Chapter 170: Misfortune
Seeing a beautiful young girl with long hair come in, Daniel looked at Jerry, who nodded knowingly.
Yes, this is the one.
But without him answering, Daniel could have guessed that Amanda entered the audition room with only eyes on Daniel, fiery, focused, fanatical - this should be Daniel's first meeting with his avid fans.
"Hello, Amanda. Seyfried? ”
"Daniel, oh hoo," Amanda's chest rose and fell before it was yet in place, "I'm not here to audition, Daniel, I'm just here to sue you, one day, I'll be your wife, oh, so many people can testify, I'll do it, you wait." ”
It seemed that the excited Amanda was about to pounce, and Melissa straightened her back vigilantly, ready to protect Daniel at any time.
But the little girl clearly had enough control to keep herself from doing something inappropriate – suggesting that today's planned meeting may have been the result of a strong determination.
Look at the door that closes again.
Daniel felt that his brain circuit was already a tangled ball of yarn, and he couldn't figure it out.
What kind of unfolding of God is this.
Who can sue me?
Maybe 10,000 alpacas rushing through the heart is indeed how it feels.
"Poof!"
Melissa's laughter finally broke the awkward deadlock. Starting with her, Ferguson, Rob, Jerry, and then Daniel himself, all started laughing.
Holding his head, Daniel rubbed his scalp vigorously, "Jerry, what the hell is going on, so, it's-, uh-huh, you know?" ”
"Are you sure you want to rebuke your future wife?" Chery squeezed her eyes, "If you insist, of course I can complain to the one who introduced her." ”
"My God! Okay, so let's move on? ”
The few remaining ladies outside were startled by Amanda who rushed out with excitement on her face, could she have been recognized so quickly? Or did she make Daniel stronger—that's something to be excited about, too!
Until Ferguson shouted "Kayla. Miss Knightley, it's your order. ”
This casual, youthful British girl hurriedly stood up and entrusted the bag to a friend who came together, there was no agent and assistant, she found a friend to try it out, so many people, each has its own way, but Kayla is indeed Jerry and others saw the list of British actors on the Screen Actors Guild, and then selected to participate in the audition - in fact, being able to participate in a formal audition of the level of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is also a qualification for an unknown actor.
"Miss Knightley, born in Teddington, England, to an actress father and a playwright mother. Wow, I've had a lot of acting experience. ”
"It's all good experiences, but it's not the main character."
Kayla standing in front of everyone is really eye-catching, when she first came in, she was still a modern girl, but now, there is no Annie. Hathaway's remarkable movements, her hands were just lightly folded in front of her, and her upper body was slightly straight, and a classical temperament belonging to Britain naturally emanated.
"Okay, let's get started, the first performance."
The same Elizabeth dressed.
Then there is the second segment, in which Daniel plays Will and Elizabeth is on the boat to unravel the mystery of the curse.
"I'll just say he's a good fit for Will." Rob muttered under his breath, clearly attracted to Daniel's Will.
Jerry was very close to him, and when he heard this, he just pouted, "Everyone thinks he is suitable, but now it seems that unless you find an Oscar-winning actress to play the role, who will put their eyes on Elizabeth?" ”
Yes, obviously, it's Kayla's audition time, but Rob's attention - a professional director audition, the attention is stolen by the supporting actors. Not to mention the ordinary, situational audience.
"You have a point."
However, Kayla's performance is still remarkable, so she has the time to perform for the third time.
This is Elizabeth asking Brigadier General Norrington to rescue Will. Turner's role.
None of the three audition scenes were difficult, to be precise, Elizabeth was nothing difficult throughout the scene, as long as she didn't get seasick or feel disgusted by the odd outfit.
"Daniel, how's it going?"
"Great, Miss Kayla, you're gifted and a good fit, we'll let you know if there's good news, thank you for coming."
Kayla thanked everyone with some excitement before withdrawing.
"What, you changed your mind?"
Daniel shook his head, "No, I'm just giving her a fair evaluation, but the results aren't always fair. Jerry, you know this better than I do. ”
Jerry spread his hands helplessly, "That's it, this is the Hollywood of the." Ferguson, please Miss Scarlett, the name always reminds me of the vain and hapless girl in Gone with the Wind. ”
Margaret's masterpiece is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Miss Scarlett's life of death is certainly well known.
"I hope she's not so unlucky." Ferguson laughed and went out to call people.
