Chapter 277: My stand-in will also defeat them (one more, ask for a monthly pass!) )
Jeffrey Rush is also a representative of the Hollywood Aussie Gang, he is a native of Queensland, Australia, and the famous tourist destinations of Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef make up the beauty of Queensland. He likes to talk about his hometown and has introduced a lot to Chen Tiandu. Chen Tiandu said that he had also been to Australia when he was on vacation, and Rush invited him to be a guest in Queensland in the future.
Rush, who was born in drama, always has a hint of exaggeration in his performances and has a strong sense of expression.
For example, if he makes a gentleman's bow, others will be graceful and slow, and he always deliberately increases his strength unconsciously, throws his arm back hard, and then elegantly bows to his chest, and the transition between fast and slow always has the shadow of a stage play. But it's not that this kind of performance is bad, but it looks pleasing to the eye, otherwise he wouldn't have won the Oscar. And it is perfect to play Barbossa in "Pirates of the Caribbean".
This kind of pure audition is very relaxed, with nothing to do with conspiracy and strife, only the expression of many young actors who are desperate for their dreams. This kind of competition is pure, and sometimes seeing their disappointed eyes, even Chen Tian almost relented.
But he is responsible for the movie, the company, and himself, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is very important to him, the outside world is waiting to see his jokes, he can't mess up, messing up will not only affect his future, but also make the hundreds of employees of Matrix Films, who have finally risen, face the crisis of unemployment.
The supporting roles were determined one by one, and in the end, only two heavyweight actors and actresses remained. This is the character that runs through the trilogy. The important process is self-evident; But in all movies, no matter how long the hero and heroine appear, it directly affects whether the movie can be successful. This is especially true of Pirates of the Caribbean. In this movie, "idols and powerful factions" coexist, and the male and female protagonists have strict requirements in appearance, but Chen Tiandu does not want to lag behind in acting.
looked at the actor information with some confusion, the popular British actor Jude Law, the original actor the upcoming "Elf Prince" Orlando Bloom, the future "Brokeback Mountain" handsome guy Jake Gyllenhaal, the future "Captain America" Chris Evans, and "Wolverine" Hugh Jackman. These are all fledglings, as well as Heath Ledger, the "white hat cowboy" from Australia like Rush.
Heath Ledger, born on April 4, 1979, is now only 22 years old. As the Australian media said, the young Heath is like the bright Australian sunshine that brightens Hollywood, and now his smile in the photo is like a sunny handsome guy, full of charm.
Chen Tiandu happened to have seen Li Case's future masterpiece "Brokeback Mountain". On one of them though young. But Jake Gyllenshire's mature and steady performance is memorable, especially his eyes, which are deep and charming, and always seem to have a faint smile.
"Hehe~~" He suddenly laughed, making Niu Yingying, the assistant on the opposite desk, look at him strangely.
"Boss, what's wrong, what's so funny?"
Chen Tiandu shook his head, "It's nothing." Just saw the resumes of acquaintances. ”
This is actually Robert Downey Jr.'s interview material, don't call him. What does it mean to quietly put his resume into the matrix, but Wiltner is not a good fit for him. Just as he was about to pass, his fingers paused, and he instructed Niu Yingying: "Yingying, you call Robert Downey Jr. and ask him if he has quit drugs." ”
"Oh..."Niu Yingying agreed neatly, picked up the phone and raised her head in a daze, and said suspiciously: "Boss, I asked him directly if he had quit drugs, is it too rude, what if he scolds me?" ”
"If you are told to beat you, you will fight, why are there so many problems."
There is never a shortage of handsome guys and beauties in Hollywood, and there are even more actresses competing for the role of Elizabeth Swan, Keira Knightley, Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba, Winona Ryder, ...... Hehe, is the Star Wars Queen also coming for an interview, isn't she going to school now, do I know it?
This is exactly Natalie Portman's profile, and it seems that "Star Wars 2: Attack of the Clones" is still being filmed.
"Yingying ......"
Niu Yingying raised her head and looked at him.
