2972 Actors]
Robert Eiger nodded, not resisting the move.
Xia Tian is the creator of the script. During the creation process, he will naturally consider the issue of actors. It is easier for him to recommend actors to fit the role.
Many Hollywood film and television dramas will refer to the screenwriter's opinions when selecting actors. Of course, the first condition is that the screenwriter's qualifications must be sufficient, and the new screenwriter will not enjoy this kind of treatment.
"Mr. Xia, please tell me who you like." Robert Eiger smiled.
"Okay, I hope Lin Xilei will star in the drama "Charlie's Angels". "Xia Tian said immediately.
Lin Xilei was born in 1975 and graduated from the University of California in the United States. He received a bachelor's degree in economics and arts. In 1994, he was discovered in Hong Kong in the summer to develop.
Because of his beautiful appearance, hot figure and cool temperament, he became famous immediately after his debut. He starred in many movies such as "The Demonic", "Yin Yang Road", "The Gambler vs. Las Vegas", etc., and made a big name in the entertainment industry.
However, because Hong Kong movies have gradually become lonely in recent years, Lin Xilei's career has also declined. He has not appeared in a decent movie for more than two years.
Fortunately, with the support of summer, her life is not a problem. But for her, life is not just about food, drink, defecation, and dreams. She actually always wanted to come to Hollywood to develop, but she has not had any good opportunities in recent years.
Because Hollywood attaches great importance to acting, even for vase actors, their acting skills are very good. For example, Megan Fox, Jessica Alba, Charlize Theron, etc., when they first entered the film and television industry, they were mainly vase roles. However, their acting skills were very good.
Lin Xilei's acting skills are just a slutty figure and figure. Her appearance does not have an advantage in Hollywood, so it is naturally difficult to get along in Hollywood. However, this "Charlie's Angels" is a female action movie. The actor's acting skills are not the first priority. The key is to rely on his skills.
Lin Xilei is quite good because she has a good time doing yoga and Pilates, and when filming in Hong Kong, she also received basic training in martial arts.
So she is quite competent in the drama "Charlie's Angels".
The original version was played by Liu Yuling, but Liu Yuling has already starred in "The Matrix" and has become famous through this film, so she no longer needs this small role.
...
"Lin Xilei is..." Robert Eiger said in a little puzzled manner.
"Oh, she is one of my friends, a close friend." Xia Tian explained obscurely.
Robert Eiger nodded immediately without asking any more questions.
It is also popular in Hollywood. The reason why Catherine Zeta Jones married Michael Douglas, who is twenty-five years older than him, and Aston Kutch married Demi Moore, who is sixteen years older than him, is that without exception, it is all about using the other party's power in the circle to expand his career.
Therefore, it is normal for Xia Tian to recommend his "close friends" to star in a movie, and Robert Eiger doesn't care about this.
"But Mr. Xia, I hope she can be competent for this role," he added immediately.
If the role recommended by Xia Tian is too bad, he doesn't want to use it. If a movie invests tens of millions of dollars, if the actors are chosen incorrectly, it will likely affect the box office and cause losses.
Even if Xia Tian is the chairman, he cannot be so willful. After all, the company is not his own, and there are many shareholders' interests that need protection.
"Don't worry, if she is not competent, I won't recommend it to you." Xia Tian smiled.
"That's good." Robert Eiger nodded.
...
"Beautiful Mind" starring Russell Crowe and Jennifer Connery." Xia Tian said immediately.
The original "Beautiful Mind" was starring both of them, which was quite exciting. Jennifer Connery also won the Best Supporting Actress Award for this.
"No problem, I think both of them are suitable." Robert Eiger immediately said.
Russell Crowe has been very popular with movies such as "The Lawless", "Los Angeles City Secret", and "Gladiator". He has a very high reputation and also demonstrates outstanding acting skills. Therefore, there is no problem in "Beautiful Mind".
Jennifer Connery's development in recent years has also been quite gratifying. With the support of summer, she has starred in "Edward Scissor Hand", "I'm Crazy for Mary", "Apollo 13", etc.
The reputation and box office of these movies are very good, which has made Jennifer Connery's position in Hollywood become higher and higher, and he has reached the top level.
In his previous life, without the support of summer, Jennifer Connery's position in Hollywood was only a second-tier. This also shows how great a film tycoon played.
...
Both candidates for "Beautiful Mind" are undoubtedly true, and Xia Tian immediately recommended candidates for "Fast and Furious".
The reason why Anne Hathaway was not recommended was mainly because Xia Tian had no idea where she was now.
In her previous life, before starring in "The Princess Diary", Anne Hathaway was an ordinary newcomer. She was selected from the auditioners of three thousand people and became famous.
The same is true in this life. Xia Tian didn’t know where she was or what she was doing. Perhaps because of the butterfly effect, she had no intention of being an actor at all. Then it would be a mistake to recommend her, so let Robert Eiger audition herself.
"I want Vin Diesel to star in the lead role of "Fast and Furious", Xia Tian said immediately.
In fact, the early protagonist of the movie "Fast and Furious" is actually Brian played by Paul Walker. The most distinctive example is in "Fast and Furious 2", which continues to tell the story of Brian cracking the money laundering case, and Vin Diesel did not appear in the sequel.
However, Xia Tian knew that the protagonist of "Fast and Furious" was actually Dominic. This character is loyal and courageous, and is the real leader.
Under Vin Diesel's acting career, Dominic burst out with a greater charm than Brian and attracted more attention. Therefore, in the subsequent sequels, Dominic's role gradually increased and gradually became the most important and indispensable core character of the family.
Vin Diesel debuted in 1990s. Because of his poor appearance, he could only play supporting roles in the early days. In 1995, the small-budget film "Thousand Faces" starring him participated in the Sundance Film Festival. This is a film festival specially organized for independent filmmakers, and the films exhibited are all small-budget.
"The Thousand Faces" received good reviews at the film festival. Although it did not sell much copyright, Vin Diesel attracted the attention of the industry, and then there were more opportunities to star in the movie.
But so far, he has not appeared in a masterpiece with a cost of over 10 million yuan. He is an absolute third-tier actor.
