New Characters - Layla

Sophie Millard's Character

Name: Layla
Meaning: Dark beauty

We wanted Sophie's character to have elements of a femme fatale character, a femme fatale is a stock character of a mysterious character of a mysterious and seductive woman whose charms ensnare her lovers, often leading them into compromising, dangerous and deadly situations.



In Layla's case, we want the audience to perceive that Layla has charmed and lured Sophia (Zoe's character) into a relationship, leading her into a deadly situation - poisoned by coffee

We will not be making everything about Layla's appearance and actions pointing directly towards a murderous character. We want it to be subtle. We will achieve this by Layla wearing red lipstick, a seductive colour with connotations of blood, in addition to this when Layla kisses Sophia she will leave a red kiss mark on her cheek as if she is leaving her mark on her. Also, Layla will be wearing pink heels to add to the glamour of her character, Within the plot we're creating Sophia will be poisoned, Layla will be making the coffee but there will be a shot of the poison going into the coffee although it will be made unclear as to who put it in.
