Chapter 570: Best Villain (Three More Requests for Subscription)
Lin Han picked up the mobile phone next to the bed, and when he found Xu Jiayan's phone, he dialed it, "Brother Xu, I just saw you on the audition for the actor in "The Matrix", do you really want to play this role?"
"Is that still fake?" Xu Jiayan was originally just an actor with an empty coffee spot and no box office, but after starring in two sci-fi movies related to Lin Han in a row, his acting career ushered in a real peak, and he was even more popular than he won the Cannes Best Actor before.

Since they are friends, Lin Han also said bluntly: "Actually, your acting skills are very suitable, but you are a little older, and the price is a little more expensive." ”
Xu Jiayan was playing golf, he took off his gloves, and said unconvinced: "It's okay for you to say that my salary is a little expensive, but you say that I can't bear it when I'm old." Now many young girls on the Internet call me a male god and want to give me a monkey. How did it get into your mouth, I'm old?"
"Fans, just listen to it. What I need now is a lad and you really don't fit. ”
"I knew that I should listen to my agent and occasionally apply a mask to maintain it, but now I can't play a young man. Xu Jiayan's words were a little emotional, "I think I can rescue it now, or let's see the audition effect?" As for the salary, you can just look at it and give it, but it's really not good, I can still take no penny, only take dividends." ”
At this time, Lin Han suddenly thought of something, he touched his chin with some whiskers, "Do you want to broaden the drama path?"
"What do you have in mind?"
"I think it's good for you to play the villain Agent Smith, he is Neo's long-time enemy, from the beginning to the end, and he is very malleable. ”
Xu Jiayan is interested, he does play positive roles, and now it seems that there is nothing impossible to open up the drama and shoot the villain, "You talk about it in detail, I'll think about it!"
Lin Han thought seriously in his head and said: "Agent Smith was originally an anti-virus program in the matrix, and every time he appeared, he borrowed the bodies of the rest of the people, and it was difficult to be killed. He was very powerful in the beginning, he could smash the concrete with one punch, he could dodge bullets, and he could defeat Morpheus with his own kung fu, and once used the Desert Eagle to kill the protagonist, but he was killed by Neo, who awakened as the savior! Because of this, Agent Smith changed from an anti-virus program to a virus, and has the ability to replicate infinitely, thus endangering the entire Matrix world. ”
"Smith was eliminated by Neo, but he killed the bird before he was eliminated by Neo, so this caused a logical error, and he and Neo became the corresponding poles. In the end, Neo chose to let Smith infect him, and in the process of copying, the matrix mastered Smith's code, so that the two of their colleagues could be deleted and the matrix was restored to balance. To put it simply, he is also an indispensable person in the movie, who needs both acting skills and fights, and there are many fight scenes. If it is portrayed, this may be a classic villain on the silver screen!"
As an excellent actor, Xu Jiayan's bones are full of adventure factors, and he doesn't care whether taking on the villain role will have an impact on his image, he began to seriously outline the image of Agent Smith.
He had read the novels of "The Matrix" before, and although the novels were not serialized, of course Agent Smith, who appeared at the beginning of them, knew about it.
Black suit with sunglasses, this image alone is enough to make the heroine Trinity frightened, and at the same time, she is the head of the agents in the matrix, so why is he different?
In fact, Xu Jiayan thinks that this outfit will look very handsome, and maybe he can create a villain that the audience loves and hates.
"I have a little question, why did Agent Smith become the villain, and what is his purpose?" This is actually Xu Jiayan preparing a character biography, which is his usual preparation before acting.
The content in the script is limited after all, and if you want the character to be fuller, then add relevant content yourself, which will help you play better.
Lin Han also knew what Xu Jiayan meant, and he replied: "Smith is different from the rest of the agents, he has his own mind, he longs for freedom, he doesn't want to be constrained by this virtual matrix, he wants to return to the real machine world. When he was an antivirus, he had only one purpose, and that was to kill Neo, eliminate Zion, and thus leave the Matrix. And when he mutates into a virus, the purpose becomes the same as Neo, completely destroying the matrix, removing all confinement, and thus returning to the real world. ”
It can be said that Smith's purpose is evil, his freedom is only his own freedom, he doesn't care about anyone else, everything can be abandoned.
He gradually changed from an ordinary program of the matrix to a virus with the ability to crash the matrix, and all this is actually the fun of the story.
Xu Jiayan said with a smile: "You win, when will you send me the script, and I will play this role." ”
"It's a win for us. A good villain and a good movie go hand in hand, you think about the script carefully, come to the scene tomorrow to accompany me as a judge, and see which characters are more compatible with you. Maybe we can come up with a classic villain in film history, and Agent Smith has that potential!"
Agent Smith, played by Hugo Weaving, is indeed quite famous in film history, and among the top 100 villains in film history selected by British "Empire" magazine, this character ranks ninth, higher than Anonymous in "Seven Deadly Sins", higher than the mastermind behind "Chainsaw", higher than the Terminator in "Terminator", but lower than Joker, Professor Hannibal and the head nurse of "One Flew Over the Asylum".
He is called the muse of evil by the Wachowski brothers, and he is extremely evil in the movie, which makes people talk about it and creates many classic characters.
Originally, Lin Han planned to find a powerful actor to play Agent Smith, but now that Xu Jiayan is the actor, he is of course the best choice!
Maybe they really have the possibility of filming a villain role that makes everyone's eyes shine, a role that allows actors to give full play to their acting skills, and an actor who can play various roles with ease, which is simply a perfect match.
Lin Han can't wait to see the effect of the filming, this kind of extremely suitable combination is hard to find, both actors and directors are reluctant to miss it!
Many actors are hindered by their own image, and filming has always been in their comfort zone, and there are few times when they subvert their image.
But many times, the villain is the one who really tests his acting skills, such as in "Batman: The Dark Knight", the Joker directly crushed the protagonist of Batman with his acting skills.
It is true that there are many positive roles, but if the villain role is played well, it will be very attractive. Maybe some viewers will forget the plot of the movie, but he will definitely feel that there is such a terrible villain, this is a great opportunity to leave a name in film history!
