Unexpected Hero

The unexpected hero is someone who the audience wouldn't usually associate with being the 'world saver' there the sort of character who's just in the right place at the right time or just happens to be the one person within a storyline who either has all the answers or has that little brain wave which solves everything. They don't have to be brave or tough, they just have to be able to handle the situation they are faced with by any means necessary. A classic example of this would be Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter series who often turns out to be 'The unexpected hero' most notably in the last film in which he is seen saving Ron and Hermione from Voldermorts snake. They may either be simple bystanders caught up in a situation or actually fighting for a cause. Unexpected hero's don't tend have a set dress-code as it could be anyone, at anytime in anyplace under any circumstances. It just happens to be there day.

The character is useful for us to look at because it given us an option as to what we could include within our production and gives us an insight as to what an unexpected hero really is.
