Normally, Hollywood stars don't audition.

Stars, like directors, are booked by producers at the beginning of a film project. Then the producer takes the list of directors and stars, goes to the investor to attract investment, and finds the studio to prepare the project.

Auditions are usually for young actors or mass actors.

That's not the model for Down Pictures, at least not yet.

Tang En's films are still built with Tang En as the core, and only the films that Tang En agrees to can be filmed.

Because most of the actors who participated in this audition were very famous, Down Pictures also provided the best audition environment, not in the humble and awkward location of the studio, but chose the Hilton Hotel.

Downe Pictures has booked twenty rooms here for twenty actresses who auditioned.

They can put on makeup, rehearse, communicate, rest, and then look their best to audition for the presidential suit, while also avoiding the awkward situation of meeting other actresses.

Although everyone knows each other, and even many of them are still friends, they are competitors at the moment. Donne's films, in particular, are so attractive that no one will be polite.

Don didn't have a bureaucratic style, and went to every guest room very kindly, and simply greeted the actors to let them relax.

"Uma, wow, you're so beautiful today, and you look well prepared?" Donn was the first to arrive at Uma Thurman's room.

She was nervously communicating with her agent, and there were six or seven assistants around her, who were busy with a serious face.

Seeing Don walk in, Uma Thurman was stunned at first, then rejoiced, "Mr. Walker? I'm sorry, I'm ...... I'm talking about work and haven't noticed you. ”

Don smiled, "It's okay, I'm just coming over to see if you need help." ”

"No, no, everything is fine here!" Uma Thurman thanked him heartily, "I've been to so many auditions, and it's the first time I've worked in such a good environment." ”

Don said with a smile: "If you can come to this audition, you will already give me face, and of course we must provide the best preparation environment." ”

Uma Thurman bit her lip and hesitated, "Mr. Walker, thank you for giving me this audition, I ...... Quentin and I are friends, and Harvey and I are just general friends. ”

Her famous work is "Vulgar", with Miramax and Harvey Weinstein, and now she is going to make "Kill Bill" again, and the collaborator is still Harvey Weinstein.

Industry insiders know that Donn and Harvey Weinstein have a tense relationship, and Uma Thurman's identity is naturally a little sensitive.

Tang En waved his hand and said indifferently: "I'm not so stingy, he's him, you're you......!" Uma, you should know better than me what that person's character is, cooperate with him, I hope you can be more careful. ”

Uma Thurman's eyes turned red in an instant.

Tang En was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly widened, "He bullied you?"

"I didn't ...... No. ”

"That bastard, I can't spare him!"

"No, no, Mr. Walker, you're mistaken, I'm friends with Quentin, he'...... He can protect me. ”

Tang En's face sank, and he snorted coldly, "One is a big producer, the other is a small actor, how do you think he will choose?" Forget it, since you don't want to say it, I won't ask, but ...... Harvey Weinstein's bastard, I'm not going to let it go sooner or later, if you need help, you can come to me. ”

"Thank you. ”

Uma Thurman breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing whether to be relieved or bitter.

After leaving here, Donn went to Jennifer Aniston, Neve Campbell, Denise Lee Richards, Mary Louise Parker, Diane Mayer, Linda Fiorentino, Robin Tony, and Winona Ryder's rooms for a brief greeting.

Everyone was very polite and very friendly to Donn.

But because of age, they didn't behave excessively with each other.

"Chicago" is a musical and dance film, the main actors are all women, but most of them are not vase roles, and they need to have excellent acting skills and stage performance experience.

Therefore, most of the actresses who participated in the election were between the ages of thirty and forty.

Don wasn't very interested, and they didn't dare to take the initiative to move forward.

It wasn't until Don came to Catherine Zeta-Jones's room that he saw a smiling face as beautiful as a flower, "Donne?"

Tang En was slightly stunned, a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

It turned out to be Rachel Weisz!

"We're good friends, we've known each other since we were in England. ”

"Oh, really?" Donn gave her a deep look, then glanced at Catherine Zeta-Jones, who was smiling, "Then in the chemistry test, the two of you can work together, maybe you can produce a wonderful chemical reaction." ”

Rachel Weisz looked delighted, "Okay!"

Catherine Zeta-Jones couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mr. Walker, what are you saying...... Does that mean we don't have to participate in the first round of auditions, and we can go straight to the chemistry test?"

Don snorted, "The cutscene still has to go." ”

In the original "Chicago", Catherine Zeta-Jones' performance was very good, and she won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Don held this audition mainly to choose another actress, who was not satisfied with Renee Zellweger's performance in the original version.

