Louisiana girl with rare condition to be honored in anime movie - New York Daily News

Posted on News by Owen Ward · February 11, 2014 2:44 PM

NY_Daily_News.JPGWhen filmmaker Robbie Bryan was writing his anime movie he envisioned a lead character who was unique and brave.

He envisioned a quirky teenage girl who had passion, and though she was the object of bullying, she had the strength to rise through it.

He envisioned a tough girl who would let nothing keep her from her dreams.

He envisioned Cassie England, 16, of Baton Rouge, La. He just didn't know she actually existed.

And though Cassie died a month ago from a rare and brutal skin disease, Bryan, who met her family a week after her death, is making her a key part of his upcoming film, "The Black Hat."

Black Hat Anime Film to Honor Cassie - Keep Calm and... what, in this house?

Posted on News by Owen Ward · January 30, 2014 10:36 AM

safe_image.jpgJust a few days after Cassie died, I was contacted by a friend who knows a fellow named Robbie Bryan, who is a writer/producer/filmmaker. He's in the process of raising funds to make a film called Black Hat, which is about a girl who is teased and bullied for being a fan of anime and cosplay, and her epic quest to get to an anime convention in Louisiana to meet one of her idols. She had told Robbie all about Cassie, and Robbie was touched by Cass, as all of us are, and wanted to name one of the main characters in the film after her, and fashion her look after our Cass. I was so moved by this sweet gesture. What better way to remember our baby girl, who started cosplaying at age 10, attended her first convention in costume, and couldn't wait to go to Comic Con this year?
