With the overwhelming success of the One Piece live-action, the hype surrounding the show is reaching new heights, and the announcement of Lera Abova joining the show as Nico Robin has sparked joy among the fans. For fans, she ticks all the necessary criteria for the character, and her prior experience before she bagged the role has convinced them that she’s the right actress for the role.
But before she bagged the role, her life was in turmoil. She left like each day was more difficult than the previous one. However, she did not give up on her dreams, as she was an ardent believer of what The Austrian Oak, Arnold Schwarzenegger, said about pursuing one’s dream.
The actress took the wise words seriously and even recently took to her Instagram, sharing a post where she shared the wise words of the veteran actor; she engraved those words in her mind and explained how time will make everything right.
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Words of Wisdom Helped Lera Abova Bag Her Dream Role
Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece has become a cultural phenomenon, and after the series received a live adaptation by Netflix, its popularity skyrocketed. The show’s selling point was how it was true to the source material and the cast was absolutely perfect.
The show did not disappoint when they started preparing for the production of the second season of the adaptation, where they added Lera Abova for the role of Miss All Sunday.
Though her casting was met with skepticism initially, a photoshopped picture of her changed the opinions of the fans. However, her journey was not easy, and she decided to share it with the Nakamas after she received some much-needed help from the fans.
Recently, Abova (@leraabova) took to her Instagram on her birthday, where she shared a post penning down about her state of mind and how Arnold Schwarzenegger’s golden words changed her life for the better. She said,
The past few years have been, if not hell, then a personal purgatory on earth. Yet within a year, my life changed in ways I never thought were possible as everything I believed in shattered. Somehow I just could not accept that my dreams weren’t real. But as the wise guru Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “If I can see it, it must be achievable.” (or something like that).
She further explained how life can be unpredictable and would hand out “sorrow and agony,” but you must not cave in because when you have overcome those days, it will all feel as if it happened for a reason. She further wrote,
Life brings sorrow and agony, so you cherish the moments when you’re rewarded, and eventually, your suffering and pain will make sense – as if it all indeed happened for a reason. Make it make sense. Cherish your life, your time, and the people who love you – because you never know when they’ll be gone.
Nevertheless, the words of wisdom from the Anna actress resonated deeply among the fans as they took to the post to share some love and wishes with her.
