Chapter 425: The True Purpose of Filming

Ask for commuter passes and recommended tickets!

With Murphy's style of acting, the project he directed will definitely give priority to his own people, so he immediately informed the rest of the Stanton party that he has enough power in his hands, and the Stanton party has also proved his popularity with success after success, as long as James Franco and others have the right schedule, they can appear in this film and get paid a lot of money.

This summoning was not mandatory, and Murphy certainly wouldn't let them miss out if there were other, better opportunities in their hands.

The first is that Robert Downey Jr. has an inappropriate schedule, he just finished filming "Iron Man" not long ago, and took over Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes" based on Lionel Wigram's comic book of the same name, and will play the famous Sherlock Holmes.

Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill also didn't have time, and the super-explosion of "The Hangover" made the two who led the project instantly hot, and they planned another comedy film and received investment from David Ellison's Sky Movie Fund.

The only one with a schedule is James Franco, with whom Murphy has communicated and is almost certain that James Franco will play Lieutenant Aldo, the leader of the bastard squad in the film.

Among the remaining important roles, Murphy needed a young actress who did not have any Jewish features, either Jewish or non-Jewish; A strong, bull-like Jewish strong actor, he is interested in Dwayne Johnson, who has worked with him before, but this one's appearance seems to be a bit problematic; A typical Germanic blonde beauty, it seems that the best candidates for this are Uma Thurman, who is taking care of his confidant and friend Quentin the ruffian, and Diane Kruger, who has already sent out an invitation to audition for Bill Rothes......

These can all be addressed through auditions.

For the other two important roles, Murphy couldn't think of a more suitable person for the time being, and people sent out audition invitations to Michael Fassbender and Christopher Waltz.

In the last two years, Michael Fassbender has gradually become famous in Hollywood, and Murphy has also seen his detailed profile in the CAA, and this type of actor can impress him, on the one hand, because of his preconceived ideas, and on the other hand, thanks to his background.

Michael Fassbender was born in Germany, is a descendant of Germans and Irishmen, and although now based in London, speaks fluent German. In fact, German is his first language and English is his second language, and a German with a British accent is a perfect match for this role.

As for Christopher Waltz, almost everyone who saw Christopher Waltz for the first time in Inglourious Basterds asked, "Who was that Nazi officer?" ”

It is no exaggeration to say that before the movie, fans basically didn't know anything about him, and even in Austria or Germany, he was not a famous first-line star.

Almost as soon as the invitation to audition was sent, Murphy received a reply, and both Michael Fassbender and Christopher Waltz agreed to audition and would immediately come to Los Angeles to prepare for the audition role, even if they hadn't seen any scripts for the role.

This is the appeal of A-list directors, and for those actors who dream of becoming famous, this invitation is tantamount to a godsend.

Before Christmas, the crew of "Inglourious Basterds" was officially established in Los Angeles, and all kinds of work in the crew are old men who have followed Murphy for many years, a close-knit team, and the most basic conditions for making a good movie.

With the transfer of the first $30 million in funds from Twentieth Century Fox and Weinstein Pictures to a third-party guarantee account, preparations for Inglourious Basterds have officially begun.

The first choice was the choice of location, and the two assistant directors went to Paris with Harvey Weinstein to investigate the possibility of filming in Paris.

The second is film, which is different from the previous "Man of Steel", as Murphy said, no matter what kind of medium, in his hands it is always for the film, and this time Murphy chose to use film entirely to shoot.

The reason is very simple, the film will be released before the next awards season, and he is not only thinking about the box office, but also about hitting the Oscars, in the eyes of those old-fashioned Oscar judges, film will always be the best medium for films, and the use of digital shooting technology will naturally lower the Oscar competition by at least one notch.

Then there are the actors, the crew is the first to determine James Franco who plays Lieutenant Aldo, and there is also a burlesque actor who plays Hitler.

Originally, Jonah Hill was very interested in the role of Hitler, but unfortunately his schedule was not suitable, and his body type was also very unsuitable.

Since there will be no war scenes in the film, and the only action scenes are limited to a very small range, compared to "Man of Steel", the preliminary preparations this time are relatively simple, especially the historical details that this kind of film involving history needs to be studied in detail, not to mention that it can be completely ignored, and there is no need to make great efforts to investigate.

In Murphy's words, this is not history that once happened, but a universe exclusive to jerks.