Chen Tiandu hesitated for a while, "Forget it, I'll call myself." He picked up the phone and dialed Natalie's private number, "Hello, this is Natalie Portman, who are you?" ”
“what?” Chen Tiandu was disappointed for a while, "It's really disappointing that you didn't save my phone." ”
"Uh-huh, am I familiar with you?" Natalie was puzzled, and looked at the number again, a stranger called, and the number seemed to be somewhat familiar, "How do you know my phone number, is it a mistake?" ”
Chen Tiandu was helpless and said, "Okay, I'm Christmas Chen, I'm glad you can answer the phone Padmae Amidala." Excuse me, are you answering the phone on that planet now, it is not easy for earthlings to get through the phone. ”
The other side was silent for a moment, and then let out a long, "oh~~" exclamation, and said with a smile: "Hehe, hello, I have to remind you that it is rude to call me by her name when you call me Amy Dara, you should call me Her Royal Highness Queen Amy Dara, subject!" ”
"Ha~" Chen Tiandu laughed, and it was brilliant when he gave a little sunshine, "Okay, Her Royal Highness Queen Amy Darrah, I called to ask you, have you ever submitted a resume for the role of Elizabeth Swan?" That's my new movie heroine. ”
Natalie said cheerfully, "Yes, I think you should be short of actors right now, so give it a try." ”
"Do you think I will be short of actors......" Chen Tiandu immediately thought of the fact that the conflict with CAA had spread, shook his head and said: "So, you came to help me on purpose, not for this role, right?" ”
Natalie, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa at the moment, curled up like a cat with her legs curled up like a cat, raised her eyebrows when she heard the words and said, "Do you think so, does that mean that I failed the interview before I did?" Chen Tiandu smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your righteous support, I want to ask if you can dance?" ”
"What, is this a requirement for the new play, or do you want to ask me to dance?" Natalie said proudly, "No matter which one it is, I will tell you very solemnly, don't doubt any girl's dancing ability, I have been learning to dance since I was 4 years old, and I am very good at dancing...... Although I haven't skipped it in years. ”
"Are you sure you're not bragging?" Chen Tiandu choked and said, "I guess you must be leaning on the sofa now, still holding snacks in your hands, maybe there are a few very boring books in front of you." Wow, that's the perfect state for bragging. ”
Natalie's hand holding the snack suddenly stiffened, and she sat up slightly straight: "You don't believe me, it's really infuriating." Okay, did I audition for a round, I'll just jump to you during the interview......"
"Can you dance ballet?" Chen Tiandu suddenly asked.
Natalie's rambling words were interrupted, and she was suddenly suffocated, and after a moment of silence, she exhaled two long breaths, she wanted to refute it, but ...... But ballet happened to be her weakness, her dead end. Because she practiced ballet when she was a child, it was too uncomfortable to point her toes, and although she practiced later, it was not very good, "Huhu, you are a person...... It's really uncomfortable, and ballet happens to be my weakness. ”
Chen Tiandu laughed and said, "Then learn ballet, and I will have the opportunity to cooperate with you again in the future." ”
"Wait, what does this mean, I'm knocked out... Eliminated before a round? "Natalie can't believe who she is, acting genius Natalie was eliminated like this?!
Chen Tiandu explained: "You don't need to dance in this play, but the role of Elizabeth Swan is not for you. Ballet is about another movie, if you are interested in dancing movies, we will contact you after practicing ballet. ”
Natalie pursed her lips, suddenly sullen, and said, "Oh hell, I'm really eliminated." Can I know who my competitors are? ”
Chen Tiandu flipped through and said, "There are many, Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba...... They are all big beauties, and your stand-in is also the strongest contender. ”
"My stand-in?" Natalie's mind raced, "You mean Amy Darla's stand-in Sabe." Well, I'm eliminated, but hopefully my stand-in will beat the others. That's it, bye-bye. Oh wait, I almost forgot, I'm going to perform a Chekhov play "The Seagull" at the Lacott Theatre in Central Park, in which I play the role of Nina, and Meryl Streep, Kevin Klein, Philip Seymour Hoffman, etc., would you like to come and watch it? ”
Chen Tiandu frowned, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don't have time to go." "It's okay, that's it, really bye-bye."
Natalie was a little depressed after hanging up the phone, "This guy also said that he is a Star Wars fan, and he dares to eliminate the queen, it's really annoying." After a long pause, he remembered ballet, "Where are my ballet shoes, I have to find them." She jumped up, but with too much force, she hit the coffee table right on, making a piercing sound that made her jump straight to her feet in pain.
"Natalie, what are you doing, don't make noise."
"Hey, it hurts...... Got it, Mom. Where's my ballet shoes? ”
……
Chen Tiandu just hung up the phone, Niu Yingying also hung up the phone, and then looked at Chen Tiandu and said suspiciously: "Boss, Mr. Donnie is very strange, after I asked according to what you said, he talked nonsense, and finally sighed and admitted that he didn't quit." Then apologize to you. ”
Chen Tiandu pinched his chin and pondered: "It seems that his recent life has not been easy, otherwise he wouldn't have come over without face." You call later, ask him if he is short of money, and then lend him a sum of money. Remember to make an IOU, and know the details of all the expenses he has made after taking the money, and if he doesn't want it, forget it. ”
"Okay. Are there any other actors to notify? ”
"Well, let these actors come to audition, and I'll pick them one by one." Chen Tiandu transferred a bunch of actor information. (To be continued......)
