Cole had a ridiculous feeling in his heart: Lance knew everything. He knew www.biquge.info idea was ridiculous, and any sane person knew it was untrue, but Cole couldn't control it, he was thinking it at the moment, and Lance seemed to be able to control everything easily, which made him a little frightened.
There are more than 400,000 actors in Hollywood, not counting those extras, but less than 10,000 can really shout their names. Even if Cole is a senior senior agent, he can't know the names of every actor, to be precise, no one can. But Cole felt that Lance could, or rather, Lance could accurately select the most suitable actor from among the 400,000 people, an ability that was both terrifying and awe-inspiring.
Unconsciously, Colkai was accustomed to looking up at Lance in front of him, as if it was impossible for Lance to fail. Such a ridiculous, so weird, such a wonderful idea, but Cole knew that he was definitely not the only one in Hollywood.
"J.K. Simmons, the newspaper owner in 'Spider-Man,' with the photo provided by Peter Parker." Lance reminded that Cole's mind is still very vague, in a blockbuster movie like "Spider-Man", there are so many characters, how could he notice the supporting role of a newspaper owner - even if he did, Cole was a little surprised, why did Lance choose such an actor who didn't seem to have any reputation and no strength? "Don't you know? 'Juno', which we are in the pipeline, is also looking for JK to play the heroine's father. ”
On the one hand, it has joined forces with Marvel Studios to develop "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk", on the one hand, it is also looking for works suitable for distribution at major film festivals, and on the other hand, it is also starting to shoot another work, "Juno" - after "Queen", Chaos Pictures once again shoots its own independent works, which are still from the blacklist.
"Ahh Cole suddenly realized and nodded slightly.
"Robert Knepp, 'Prison Break' T-Bag." Lance made a concise and clear introduction, Cole immediately realized, compared to JK, Robert is much more famous, as the new drama ratings king of last year's TV series, "Prison Break" can be said to have gained countless attention, Robert's "tea bag" makes people hate itchy, and his popularity is rising.
Cole nodded slightly, and stopped talking, the words rolled on the tip of his tongue, but he still couldn't hold back, "But, why?" ”
With Lance's current name, it can be said that he is invincible, and there are not a thousand but eight hundred actors who are willing to play Browski, and Lance can completely select those top actors and create a top lineup. However, Lance chose JK and Robert? One is a supporting actor whose name he has barely heard of, and the other is a third-tier actor who is always active on the small screen of TV, which really puzzles Cole.
"Because they're suitable." Lance's answer seemed crisp and neat, which made Cole a little speechless, stunned, and then laughed dumbly, defeated, "In this regard, you are an expert." ”
Why hadn't Lance thought about it? Use big-name actors, preferably familiar actors with acting skills, such as Javier Bardem, Lance has even considered Heath Roger, but they are not necessarily the best choice for Browski, Heath should have just taken over the role of the Joker, jumping from "Batman" to "The Incredible Hulk", and it is estimated that Warner Bros. will not either. After all considerations, Lance targeted JK and Robert - reputation is not necessarily the most important, and his own strength and role fit are more practical.
JK and Robert both have their own strengths and weaknesses that need to be considered.
JK Simmons, the full name should be called Jonathan Kimble-Simmons (Jonathan-Kimble-Simmons), his name is Jonathan Kimble, but for convenience, people generally call him JK, he has always been famous, but in fact, he has been rolling in Hollywood for more than ten years, has been playing those inconspicuous supporting roles, and he can be seen in many works, in addition to "Spider-Man", "Cider House Rule", "Burn After Reading", "Jobs", "In the cloud" and so on. He, like Paul Giamati, is a golden supporting role with a solid acting foundation and an unprominent appearance but can play an important role in the work, but Paul seized the opportunity to win a place in Hollywood, but JK didn't, even if the third-tier actors are not counted, they can only be regarded as actors who transition between the fourth-tier and the dragon set, before he became famous, he starred in more than 140 movies, but his name is still a big question mark for most people, It's similar to Naomi Watts, except that Naomi met "Mulholland Drive" at the beginning of the 21st century, while JK didn't meet "Popping Drummer" until 2014.