As for Rachel Weisz...... was originally a good old friend, and it was only natural for her to pass the first round.

Catherine Zeta-Jones cleared the staff out, and Rachel Weisz came to Donn's side unabashedly, took his arm, and said half-coquettishly, "Why don't you go to my house?"

"Too busy at work. ”

"And what about this rush?"

"Ahem......"

Don glanced at Catherine Zeta-Jones and coughed twice, "Rachel, this is the workplace, pay attention to the impact." ”

Catherine Zeta-Jones smiled and said, "It's okay, or ...... Shall I give you the room?"

Before the words fell, I saw her face change.

Rachel Weisz also let go of Donn's arm at the right time, revealing a slight sneer, "Mr. Douglas. ”

Douglas?

Don was slightly stunned, looked back, and sure enough, he saw Catherine Zeta-Jones's husband - Michael Douglas at the door.

"Sorry to bother you?"

"Hehe, it's okay. ”

Don held back his anger, looked at Michael Douglas, who was almost sixty years old in front of him, and then thought of the glamorous and beautiful Catherine Zeta-Jones just now, and he had the feeling of flowers being planted in cow dung.

No way, who said that the Douglas family is very influential in Hollywood?

For a female star, being able to enter such a big family will be of great help to her life and career, as for the 25-year-old age gap, who cares?

"Mike, I think you're mistaken, isn't it an audition for the actor today, not to mention ...... Chicago is a musical and dance film, and you're not the right age. ”

Tang En was dissatisfied, did not give the other party, and directly pointed out the shortcomings of his age.

But the old husband and young wife, this kind of joke Michael Douglas has long been used to it, and said with a smile: "I'm not for the actor, hehe, I just didn't have a job today, so I accompanied my wife and came over to have a look." ”

The corners of Tang En's mouth twitched slightly, and he nodded, "Okay, I won't bother you, I'll go upstairs to prepare." ”

Rachel Weisz leaves with Donn.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Don's face instantly became gloomy, and he shouted angrily: "Old thing!"

Rachel Weisz pursed her lips tightly and said hesitantly, "Mr. Douglas...... I think I want to use the influence of the family to help Catherine win this role, I heard that he used to always come forward in person, talk to the producer, and fight for the role for her. ”

"The influence of the family?" Tang En was quite disdainful and snorted coldly, "I'm afraid it's more than that!"

Rachel Weisz hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Old husband and young wife, he will definitely be extra careful, and your reputation is ...... In fact, Catherine and I have complained many times, and she does not like Mr. Douglas's way of surveillance. ”

Tang En said coldly: "When he was in the crew of "Poison Network", he has always been very vigilant, and now he is in "Chicago", and he still comes with me, do you really think this little trick can deal with me? In the whole of Hollywood, there is only one I don't want to do, and there is no woman I can't eat!"

Rachel Weisz obviously heard the meaning of Donne's words, and asked tentatively, "Donn, are you ...... Interested in her?"

"Huh?"

Don glanced at her.

Rachel Weisz shook her head and said slowly: "We have known each other for many years, I know her very well, she is a person...... The heart is very high, and it is also very realistic. When she married an old man, she saw the benefits that the Douglas family's connections could bring her. I don't believe she's really in love with an old man two wheels older than her. ”

"Benefits?" Donn's eyes narrowed slightly, "Hehe, my connections are not as good as the Douglas family? How many years has she been in Hollywood and has won awards? My "Chicago" is a real award-winning film!"

"Rush for the awards?" Rachel Weisz's eyes lit up, "Oscar?"

"Of course!"

Rachel Weisz took a deep breath, of course she had deep expectations for the Oscars, but when it came to her qualifications in Hollywood, she was still too shallow, and the Oscars were too early for her.

But it's not the same for Catherine Zeta-Jones, that's her biggest expectation at the moment!

"If I can get your assurance, I would like to ...... Catherine would not have refused. ”

Rachel Weisz turned her head and looked Donn in the eye.

Tang En sighed for a moment and calmed down, "If I really had an idea, I would have taken her down when I filmed "Poison Network"! After all, she is a married woman, and I have no intention of destroying other people's families. ”

Speaking of which, Michael Douglas doesn't have much contradiction with him, it's just that he is a little more guarded.

Although Catherine Zeta-Jones is beautiful, stunning, wild, and bewitching, Don is not going to offend the Douglas family for a woman who has nothing to do with it.
