Stella (Paula Taylor) – The Fearless Protagonist
Paula Taylor plays Stella, a woman torn between caring for her ailing mother and discovering the truth about her father’s disappearance. Her father’s fate is revealed when she stumbles upon the “Taklee Genesis” transporter, leading her on a perilous journey across dimensions. Drawn to the film by director Chookiat “Matthew” Sakveerakul’s immense passion, Taylor recalls, “He was just so intuitive in the way he was telling his vision and just everything. He was so passionate, and I told him ‘You know what I want? To be a part of your passion. I wanna be in whatever you’ve seen,’” she says.

Ithi (Peter Corp Dyrendal) – The Dreamer Turned Adventurer
Peter Corp Dyrendal steps into the role of Ithi, a humble schoolteacher with a longing to become an archaeologist.

It’s a sci-fi project that includes time travels, monsters and a lot of challenges, a lot of computer graphics. I know it’s a very enticing project,” he says.

Kong (War Wanarat) – The Mysterious Resident
War Wanarat portrays Kong, a local from Ban Don Hai with a perplexing secret—he appears not to have aged since Stella last saw him 30 years ago. Though Kong has no recollection of his childhood, his father fiercely protects any information about it. As a sci-fi enthusiast, War was thrilled to be part of this groundbreaking project. He shared his excitement, “I was over the moon. When Matthew first contacted me and mentioned the word ‘sci-fi,’ I told my manager, ‘Let’s do it!’ My team then said, ‘Calm down! Let’s look at the script and contract first, shall we?’ and I was like, ‘I’ve got to. I’ve just gotta be in this film.’”

Nina Nutthatcha Padovan plays Valen, Stella’s courageous daughter who joins the mission to rescue her grandfather. Valen’s bravery shines through in the film’s most intense scenes, including one unforgettable moment. “The fun part of this movie was the running.
