This is the abandoned factory that the crew of "50 First Loves" once rented, of course, it has now been bought by Xiansen, and this warehouse is a very good place for making movies.

In fact, a few days ago, Xiansen and Cook reached an agreement, the content of the agreement is related to the filming of the movie "Shutter Island", the agreement indicates that the movie "Shutter Island" will be jointly filmed by Columbia Pictures and Xiansen, and the two sides will each invest 15 million and enjoy 50% ownership of the film. All the filming of the film was taken care of by Xiansen, while Columbia was responsible for the promotion and post-production of the film.

For this agreement, Xiansen and Cook are very satisfied, as far as Xiansen is concerned, first of all, the shooting of the film is fully responsible for himself, and there is no need to worry about the intervention of Columbia, secondly, the risk is reduced, the investment in the film has also been increased, and the post-publicity and production do not have to be too bothered; And for Columbia Pictures, fifteen million is not a very high investment, you must know that Xiansen's first film "50 First Loves" brought Colombia several times the profit of this fifteen million, not to mention that Columbia Pictures is also very optimistic about the popularity and potential of this new director, you must know that they are not fools, even if Xiansen's second film suffers Waterloo, with Xiansen's own controversial surname, it should not be difficult for the box office to recover the cost of the movie.

So after reading Xiansen's new script, although Cook was still confused, he still contacted the senior management and signed the contract with Xiansen as soon as possible.

After the contract is signed, Xiansen needs to start choosing actors and roles, in fact, he has done a job pitch in the Washington Post long ago, and today is the audition date he has set.

The actors are divided into main actors and actors, and it is obviously difficult to achieve each role by themselves, so Xiansen handed over the choice of the actor to Brent, and this photographer is responsible for everything.

The most crucial part is the audition for the main actors, and this audition attracts a lot of people, including some second-rate and third-rate stars in Hollywood, and of course, some young men and women with star dreams.

"First, come in."

There is a modest office in the small factory, which is where Xiansen prepares for the audition.

After hearing Xiansen's voice, a brown-haired man pushed open the door and walked in.

"Hello Mister, I love your movie, so I want to be a character in your movie, you don't know, after watching "50 First Loves", I completely worshiped you, your imagination, your narrative structure, it's just perfect"

As soon as the man entered the door, he kept talking, and Xiansen felt that if he was allowed to continue, he would not have to try others today. Although what he said sounded quite true, Xiansen still opened his mouth to interrupt: "First of all, please call me the director, and secondly, your name." ”

"Mark Ruffalo"

"Age?"

"34 years old"

"Occupation?"

"Actor."

After a brief exchange, Xiansen looked at Mark Ruffalo a few times, and in his opinion, the image of this brown-haired man is actually quite suitable for playing the male number two Chuck, that is, the protagonist's partner. Thinking of this, Xiansen decided to test the acting skills of the man in front of him.

"You can show me two such clips, the first is horror, the horror of the unknown."

As soon as Xiansen's words were finished, I saw Mark Ruffalo exhale deeply after brewing his feelings, and then an inexplicable emotion suddenly erupted on his face, his pupils were dilated, it seemed to be fear, and he seemed to be puzzled and curious, and the two emotions were well integrated on the face of the brown-haired man.

“verygood！”

Seeing this performance, Xiansen couldn't help but applaud, many times the fear of the unknown is not only reflected in the fear, but also the character's confusion and a little bit of curiosity. For this first test, Mark Ruffalo's performance can be said to be very on point.

"You give me another show of panic."

Without giving Mark Ruffalo much time to prepare, Xiansen went on to speak of the second test.

Although the meaning of panic and panic is similar, there is a world of difference between the two, one is a sudden shock, which is quickly presented on the surface, and the other is more through the heart to drive the surface emotions.

Mark Ruffalo bit his lip, his breathing became a little heavier, and one leg gradually trembled, and after looking cautiously to the left and right, he let out a long sigh and seemed to calm his mood.

"Very good, Mark, for the last test, I'll give you a look at the script and find out the best fit for you."

After saying that, Xiansen handed over the mutilated movie script and asked Mark Ruffalo to study it, and then continued to choose the later characters.

"Next!"

Until the thirteenth actor, Xiansen couldn't find a suitable one, among which he also met such a guy, after he rejected him, the actor began to accuse Xiansen of not understanding movies and acting, and then said a lot of theories. In the end, this product was directly called by Xiansen and asked the security guard to leave the set, and there are really people everywhere to show their IQ.

"Director, I've made my choice."

Just as Xiansen was about to let the next person come in for an audition, Mark Ruffalo, who had been squatting in the corner of the office, stood up, walked up to Xiansen, and gave his answer.

"I wanted to play Chuck, and I felt like I could handle the role."

There are many actors in this world who have good acting skills but don't know what role they are suitable for, obviously the Mark Ruffalo in front of him is not, this is a very smart actor, and he is also very clear about his positioning.

"Okay, let's come and sign the contract if it's confirmed, $10,000 per scene, what do you think of the salary?"

There will probably be more than 40 scenes in this movie, and Mark Ruffalo is estimated to get more than 400,000 US dollars, which is already a very good salary, at least in his opinion, it is already a good thing to be able to film under Xiansen and get such a high salary.

"Thank you, director, you don't know, since I watched your "50 First Loves", I am so admired, this movie can almost be said to be rewritten"

Well, this guy is starting talking non-stop again.