Daniel heard him shouting, "Miss Scarlett, it's your turn." Miss Scarlett? Scarlett. Miss Johnson? ”
"What happened?"
"The people were gone, and they said that Scarlett had just rushed out, and then her agent had followed."
"What?"
Everyone in the audition room was dumbfounded, and in an embarrassing moment, Daniel's cell phone rang.
"Mrs. Sloane, what's wrong with Scarlett?"
"I'm really sorry, Daniel, Scarlett might not be able to audition, she-, I'm sorry."
"Can you tell me why?"
"I didn't catch up with her, she took a taxi and left, but I guess she must have heard the others talk about her relationship with Cussa, and of course you."
Daniel on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, "Okay, it's okay, you can comfort her, she's still a little girl." ”
Facing the few people who looked at him, Daniel shook his phone, "The little girl couldn't bear the rumors of the role she was supposed to play and gave up the audition. ”
Jerry and Rob looked at each other, they hadn't experienced this kind of thing for a long time, and the men and women of Hollywood could pay for a good role in addition to hair, body, skin color, rude behavior, and even a night of fun and different amounts of money. However, giving up for the sake of some sour messages is indeed a long time gone.
"So-, now-"
"Kayla. Knightley. ”
Daniel no longer hesitated, "She's very suitable, I don't think there's anything more suitable than her, the next few people, all lack something." Rob, I might be a little sorry to say that, but Renee doesn't fit in either. ”
"Don't say that, I think so too, it's just a human favor."
"In that case, then we have come to an agreement. Ferguson, you can confirm the schedule with Miss Knightley later, and then ask her to come here tomorrow to discuss the contract. ”
Ferguson nodded in response.
To be honest, Scarlett "willfully" gave up the opportunity, which made Jerry and Robb breathe a sigh of relief, Daniel recommended the candidate, and they basically had no reason to object - the matter of casting, suitable or inappropriate, there are always various understandings, and even, if you say it is not suitable, it can be completely shaped by the director and the leadership of the same group of actors, so that she can become suitable. So, now you don't have to vote for favorites, but you can determine the candidates according to the table, which is always a good thing, and that's the case for movies.
The next audition was a bit of a cutscene.
Jennifer. Ghana dimples are too big while Renee. Zweig, on the other hand, pushed too hard, and apparently hadn't gotten out of the kind of "Chicago" kind of musical.
"Now we can really nail on the right guy."
Jerry in Kayla. Knightley's name is circled.
"Orlando. Bloom, Kayla. Knightley, Jeffrey. Rush, and Daniel. Sandler. Daniel sat in the car and remembered the starring team that was basically in place, except that he himself replaced Johnny. Depp, the other main characters are actually exactly the same, and nothing has changed. Orlando, who did not have the elven prince by his side, was still recognized by Jerry's eye, and Kayla was originally cut off by Scarlett. Knightley, who actually met Scarlett's stupid trick. As for Jeffrey, it was a long time ago.
"In this world, is there really that kind of power that dominates Yiqiē?"
Melissa saw Daniel's stern face, she didn't know what she was thinking, and thought he was angry at Scarlett's reckless behavior.
To be honest, anyone will be angry, you paid a favor, arranged a qiē, and in the end the beneficiary dropped the chain.
But Melissa can also understand Scarlett, not everyone can accept being arranged in their own lives, not to mention that they have to withstand bursts of gossip, if Scarlett is selected, Melissa can imagine that those stars who are not selected will definitely say some nonsense to the newspaper.
"Daniel, it's her choice, there's no need for you to be angry."
"Huh? What the? ”
"I said that Scarlett's decision to give up the role was her own and that there was nothing to be angry about."
"Angry? Oh no, I'm thinking about something else. Of course, she has the right to decide this qiē, although it was a little sudden, and I was a little caught off guard, but I was not angry. ”
There's no need for Daniel to lie, and he does have too much to think about.
"Greek Wedding has been re-edited, right?"
"Yes, David asked when you were going to check it out."
"Tonight, I don't have time, I have to hold a theatrical preview in two days, and see how many screens Los Angeles can give."
"Greek Wedding" was originally scheduled to be screened in the Los Angeles area on August 3, and then screened on a small scale in New York, with the publicity department cooperating with the action, if a qiē shun lì, the film will continue to arouse everyone's interest, and in late September or early October, a large-scale nationwide release will become possible.
