Noah arrived at the set before call time. This gave him enough space to review his lines and allowed Monica to complete her tasks without interruption. Outside his dressing room, crew members moved between equipment carts and lighting rigs, preparing for the next shoot.
Director Yang stopped by to give him a brief overview of the upcoming scene. He reminded Noah to stay cautious during the stunt sequence. His character would need to make a defensive move against a patient who attacked him.
"I know you are not fully recovered from your injury, Noah. If you think you cannot do the stunt, it is not too late to request a body double," Director Yang said.
Noah shook his head and offered a small smile.
"There is no need, Director. I will handle it. I will aim to finish in one take."
Noah had never used a body double since he started acting. Directors and producers often cited that as one of his strengths.
Director Yang nodded.
"Alright. I will keep the medics on standby."
He left.
