211 Gearing up

"When is the audition?" Lan Li closed the script, he was a little eager to try, and he couldn't help but start to accelerate the circulation of blood, which made him a little excited. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Andy looked at Lan Li in front of him, stunned, and then smiled dumbly, "You look excited." Lan Li shrugged his shoulders with a smile on his face, not denying it.

The apprehension in his heart gradually calmed down, and Andy probed with great interest, "You seem to be more interested than the 'speed and excitement' just now. I thought you'd be more into the action genre. "Comparatively, comedy requires actors to break the shackles, abandon their baggage, and unload their reserves.

Lan Li retorted with a smile, "I thought you wanted to see this outcome. Otherwise, Andy would not have put the script of "Evil Boss" in the back.

Of course, what Andy said is also true. Purely from the audience's point of view, Lan Li prefers "Fast and Exciting / Emotional 5", this movie has a high degree of completion, adrenaline is completely outrushed, there is no urine point in the whole process, it is done in one go, hearty, but from the standpoint of the actor, the challenge of "Evil Boss" is also more difficult, and there is more room to play. What's more, Lan Li has always been interested in comedy performances.

In the face of Lan Li's rebuttal, Andy gently retracted his jaw and did not argue, but after thinking about it, he asked again, "So, you are more interested than 'love is crazy'?"

"Haha. Lan Li laughed directly, the stars in the depths of his eyes were flickering, "There's no point in comparison, isn't it?Why are you chasing after this matter?"

Andy said seriously, "This is my job, understand your value orientation, and only then can I find a more suitable script in the future, isn't it?" Then, the smile on the corner of Andy's mouth outlined again, "However, your answer is already obvious." It seems that you still prefer 'Love Crazy', which makes me more and more curious, what kind of script is it that makes you love it so much, does this mean that 'Love Crazy' is better than 'Buried Alive'?"

"Of course. Lan Li did not evade this time, and simply gave a positive answer.

"Evil Boss" is indeed a work worth challenging, not only in terms of comedy and the brilliance of the script and the characters themselves, but in comparison, "Love Crazy" is first and foremost a work full of countless challenges, and secondly, it is a work that Lan Li personally likes very much. If it was a choice between the two, Lan Li would undoubtedly choose the latter, which did not require much hesitation.

If you miss the "evil boss", there will be a chance to challenge the comedy next time, but if you miss the "love is crazy", you will really miss it.

Andy retracted his jaw again, his eyes showed a thoughtful look, and after a pause of about two seconds, he retracted his thoughts and said, "I still need to make temporary arrangements for the audition time." As soon as you nod your head, I'll start calling right now to see exactly when they have time. You know, our time has to follow their schedule. However, it will definitely happen in Telluride. ”

Lan Li nodded, indicating that he understood, "If you are a 'bad boss', which role do they want me to play?"

"I'm not sure. Andy had already pulled out his phone and rummaged through the phone book inside, "In fact, Bright Ratner wants to create an all-star lineup, with three staff members and three bosses all using big stars with box office appeal - at least actors who are familiar to the audience, and I've already said some news that many big names are interested in the script." ”

Andy's eyes stayed on the phone screen, and he had entered work mode, but the words in his mouth did not pause, and he looked like he could do both, "The group of people in the Rotten Boys, Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, and then Ashton-Kutcher (Ashton-Kutcher), Matthew McConaughey, and these cream boys are also interested. The biggest names, I've heard the names of Tom Cruise, Jeff Bridges, Philip-Seymour-Hoffman, Kevin-Spacey...... So, we still need to fight for it. ”

Raising his head, Andy saw the smile on the corner of Lan Li's mouth, "What's wrong?" Andy thought something was wrong, but Lan Li waved his hand, indicating that it was okay, Andy nodded, and then dialed the phone number, "Didn't you plan to go out to the movies? Are you sure you didn't miss the opening time?" As he spoke, Andy walked outside the balcony and got busy.

Matthew McConaughey, Creamy Raw. Lan Li forgot that the current Matthew is not the actor who later achieved positive results, but is still a vase mixed in a romantic comedy, which is really a bit joyful.

However, as Andy said, the "evil boss" was indeed an all-star cast in the last life, with Kevin Spacey, Jennifer-Aniston and Colin-Farrell as the boss, and Jason-Bateman, Charlie-Day and Jason-Sudeikis as the staff.

These six people can be said to be familiar faces who often appear in comedy, among which Jennifer Aniston, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis are all actors who have been giving wonderful comedy performances on the TV screen for a long time, and after stepping onto the big screen, comedy works are also at their fingertips.

