Chapter 1316 Casting (23)
In this era, Jason Statham looks very young, just an ordinary actor who is roaming around in Hollywood. He has taken over a dozen small roles and no one knows him on the road. There are too many actors like him in Hollywood. . The fastest update is
After meeting in the capital Las Vegas a few years ago, Han Xuan did not give Statham much help and helped arrange important supporting roles in "The Expendables", which has made people say that he has lost his luck. This is the largest film plan this year with Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Shang Yundon, Bruce Willis and others, investing $130 million.
He has given the characters in "The Expendables" and now he has to give the characters in "The Meow" again. After Statham expressed his gratitude countless times, the two stood in the corridor and started chatting.
Gabriel wondered why the boss was so enthusiastic about him. After looking at him, he found that Statham's muscles were very good, and his similar people were similar. When they met strong men, they must first look at the other person's figure.
"What are you doing?" Han Xuan's speech was filled with surprise: "Have you been a supporting role in "The Real Beauty of Lady" and "Romeo and Juliet"?
No, no, don't do this again in the future, it will ruin you.
With your appearance, you should act in a muscle movie, fight Schwarzenegger and others on the screen, and then learn how to perform, and you will succeed."
I thought Han Xuan was not in charge of the family and didn’t know how expensive it is to get a lot of food, oil and salt. Statham smiled bitterly when he heard this: “I have been learning performances. I found those two characters myself. I also want to fight with Mr. Schwarzenegger, but I don’t have a chance.
After "The Suicide Squad" is released this time, the situation should be better. After becoming famous, the resources of the agent company will be tilted. Now that you have received your role, the agent will definitely be very happy."
He had promised Han Xuan that he would participate, and he didn't even ask what role he played, and he agreed in one go. People with muscles like to solve problems with force, and they don't like to think when their fists move too much, such as the big bald Owen bodyguard.
Statham was not stupid at all. When he came in from the gate of Dimen Pictures, he saw so many people and knew how much attention this movie with a strange name was. There were almost ten people competing for the small supporting roles that were not important in normal times. This time there were about forty or fifty, which was several times more.
“Didn’t the agent help you arrange it?
Don't worry, you will definitely become popular after "The Expendables" is released."
Han Xuan patted his shoulder and said, Jason Statham is 1.8 meters tall. Standing next to Gabriel and the others, he can only be considered a small person, especially compared with Irving, he is several sizes smaller.
"My agent arranged many opportunities, but they were all unimportant supporting roles, with only twenty-one lines at most.
My agent brings eight clients in total, and often auditions for small roles, but not necessarily getting opportunities.”
"If you change the agent, I will praise you. I believe they will give you this face. If you have an excellent agent to help you, you will have more opportunities to become famous."
“…Thank you again.
I will remember what you did for me, but you really want to praise me?"
"Of course, you are the star I discovered. If I don't get paid $10 million, how embarrassing would I be?"
Statham would find it ridiculous to say such words, but the boy talking in front of him is Han Xuan, which is worth thinking about it carefully.
The heart was certain, and the breath became heavy. If Han Xuan was a woman, maybe Statham would have devoted himself to this sentence.
Hollywood's unspoken rules are not distinguished between men and women. In fact, this kind of thing is not called unspoken rules at all, and is called "rules of the game" openly.
Marilyn Monroe wrote in her autobiography: "Yes, I went to bed with the producer, everyone was like that, if you don't do it, there was another girl waiting outside the door; I don't remember how many times, squatted down and unzipped their zippers."
Leave after a brief chat.
Han Xuan asked the company's employees and entered the house where Mr. Joe Kemp was.
There are actors holding a thin manuscript at the door, dressed in strange clothes, showing the appearance of the characters according to their own understanding.
When he came here, Han Xuan received countless smiles in order to leave a good impression in his mind. Unfortunately, thousands of troops crossed the single-plank bridge, and most actors were destined to be sad.
In the room, an old actor was performing, playing the butler without any manuscript, wearing a tuxedo I found from somewhere, and was already in his fifties.
When he accidentally saw Han Xuan, he became stuttering because of excitement, and finally he was unable to sigh and his shoulders collapsed. Usually, such an accident during audition means no chance.
"Wait." Seeing a few people preparing to score, Han Xuan stopped them, raised his head and smiled at the old actor, saying, "I'm sorry for disturbing you just now, you can perform again.
These two beards are very interesting. The housekeepers in my house don’t have beards. It will be very strange in reality, but it is different in movies.”
"My God, thank you so much. Hug... Sorry, I stutter when I get nervous, but it's okay when there are lines."
Kemp had already devoted himself to his directorial role, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, sir.
The stuttering housekeeper is even more interesting and will help you get extra points.”
The old actor's eyes lit up, and he repeated the performance just now. He only said seven or eight sentences, and he stuttered halfway. He finished his performance quickly and bowed and walked out.
Generally, the actors are not decided on the spot, and even if they have selected the right candidate, they will not. Some people have been preparing for the interview for a long time and always have to give them a chance to show it.
Many low-level actors know that the chances are slim, so they can only adopt the tactic of casting a wide net to cut off people who are famous, and hope to make a living by acting. Even so, it is difficult to achieve.
He specialized in his profession, and Han Xuan stood by and watched without talking nonsense.
It was about a minute after one person, and soon after the role of the housekeeper was chosen, an interviewer went out to prepare the actors who played the nanny.
"Actually, there are ready-made characters in my family, all of which are more professional than them, but forget it, how many characters have been solved?"
"At the beginning, you can choose it in about two days, and the shooting will last a long time. As long as you choose the previous role, you don't have to worry about the rest for the time being.
Han, the most important thing now is to choose the heroine. They just told me that you told me not to choose. Have you made any arrangements?"
