ── where: charity gala in nyc ── when: saturday night, around night time
normally, normally she enjoyed attending the charity gala's set up by her manager. it's good for your brand, they said. the dressing up and flirting were usually the best part.
the worst ? the speeches. undoubtedly. they bore her to death, as lili did her best not to be caught yawning in the audience, hiding behind a nonchalant expression and the charms of her dramatic, flamboyant dress.
" i need a drink, " she confesses to the person seated next to her, whispering through gritted teeth. " these events get worse by the minute. i will start swinging by the chandelier à la sia if this speech doesn't end within the next three seconds. you with me ? "
Harry always stayed humbled. "My movies? Those pieces of junk." He joked around. "Sorry you have to watch all those." He wanted to keep the light heart attitude with them. He sat back down at the table, excited to discuss this movie. "Not a lot as you would think. Some actors don't put as much effort. But I take pride in each role. Which- the one I have in your book, I really am enjoying reading so far." Harry gave a point over to the book. "I really did enjoying the world you created. Amazing work." He praised them. "Oh, well then I have to make sure I make a good impression. Have you have done anything to this scale of production before? It can get intimidating."
the buzzing excitement in their veins hasn't drained since they first got confirmation that everything was good to go with the adaption. their smile is permanent ( as if they aren't always showing off their teeth in impressive joy ) on their way to meet the actor. they come to the table armed with a tote bag overpacked with their laptop, a hefty copy of character studies, and of course the book that's up for adaption.
" no, oh my god, it's totally entirely my pleasure. i've watched like all of your movies to prepare. " they take the seat across from him, struggling for a moment to hang their tote on the chair, only to give up and set it on the floor. " do all actors in adaptions do this ? it's my first time experiencing this, so i'm completely out of my depth. "
"I'm just getting old and getting turned around. Or my amount of drinks I've had tonight." He couldn't decided which one was right. Harry laughed it off. He was just here to have some fun. "I suppose you're right about that. Real glad I ran into you then. You seem to have gotten a hold of the layout." Then an idea popped into his head. "I think it might be a good idea to keep you by my side. For a while, you probably have others you want to be with I'm sure."
polite smile lingers on petals as she accepted the other's words, groomed into docility as child but hunger for more changed her ⸺ chameleon that easily switches natures, it makes violetta so good at her job. " i believe it's more the amount of people and the costumes, it all seems so familiar — no point of recognition to draw back on, " she suggests, furthering the conversation between the pair with light tones.