In the work "Burst Drummer", JK has accumulated a lot of experience, and brought the madness and paranoia of the madness to life to the fullest, just a pair of eyes made people shudder, and finally made him sweep the entire awards season, leading the way, and won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor that year without any suspense.
JK is a well-rounded actor, he has played many comedy roles, and his warm and honest temperament can always give the character a special feeling, but when it comes to seriousness, his appearance has a cold and evil quality, and the lethality injected into the performance is really eye-catching. If he plays Browski, he can interpret that kind of paranoia, from the indifference and alienation at the beginning, as the story progresses, it becomes crazy little by little, and the paranoia throughout becomes this catalyst and driving force, and finally Browski is frantically injected with drugs and incarnated into hatred.
Undoubtedly, this Broskey is more humane and richer, but it also means that Lance needs to leave room for JK to play, and the filming process is bound to focus on distribution, which requires corresponding adjustments to the rhythm of the entire movie, the distribution of character scenes, and the scheduling of plot highs/tides, not too much, otherwise the focus will be shifted; It can't be too little, otherwise the character is pale, and the difficulty rises again when the original shooting task is already very heavy, which is a test for Lance, but "The Incredible Hulk" is still essentially a commercial movie, and Lance doesn't want to put so much energy into it, it is enough to shoot "The Day After Tomorrow" like he did when he first filmed "The Day After Tomorrow".
Robert is a theater major, he appeared on the big screen in the mid-eighties, and has been active in the film and television industry for nearly two decades, but he has not achieved much attention and achievement, and Robert is often difficult to find more suitable roles due to the constraints of appearance. This situation lasted until 2005, when the work "Prison Break" was born, and Robert's nearly twenty-year career as an actor finally seized the opportunity and reached the peak of his career with the role nicknamed "Tea Bag".
On the one hand, the shackles of the American film and television industry are insurmountable, and it is even more difficult for TV actors to succeed on the big screen than models, until the present in 2006, the film industry has some contempt for TV series, thinking that only the degenerate will return to the small screen, referring to the development curve of Jennifer Aniston on the big screen after leaving "Friends", it can be seen; On the other hand, Robert is a typical type of actor, his appearance is too thin, coupled with the strong influence of "prison break", his personal image is always imprisoned in a cruel and cunning cage, even on the big screen, when there is no change in the way he acts, he has not many choices.
Therefore, after "Prison Break", Robert is still more active on the small screen of TV, except for the small appearance of "The Hunger Games 3", the film works are really lackluster.
If Robert plays Browski, the character will be much more one-lined, and after his debut, he will be full of blood, and he will chase Bruce Banner all the way to the scene, and finally the injection will be a matter of course, without any hesitation and hesitation. In this way, the filming process will be much simpler, Robert will also play "in his true colors", and the focus of the script does not need to be too tilted, just advance according to the existing rhythm.
But the shortcomings are also very obvious: the character is too thin, and in the absence of Anton's bloodthirsty cold temperament like in "No Country for Old Men", Browsky's role in promoting the plot of "The Incredible Hulk" is basically not much, not so much a villain, but a madman, a thug, and a target, and the weight of the villain in the script must be tilted towards General Ross, so as to ensure the integrity and fullness of the story. What's more, such a Browski also lacks a little room for excavation, and Lance's core idea of the script will be a little weak.
Objectively speaking, JK and Robert have their own advantages and disadvantages, no matter who plays the role, it is not a problem, but the style is slightly different, and Lance's shooting method also needs to be adjusted accordingly. But what is certain is that no matter who plays it, they will not fall behind in front of Edward, Naomi, and William, and the four starring lineups are also complete enough.
So, Lance needs to meet with the two of them in person to audition, and then make a judgment and finally make a decision.
"I'll arrange it for you, what about the timing? Will it be okay for the next week? Cole didn't ask too much, the mixture of fear, awe, and reverence made him agree neatly, and after Lance nodded in the affirmative, Cole moved on to the next topic, "How did it go last night?" "I'm not talking about the party, of course, but the confrontation hidden behind the party," I heard, you and Barry talked alone for almost half an hour, and today there were rumors about our upcoming collaboration with Warner Bros., is that true? ”
Parties are always the occasion where the inside story spreads the fastest, and speculation is endless, "Is it only Warner?" Lance's rhetorical question stunned Cole, and then he couldn't help it. (To be continued.) )
