4-On a whim, auditions for a minor part in a movie. It's a hit, and he decides he like acting.

5-Over time becomes moderately famous, mainly in Atlas for his critically acclaimed portrayal of the king of Mantle.

6-Takes hunting jobs between making movies, eventually coming to the defense of Vale against the Grimm horde before the Battle of Beacon begins. (He was in Vale researching a potential role, hit a block, thought going out and killing some Grimm might help him)

7-Either dies or is injured (loses right arm), haven't decided yet.

First of all, Atlas is the closest thing in Remnant to a real military academy.....I doubt their students would have enough time to audition for a movie (even if for a minor role).

And in case you think of using FNKY as an argument, let me tell you: We've seen their clothes and personalities and weapons, nothing more.

Changing Atlas for a more....open Academy, like Beacon, or (if you want to preserve the idea of a long-term relationship) Haven or Shade, would make the whole thing more believable.

Now, taking the wording by the letter...."meets a girl from Beacon at one of the Vytal Tournaments".....so, it wasn't necesarily after graduating, nor the same festival where the Battle of Beacon happened?

Third of all, his father was a Musician, his mother a Huntress, the guy becomes an Actor.....it becomes easy to see what he would work in: Musicals. He would practically live on Remnant's Broadway, with Hunter jobs from time to time for whatever reason.

Though I don't think there's as much free-time compared to working on actual Movies. Then again, you can work around that by using Movie adaptations of Musicals.

Now, regarding the "dies or is injured" part....that's up to you. If his death won't really serve a purpose, don't kill him. Injury is a good option, though not necesarily it has to be losing an arm.
