A Relapse in Acting

The pressure must be taking its toll on Young Versatile Performer (YV) as he’s been the subject of a major faux pas in the acting department. YV has been getting roles in the prime projects of his network (HN) one after the other, and thus, the public has assumed that he is being groomed as the next important drama actor among his peers.
At this point, HN is lacking a homegrown talent who can make a mark in acting. As YV had an impressive performance in one of his first movies, plus his boyish looks, HN placed its bet for him to be the next big discovery. Thus, in a project, he was paired off with Pretty Actress (PA) and supported by a cast comprising seasoned performers. Unfortunately, the series, which has an interesting storyline, failed to create a buzz.
The network, however, had faith, and continued to give him as much exposure. Then, he was paired with singer actress (SA) in an exciting show. As always, SA delivered and YV was competent in his role in the show. As HN is known for projects that dare to be different and technically advanced, YV was trusted with a big role in a very big project. Well, the timing was not as good, as the new series failed to hit it big in the ratings chart.
As for YV, he allegedly had to repeat a scene not once, not twice, and not even thrice! Lucky for him, the director and the veteran performers were so supportive that they helped him reach the depth of the role. If the director were different, then a walkout might have ensued as YV hit beyond 30 retakes. Kibitzers could not help but compare him with the other actors who have portrayed a similar role but nailed it with ease. Yes, they blamed his youth and lack of acting as culprits for the awful day.
Will HN continue to build up YV now that this problem has been revealed? On the one hand, will YV own up to his weakness and attend workshops to improve his craft? On the other hand, will YV be stubborn like a former HN talent who refused to attend acting workshops, and thus has earned a certain nickname when his acting, rather, lack of it, is evident? Although HN might seem to be focusing on YV for now, it does have a stable of homegrown good-looking and more talented actors. The problem is that they are younger than YV and have yet to break away from the loveteam angles.