It is conceivable that the casting audition of the "evil boss" is bound to be very intense, relying on strength alone, it is not enough to win, you must rely on Andy's connections to help, otherwise you may not even get the opportunity to audition. What's more, Lan Li himself doesn't have any "comedy strength", and he doesn't even know how he should show his comedy talent when he auditions.

I wonder which role they'd want him to audition for? If so, which role should he audition for? What kind of charm should he show when he auditions? The hubris of Clark-Gable in "One Night/Flow"? Or the bubbly jump of Jack-Lemmon in "Passionate"?

The more I think about it, the more interesting it becomes, the more interesting it is, the style of comedy is varied, and each actor has his own characteristics, so what kind of comedy style is his style? He doesn't have a clear concept and train of thought now, which is much more difficult than "Pacific War" and "Buried Alive".

"Are you still here?" Andy said in surprise as he returned to the room, looking at Lan Li who was sitting on the sofa and deep in thought, "What about your movie at night?" But before Lan Li could answer, he spoke into the microphone again, "...... Yes, then tonight, no problem, I'll go now. ”

After hanging up the phone, Andy met Lan Li's inquiring gaze, "I asked Neil H. Moretz to have dinner in the evening, how about it, are you going to come over?"

"'Fast & Thrill/Emotion 5'?" Lan Li raised his final note, receiving an affirmative reply from Andy.

Lan Li originally thought that the audition for "Evil Boss" would be easier to arrange, after all, Andy got the script of "Evil Boss", and it sounded like an old friend between words, and "Fast and Exciting / Love 5" may have to wait until the day after tomorrow. But I didn't expect that dinner had already been arranged. From this side, it can also be seen that the urgency of the crew of "Fast and Exciting / Love 5", but, is this good news or bad news for Lan Li?

"Of course. Lan Li nodded without hesitation, and since he decided to give it a try, he went straight ahead, "Let's go now?"

Andy was very satisfied with Lan Li's reaction, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, we'll go to the restaurant now, and Neil will come over later." Then I looked up and down Lan Li's dress - originally Lan Li was for the film festival, and it was easy and convenient to wear, but unexpectedly, such a casual dress just fit the style of "Fast and Excitement/Love 5", if it is a "bad boss", you need to change your suit. "Okay, no problem, let's go now. ”

The festival aside, Telluride is a ski resort and has a celebration all year round, plus many wealthy people come to the festival. As a result, there are a lot of high-spending places in the town, and people even joke that the cost here is comparable to that of Hawaii, which has the highest average consumption of any state in the United States.

Lan Li looked at the Italian family-style restaurant where he was in, the stove against the wall was burning red, and the dark red booths lined up along the glass windows of the exterior wall could clearly see the handmade pizza being baked in the stove, the high card seat backs separated the seats from each other, like a natural soundproof wall, and the bartender in a suit and leather shoes stood in the palatial bar, and the well-dressed, gray-haired foreman manager carried the elegance and poise of an Italian man.

Such a scene reminds Lan Li of the bars in Martin Scorsese's movies where Italian gangsters gather.

"It's a good place to talk. Andy seemed to sense the inquiry in Lan Li's eyes, and explained, "Otherwise, choose a French restaurant." ”

"It's very New York. Lan Li made an evaluation, which made Andy wonder, "So in this case, I chose the wrong place." "The "Fast & Thrilling" series is a Los Angeles movie in its bones.

Lan Li nodded solemnly, "It would be nice if you chose a Mexican restaurant." ”

Andy couldn't help but chuckle, "Looks like we're not late. A voice came from next to the booth, interrupting Andy and Lan Li's conversation.

One second, the voice seemed to be still at the door, and it sounded from afar, and the next second, the other party was already standing next to the booth, and the posture was really impressive.

What came into view was first a bald head, then a bald head, and behind the two bald heads there were people standing, and the whole army was not spectacular. Lan Li has not participated in one-on-one private auditions, so I don't know the situation very well, could it be that the auditions in private are the same as in public, and the agents and producers of the actors' union must be present, if you add the casting director, crew director, etc., Lala is a big team?

What's more, the big bald head in front of him was not an unfamiliar face to meet for the first time, it was Vin Diesel - shouldn't he be in full swing for filming? Why in Telluride?

The fright was not over, the bustling crowd came over, a bright face appeared in sight, and he kindly extended his right hand, "Good evening!" This is not Paul Walker, or who?
