Time goes back a week ago.

Nicole Kidman had just received an audition for the casting of the actress in a film from Miramax Films.

She didn't believe it at first.

But after repeated confirmation by the agent, she finally believed it.

Then there's the excitement.

I am excited that I have come to Hollywood for so many years, and I finally got through, and finally someone appreciated me and was willing to give myself such an important role as the heroine.

Although it was only an audition.

But this is the heroine's audition, and it was not she who recommended herself, but someone else took the initiative to invite her.

What does this mean?

This means that the other party is at least optimistic about her, optimistic that she has a certain potential or meets the requirements of the heroine somewhere.

Whether it's in or out of the play......

Next, she also found out some things about this movie through her agent.

A comedy movie with a $30 million investment, the actor is a comedian who is not very famous, and the director's fame is okay.

The combination of these things is really not very good in Hollywood movies.

If it is Nicole Kidman in the future, let alone an audition invitation for the heroine, maybe even if it is the heroine, she will not even look at it.

But now she is just a newcomer who has only been in Hollywood from Australia for three years. Although in the past three years, he has participated in supporting roles in more than a dozen movies, and participated in auditions for hundreds of movies...... But the only time she was a heroine was in a garbage action movie with an investment of more than $10 million.

The box office of the film was a fiasco, and in this movie, she is just a pure vase.

But then again, after coming to Hollywood for three years, you can participate in supporting roles in more than a dozen movies, and you can also be a heroine once, even if it's just a garbage action movie with an investment of more than 10 million. Compared with thousands of other people in Hollywood, Nicole Kidman is already very lucky.

But......

It's not that she's lucky to have the opportunity to perform these shows. But in fact, Nicole Kidman has two very good natural conditions compared to other actresses who come to Hollywood.

The first natural condition is that she is really naturally beautiful, based on her appearance alone, even in Hollywood, there are few people who are beautiful to her level, and the kind of fair skin that seems to glow is rare even among European and American whites.

This is an external condition.

And the other condition is also external, and this other condition is that she happens to be an Australian.

As we all know, in Hollywood, there is an unspoken rule that discriminates against foreigners. Even British actors of the same kind have to pay much more than local American actors if they want to get ahead in Hollywood. Especially now in 1990, when capital has not yet entered Hollywood in a big way, this discrimination is even more obvious.

It was not until the next century that the status of foreign actors was improved to a certain extent because of the large-scale entry of capital and the decline of the box office status in North America.

But it is precisely because of this discrimination that actors from the same country in Hollywood often get together.

In order to resist this discrimination in Hollywood, they huddled together to keep warm and used the strength of the team to counteract this discrimination.

And among these groups of foreign actors, Hollywood actors from Australia are almost the most united part.

Therefore.

Nicole Kidman is favored by some other Australian actors and behind-the-scenes workers, who are optimistic that she can make a career in Hollywood in the future, and is vaguely helping her. Relying on her excellent appearance and the Australian gang in Hollywood, Nicole Kidman has many more opportunities than other Hollywood newcomers who have just debuted.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Hollywood Australia Gang that Nicole Kidman began to pay attention to the heroine of this comedy movie that seems to be no big deal.

Because an Australian middle-level manager in Miramax Films secretly revealed some news about Nicole Kidman when Nicole Kidman attended a Hollywood Australian gang party.

"Miramax Films has changed owners, and the Weinstein brothers are working for their bosses from now on!"

"The boss has deep pockets and bought Miramax Films for $100 million. and immediately injected $30 million to shoot a comedy movie. ”

"The new boss is a 19-year-old young man, the same super genius who sold a new drug patent to a pharmaceutical company for $300 million not long ago. ”

"It is said that the script was written by the boss, and the actors were also chosen by the boss...... He named the comedian who was not famous to play the leading role, and also named some beautiful female stars to participate in the audition of the heroine. ”

"The boss also personally asked to host the audition for the heroine......"

“……”

From the inside story revealed by these other parties, the ambitious Nicole Kidman analyzed several things.

The boss is a young genius with abundant funds, and he has $300 million at the age of 19. Making a movie may be a ticket game, and I don't care about the box office...... If you care about the box office, you can't spend $30 million to make a comedy movie, and you are not a famous guy from the lead actor to the heroine to the director.

If you can bring in the best comedians at the moment for $30 million at the box office to shoot a movie that can at least pay off, how can you pick some unfamous ones like now.

There is also the last piece of information, the boss actually made a clear request that he would host the heroine audition.

Hehe...... Since the end of Hollywood's blatant red sofa era, no film company boss has dared to take matters into person.

Even if there is an unspoken rule, it is often through a broker or agent. The investor is good enough to say this to the actresses who were invited to audition, although he has not said it directly. But in doing so, he was almost saying to them:

"Do you want a role?

Hehe.

This should be a bad movie.

After the self-analysis was over, Nicole Kidman made a judgment.

But......

She decided to take the opportunity anyway!

What's wrong with a bad movie?

No matter how bad it is, it's still the heroine, and no matter how bad it is, it's bad in her last movie? No matter how bad it is, because of the special ability of the two brothers in Miramax Films, the Oscars don't count on it, but some awards at the Golden Globe Awards, as long as the other party is willing to contribute, maybe you can expect it!

The Weinstein brothers, despite their reputation, were not good people. But their ability to distribute and PR awards has also become more and more famous in recent years.

What's more, they also have a young male boss named on their head and asked to participate in the heroine audition in person.

This pair of Nicole Kidman, who came to Hollywood and always wanted to find a big tree to hug him, can be regarded as an opportunity. The tree she originally picked was Tom Hanks. But this tree can't be held for the time being because he went to Europe to film.

It is impossible for her to miss this opportunity and waste half a year in order to wait for this tree.

Nicole decided to give it a try.

Try hugging this young, purposeful tree.

Therefore.

After a long time of preparation and the help of some fellow Hollywood Australians, there was a "coincidence" that Nicole Kidman, who was dressed very beautifully, fell in front of Abel and Harvey.

That's right.

She calculates the time and the coincidence of the place

Hehe.

There are no coincidences in Hollywood.