In fact, Quentin Tarantino's works can completely form a universe of their own, which is always full of gore and violence anyway, and all the characters are a bunch of complete bastards.

"What was Murphy's biggest purpose in taking over the film?"

Inside a restaurant in Century City, Margot Robbie, who was tied in a golden ponytail, looked at Gal Gadot, who was sitting opposite, "You know that, right? ”

Gal Gadot shook his head, "I didn't ask Murphy. ”

"You, always." Margot Robbie took a sip of the water glass, shook her head and said, "Gail, it's not me saying you, you always do things mainly with Murphy, so you will lose yourself." ”

"I think it's good now." Gal Gadot smiled, "Very happy. ”

Margot Robbie shrugged her shoulders and didn't continue the conversation, turning back to the question she had just asked, "Murphy is your boyfriend, guess what he's for." ”

"Honey." After getting along for the past two years, the relationship between the two is very good, Gal Gadot completely regards Margot Robbie as his best friend, and he has no scruples when he speaks, "You must have your own ideas when you ask such a question, it's better for you to guess." ”

Margot Robbie was also unkind, saying, "For the friendship with Quentin Tarantino? ”

She then shook her head, "No, with Murphy's character, he's going to do this for you and those Stanton henchmen, but Quentin Tarantino hasn't gotten to that point. ”

Although he never mentioned it, Gal Gadot knew what kind of person Murphy was, and actually knew some of Murphy's thoughts about taking the film, and nodded lightly, agreeing with Margot Robbie's words.

"To make money?" Margot Robbie shook her head again, "I've read the script, it's not a typical mass film, even if it hits the box office, it can't be like "Man of Steel". ”

Gal Gadot also took a sip of water, "Maggie, you know more and more. ”

"Don't always think I'm a wild boy from the Australian countryside." Margot Robbie is now delicate and well-dressed, where is the Australian cowgirl back then?

At least not from the outside.

"You're a beautiful big girl now." Gal Gadot complimented, and Margot Robbie showed a bit of surprise, "You really think so?" ”

"Of course." Gal Gadot nodded slightly, "People who say you're not pretty must be blind." ”

She remembers very well that now Margot Robbie is seventeen years old, and she is gradually growing, tall and sexy, with a delicate and three-dimensional face, and a temperament exclusive to a young girl, she is definitely a top blonde beauty.

Not to mention a man, even if she is a woman, she feels excited when she sees it.

Margot Robbie deliberately put on a smug and proud face, causing Gal Gadot to laugh again unconsciously.

"I can't guess." Margot Robbie turned the subject back again, "You must know! ”

She looked at Gal Gadot, "Isn't it?" Tell me! ”

"I can guess some, but you don't have to take it too seriously." Girlfriends always exchange little secrets, and Gal Gadot is no exception, she said, "Murphy took this film, on the one hand, it was indeed because of his friendship with Quentin, Quentin gave him a lot of help back then, and Murphy couldn't have watched him be sued by Twentieth Century Fox for breach of contract; Murphy, on the other hand, was filmed for the judges of the academy......"

"The judges of the Academy." Margot Robbie has been in this circle for a while, and there is an older brother like David Robbie, plus his mind is smart enough, he immediately understood what Gal Gadot meant, and said anxiously, "I know! ”

"Ah......" Thinking of Gal Gadot's ethnicity, she was a little embarrassed, opened her mouth, and swallowed the next words back into her stomach.

Gal Gadot could guess what Margot Robbie was trying to say and smiled, "Maggie, it's okay. ”

"Then I'll be blunt."

Seeing Gal Gadot nodding, Margot Robbie spit out the words she swallowed back, she had read the script, and the words she said were also based on the plot, "Murphy can tell the Jewish bigwigs in Hollywood when he shoots this movie: Do you look cool when I make a movie for Jews to cut Nazi scalps?" Inadequate? Then a whole group of stupid Nazis let them look foreign, and then another stupid Hitler, shoot him a hundred times, a hundred times, and then set all the Nazi high-level officials on fire in the movie theater, and then machine gun sweep and blow up with explosives, isn't it enjoyable? Can you win the Oscar, can you give a few little golden figures? ”

"You......"

Hearing Margot Robbie say this kind of banter, Gal Gadot laughed, not only didn't care, but also seemed to be in a very good mood.

Margot Robbie laughed when she saw Gal Gadot, and then said in due time, "Gail, there is a Jewish girl in the script who doesn't look like a Jew......" (To be continued. )
