Harry kept his grin. He was loving the vibes of the party so far. So many people were up to have fun. "Of course. I don't think it's allowed to not being drinking while in France." Harry gratefully took his own glass. This clearly wasn't his first one of the night. "Cheer, mate." He raised his glass with him. He took a long drink. "This place is truly amazing. I've been to France before but I've never got a chance to visit the Palace of Versailles."
- hamza looked down at himself , worried for a second that the thing he'd forgotten was his pants . once he saw he was fully dressed , he gave a sigh of relief . head tilted to the side in confusion though about what he could be forgetting until own question was answered . " oh you mean alcohol ... that makes a lotta sense now . don't have to ask me twice . " he grinned , plucking two of the glasses of the tray and passing one over to the other . " cheers . "
As soon as Harry approached the bar, he waved over the bartender for a shot. The flutes of champagne were not going to work anymore for him. "Thank you" He chuckled at the man's joke. Taking his first sip, he looked back at the party. Harry was used to these amount of people but from time to time he needed some room to breath. "Not insufferable, I've been to events bigger. I just needed to step away. I suppose all of this can be a lot." He introduced himself. "I'm Harry." He extended his hand.
◜ ♱ : " not at all, i'd hate to be the one drinking up the bar tab. " humour lingers by the edge, legarthic gaze thrown haphazardly over his shoulder for a brief moment, " the whole thing's a bit insufferable, isn't it ? "
Harry lifted his gaze from his phone. "No. Continue if you like. I was listening. We need to change a location, okay. We can work on that."

"How many glasses have you had tonight that you already forgot?" He teased. He wasn't going to shame her. That's why they were here. For a good time. "No worries. That's why I am here. We were on our way to the next room. For some extra activities to bring this night up a notch. But if you want to duel, I think I could pull out that sword over there."
the homme's question hangs in the air as brown optics dart around the ballroom, taking in the lavish surroundings adorned with gilded mirrors and elaborate chandeliers. she takes a sip of her drink, casting a sidelong glance at her companion. 〝 oh, i'm almost sure we are, 〞 she drawls, her red lipstick accentuating the playful smirk on her face. 〝 though, i must confess, i don't remember what i agreed to. did i accidentally sign up for a duel, a dance or perhaps just a scandalous tête-à-tête in the gardens ? 〞
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 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. "
He appreciated the concern. "I know I might not look like I can party still, but I hold out a bit longer." He just needed another drink to keep him going. "I've been going to events like this for years. The French just do it a little different. How about you? What made you step out in the gardens?"

With his third glass of wine in hand, he pondered. "Hmm, I supposed I could help you. What could go wrong tonight?" He took one more sip. "How can I help?"

"Well you never know. Maybe there’s something amazing to discover just around the corner." He started to lead her to the next room to get this party started.
