I am extremely proud to introduce our new lead actress for the role of LEK in Night Kill, Chakriya Dechmark (ชาคริยา เดชมาก), better known by her nickname, Andear. Since graduating from Stamford International University, where she earned a degree in communications, Andear has appeared in numerous Thai TV shows, music videos, and a number of magazine print ads including: Ray, Candy, Gossip, and ICE. She also models frequently, and has acted in many commercials such as: Ford, Land and House, Air Asia, Rexona, Yamaha, and WRP Milk. In her spare time, Andear likes looking after cats, and is an amateur race car driver on the Gymkhana Ladies Circuit, where last year she came in fourth. This will be her first feature.
Andear came to us through a bit of serendipity. She tested with Mike New for his role as Santi, and he became our male lead. Although her part was small in his audition, I was impressed by her performance. When it became necessary to change lead actresses, Andear was my first choice. She put herself all in with her recorded audition, and by doing so, won the lead role that the entire movie is based around. On behalf of the entire cast and crew, we welcome you, Andear, to the Night Kill team.
