When considering the candidate for Captain Jack, Michael Keaton, Christopher Walken, and Jim Carrey have all entered Jerry's head, but Will Turner has basically not been carefully considered by Jerry, and now that I think about it, it seems that from the beginning, Jerry subconsciously wanted Daniel to play Will Turner.

According to the character, Will is tall and handsome, superb swordsmanship, and has emotional scenes with Elizabeth, from many aspects, Daniel is the most suitable candidate.

Now throughout Hollywood, there is no better fit for a role like Will than Daniel.

Commonly known as "male vase".

Of course, this is not to say that Daniel's acting skills are not up to par, no one can say that he is the double winner of the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar, plus Daniel, who is blessed by a blockbuster outpost award, is a person who can't act, but relatively speaking, he has super high popularity, especially among the teenagers with the largest consumption impulse, there is no opponent, in addition, Daniel's own face and figure are too outstanding, Leonardo finished filming "Titanic", and he was troubled because of his little white face, Recently, the direction of reading the script has been going in the direction of neuropathy and rough uncle.

Popularity and appearance, if used in the vase position, are simply the candidates that any film studio would want to see.

That's Jerry's consideration as a producer.

And Gore Verbinski simply thinks that Daniel is not very suitable for the role of Captain Jack, but this is difficult for him to say, he was quick to talk at the beginning, which brought Daniel a little trouble, plus the friendship between the two, if he blocks Daniel with an old-fashioned attitude, it will break the rules of Hollywood - of course, you can do this, you can not sell favors, but first of all, you have to not accept others to sell favors, this is called Lone Gao. But just eating and not pulling is not something that should be done.

But Gore spoke up anyway.

It's not hard to see why, the film means a lot to Gore.

Investment, technical direction, and the tentative significance of the film, if Gore can win this film, it is not impossible to gain a foothold in Hollywood, and even achieve a generation of great directors.

Under this premise, even if Gore is not very good at playing tricks, he knows how to choose.

After all, this protagonist is really too heavy.

And Daniel's roles that have always been involved, both online and non-online, are too far behind the Captain Jack he hoped. Billy Bob doesn't say that Commodius, Emmett, Legolas, Jason Bourne, and the last few new plays really don't have the kind of temperament he wants.

In fact, he was not very satisfied with the several candidates proposed by Jerry.

There is only one person with whom he is satisfied.

Johnny Depp!

Beginning with "Edward Scissorhands", Johnny's acting style is most closely related to the mystery, mystery, absurdity, and humor he hoped.

Will Turner is completely different, firstly, the role is not important, Daniel, who is an Oscar winner, has no pressure to play, and secondly, like Jerry, Will's role really seems to be tailor-made for Daniel. He could imagine how pleasing it must have been when he danced and fell in love with a sword and sword in the face of Commodius's temperament, disguised as a medieval blacksmith.

Now it seems that as long as Daniel agrees to play Will Turner, and then Gore convinces Jerry to bring in Johnny Depp and find a female vase, the result will be the best configuration.

But here's the problem.

Is it possible to ask Daniel to play Will?

The biggest difficulty is that Daniel wants to participate in this movie so seriously, it is impossible to watch Will come, the film makes money is a good thing, but it is a good thing for investors, producers, distributors, and even directors and theaters, and it will not have anything to do with a supporting role that is not very heavy. Unless Will can be like Legolas in "The Lord of the Rings" - I don't know how many people want to play Legolas himself. But is it possible? No way! Then it was too hard for Daniel to accept the role from the perspective of the producer and director rather than his own.

The second point is that even if Daniel is willing to accept it, at Daniel's price, he will play such an undesirable role, and he can't beat 12 million, and as for the sharing, he also needs to consider the possibility of it, of course, in front of a behemoth like Disney, Daniel's request may not be met.

But even the fixed salary of 12 million is far more than the budget they give to the actor who plays Will.

The budget is capped at only three million!

The heroine is a little more flexible, depending on the coffee position, but it won't be more than three million - they won't hire Cameron Diaz or Drew Barrymore-caliber actors.

Even Captain Jack, the upper limit of his salary is only 10 million. And if they give a sharing contract, the basic salary will be reduced again, according to Disney's idea, Captain Jack definitely needs to hire a A coffee, so they prepared a sharing contract, which is also the way they tend to choose, to be able to share some risks, is what they want, this is not a project destined to make money after all, and it is always good to be able to pull a few more into the water. And the actors of Will and Elizabeth, according to the design, are not eligible for a share.

Of course, if Daniel really wanted to, it wouldn't be nothing to talk about. With Daniel's popularity and appeal today, he is already an actor who is qualified to talk about sharing.

The last possibility, of course, is to put Daniel aside, if it is expensive and unsuitable, why do you have to use it.

But it's not that simple.

Robert Iger, on the other hand, is the new Disney CEO who has some connections to Daniel and is quite convinced of Daniel's appeal.

Even if he is looking for a little psychological comfort, the two works "Legally Blonde" and "The Lord of the Rings" can stabilize his mind.

