REVAMP · THE UNDEAD STORY · GMMTV 2024 PART 2

BOUN TWEETS ABOUT REVAMP’S SCRIPT

Today, after returning to Thailand from his first European fanmeeting with Prem, Boun tweeted about Revamp’s script, a hint that workshops and filming for his much-anticipated vampire series with Prem are imminent. \o/

Boun: The script is sooo good, I want to brag about it!!! [translation by @hallowpen]

For anyone who hasn’t been following Boun’s passion project, Revamp is a fully original story and has been in the works since long before Boun and Prem joined GMMTV last spring. As early as 2020, Boun was begging anyone to cast him in a vampire series, so Revamp means a lot to him. <3

He's been very heavily involved in the script-writing process, and he also put a significant amount of his own money, time, and energy behind aspects like 1) pitching the series to potential sponsors in Japan, 2) managing the fitting and photoshoot, and 3) funding the first teaser all while the production was under Studio Wabi Sabi.

When Boun and Prem joined GMMTV in spring of 2024, Revamp came with them. In order to appeal to a broader audience, the action-based script was altered, centering the romance between vampire Ramil (Boun) and antiques dealer Punn (Prem) while intensifying the tone of the story. If I'm remembering correctly, it was GMMTV’s CEO Tha himself who suggested the changes, which to me speaks highly of BounPrem's place in their new company as well as the resources GMMTV is putting behind BounPrem's first production in their care.

However, even under GMMTV, Revamp is very much Boun's project, and I think he and Prem have both continued to have significant influence in how it's shaped.

My only reservation has been New as director, but I've actually come around on that. As long as he delegates editing and sound design to someone else, my only other concern was the sensuality. The whole vampire trope is deeply erotic, and New's gone on the record over and over that he doesn't need sex in his series. To me, that always felt very sex-negative, but after speaking with a Thai friend recently, I may have misread him and his views (which would be a relief, and I'll be happy to be wrong).

According to my friend, the way New speaks about not needing sex in a BL series reads less as sex-negativity to them and more as…ego.

See, regardless of how anyone feels about any series New's directed, he is an influential director, and his earliest series were groundbreaking in the Thai BL industry. It makes sense that as more and more BL series rush out grabbing their viewership off the strength of nudity and sex above craft and dedication, New seems to pride himself on drawing in his viewers without leaning on eroticism.

Once my friend said that…I think they're right.

Because if that is New's point of view, I really can't hold it against him. He's an openly queer man who founded and built an extremely protective queer space in the industry in Studio Wabi Sabi, so it would check out with his ethics that he'd care a lot about who's watching his series, what drew them in, and the direction of the queer media in his country as a whole.

However, that being said, New hasn't shrunk away from the sensuality of Revamp, and he's apparently been teasing fans on Twitter about how much Boun and Prem are doing to prepare physically for their roles. So I think it's not necessarily that New's anti-sex, but more anti-unnecessary-sex, if that makes sense.

After all, New directed the original teaser, and the original teaser had this:

At the end of the day, the script will always be what matters most to me, since it's the spine of the whole production, and I'm over the moon that it's been prioritized, adjusted, and perfected. But I'm happiest that Boun is happy, because he's been so eager for this over the past five years, and it's finally coming to fruition with the budget and the reach it deserves. :')

And the fact that Revamp has gotten exactly the same length of time for its preproduction as KristSingto's comeback series The Ex-Morning (also original) is a very good sign to me.

In conclusion,

IMMORTAL VAMPIRE LOVERS!

There has been news on the Revamp front...

Boun and Prem did a press junket for an event they attended yesterday and they let slip a few details about their upcoming series and its novel release.

The first half of the interview is spent talking about the event and their trip to Rome with Great and Inn... so let's just skip ahead to what I came here for hehe

They start off by saying that they've spent the majority of the last two years touring for events and concerts, but that's all about to change now that they have to focus and dedicate their time to filming. They were asked about what stage the series was currently in. "We haven't started filming yet, but there's already a surprise." Boun confirmed that the script has been finished, though they haven't had a chance to read it entirely yet, "The last part of the script was stuck at the ending. I hadn't read it completely (he uses the word 'overall'), and then suddenly there's a novel." Prem agreed they were both surprised to find out that their series was going to have a novel and they'd each have to buy and read their own copy since they don't even know how it's going to end.

It was confirmed that the vampire series will be in the genre of "romantic fantasy". BP also spoke about the typical ways in which they have to get in shape and look after their health more now that they are about to play these new characters; and Prem commented on how they needed to shake off some of the rust from their acting abilities so that they can give their best performance. Prem: "To be honest, I was never that great at acting." Boun: "Yes, our acting skills were lacking a bit, but since this is our job, we have to put forth our best effort."

Since they'd be working together again with P'New, Prem went on to say, "It isn't difficult to work together because we understand each other. We just want to improve ourselves as much as possible and deliver an even better performance than we did before." They were asked what they were doing to prepare for their roles, and Boun said he had been exercising more to firm up his body but that he had to be aware of his limits given his heart disease. Aside from working with a trainer to get their bodies in shape, Prem also said that they will have to really study the characters. Boun expressed the difficulty in portraying a full fantasy character like a vampire (presumably because of the massive amounts lore that exists about them), but that it probably won't be much different than how people expect vampires to be. They joked that he would probably be able to eat garlic, but he couldn't survive without blood. He did say that he spoke with P'New "about how I don’t want the vampires to necessarily be from a particular place or specific country in the world, I want him (Ramil) to be an originally reimagined character."

As far as the filming process, Prem said that they're in the preparation stage. The next step would be a script readthrough, and then continuing to do their homework with the characters (most likely through workshops) because right now they only have general ideas and very little information about their backstories.

I've been following this particular BP project for years at this point, so I am very very very excited to see it finally begin to lift off!!!
