Bemused cast (6)

I believe the answer is:

thrown

I believe this is a double definition.

'bemused' is the first definition.
(throw can mean to confuse or bemuse)

'cast' is the second definition.
(cast can mean to throw)

(Other definitions for thrown that I've seen before include "Unsettled" , "Rabindranath ---, Indian sage" , "Disconcerted, confused" , "Defeated" , "Hurled, flung" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