As the most powerful person at the helm of Disney, Robert's opinion is very important - this is based on Robert's image perception of Captain Jack, perhaps because he is used to making animated movies, Robert is not very interested in the set that Gore admires, although as the CEO of Disney, it is inappropriate to directly intervene, but "Pirates of the Caribbean" is unusual after all.

There was a problem, and Gore couldn't convince Robert to let go.

And Robert is on the one hand, and Jerry Bruckheimer on the other.

He had already dropped his words a year ago, and when they were still talking about "Black Hawk Down", Daniel sold him a big face, and instead of being invited by Ridley Scott to join the competition, he gave up the role to Jerry's favored Josh. Later, he said that he had a book about pirates in his hand, and he hoped to invite Daniel, who agreed without even reading the script.

And now, Daniel has a clear attitude, and Jerry says to him: No, now I don't want you to act.

Even a gold-medal guy like Jerry would have to wait to be ridiculed for doing such a thing, and at the same time have to endure the preparation of a complete face-out with Daniel - he is not afraid, but why should he? Why turn your face with a promising superstar? This is a circle of harmony and wealth, even if the flesh and blood torn behind it are blurred, you are still good and I am good in front of people. Not to mention, today, Daniel and Jerry still have a real friendship.

Daniel used the network of people he has woven over the past year or so to wrap up the three decision-makers, just for the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", which can be described as well-intentioned. But in order to secure his position in the next five to ten years, Daniel had to do so.

……

News of the Pirates of the Caribbean trio's deliberations soon reached Daniel's ears.

The messenger came from someone who no one could have imagined.

Robert Iger!

Michael Eisner is very tough, so the board of directors put the milder Robert in the position of CEO, but what they don't understand is that whether a person is tough or not, in addition to personality is also related to position, in the past, Robert Iger had to be mild under Michael's pressure, but now it is different, he is already the supreme commander in charge of this aircraft carrier. For a five-year term, it is impossible for the board of directors to remove him unless there is a serious mistake, which has a very heavy impact on the stock price. So Robert no longer needs to hide his true character.

He was equally autocratic.

He thinks Daniel is a good fit for Captain Jack, why not? Jack is a positive character, a likable character, why not find an A-list superstar with excellent acting skills, extremely handsome, high popularity, and amazing appeal to play? How is it not suitable?

This is Robert's inner thoughts.

As for the appearance described by Gore, it seems to him that it is really a bit grandstanding, although under Jerry's coordination, he tolerates it, after all, he is not a professional acquaintance, and Gore is the director. But when Daniel stood in front of him, Robert's little forbearance seemed unnecessary.

With such a suitable person as Daniel to support Robert's existing imagination of the protagonist of the story, why does it have to be so thrilling? Cast the protagonist into a non-mainstream character.

During the discussion, Robert also saw that Daniel had a friendship with Jerry and Gore, otherwise with Jerry's toughness, it would be impossible not to support the director he chose, not to mention, he himself would not have chosen Daniel.

So Robert gave Daniel a call.

Not many people know about Daniel's private phone number, but Robert and Schneider certainly do.

"Gore." Daniel pronounced the name, he prepared a lot, and even befriended Gore when he was not developing, which was calculating Gore, but to be honest, except for what he thought in his heart, there was no difference between other aspects and real friendship, and when filming "Midnight Bell", Daniel also gave his thoughts without reservation. Usually, the two families come and go, and they all get along naturally.

But Gore really wanted to cut off his hope of starring.

As for Jerry, Daniel knows that Jerry will choose his own in the end, he is not only a set of films like "Pirates of the Caribbean", but also has more opportunities to cooperate in the future, not to mention, Daniel already has a production company under his hands, and has invested in two films, so the possibility of cooperation is even greater.

So, in fact, Daniel doesn't need to do much, just wait for Jerry to decide, and then Gore gives in.

Is it that easy?

Daniel assured that Johnny Depp had already received the news at this time, even if he would not have fancied such an opportunity before, but now that Daniel is involved, Daniel believes that Depp will change his mind.

How many years has Depp been in the circle, the connections are not comparable to Daniel's, and it is unknown whether Daniel's first hand can withstand Depp's attack.

……

As Daniel expected.

Jerry and Robert's attitudes made Gore worry that Daniel would eventually win the role, and it was a short process from hesitation to determination, and Gore was indeed determined to stop Daniel, so he handed the news to Johnny Depp and Tracy Jacobs.

The film wasn't necessarily indispensable to Daniel, but it was incomparably important to him, and that's what Gore thought.

Depp recently lived in New York, and after the events of last September, he returned to Los Angeles for Christmas, and then back to New York, of course, with work in between.

When he heard the news, Tracy and he were a little hesitant.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" is not so attractive to them, both in terms of appearance and salary. But the problem is that Daniel is fighting for the role aggressively.

Is there still a gap between Daniel and Johnny Depp today? The difference is only in age.

In terms of salary, he has even surpassed Depp - an A-list actor whose commercial value has not been proven. In terms of awards, Daniel already has an Oscar in hand, although it is only a supporting role, but Depp has nothing.

So why can't Depp watch the movie Daniel?

This is Tracy and Depp's simple thinking, although it is a little shameful, but it is practical and practical to think about the problem in this way.

Therefore, basically Depp did not hesitate for long and decided to go for this movie.
