In this instance, the option of gender within the sibling dynamic in Yejin and I's untitled short film cannot be chosen simply due to not having many options for actors but we still feel as though we should base the characters off of iconic sibling duos in order to portray the exact relationship we want to the audience so here is my preferred examples!
Thor & Loki
Brothers with different blood but brothers all the same. Their relationship has grown complicated but the glorious early days of their brotherhood always make me smile (and the ending of thier relationship in 'Ragnarok'). They care about each other, clearly, and that sometimes comes in conflict with their own personal ambitions. While they often find each other on opposing paths, we hope that they continue to retain that love for one another.
Drake and Josh
These two have been immortalized in gifs and memes all across the internet. While they aren’t blood-related, they have demonstrated time and time again that they don’t need to share any blood to love each other. Drake and Josh will always be a brotherhood you can aspire to (even if they were pretty dysfunctional).
Katniss and Prim
These sisters have shown us the meaning of loyalty and love. Katniss’s unwavering courage when it comes to Prim always shines through like the heart of all her actions. Everything she does is for her! It’s never been about the boys, it’s always been about Prim. And that has moved us. Excuse me, just gotta wipe a tear.
For the sibling basis within the untitled short film, I want these two characters to have a mix of all these qualities within their dialogue and interactions with each other. In my opinion, these sibling relationships are some of the best within the media, growing in audience love every generation, which is exactly how I want the audience to feel about my own characters.
