Chapter 518: White
readx;??? readx; "Christian ......"
In the living room of the apartment, a well-dressed agent looks at his client, "It's time to make a decision." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Leaning back in a high-backed chair, Christian? Bell's right fingers tapped slowly on the table, and next to it were two scripts, two different types of scripts, one cut and one commercial.
"Charles? Rowan just called me. The agent added, "The crew can't wait for you indefinitely." β
Christian? Bell looked at the two scripts, still hesitant.
The first one is from a director who can barely be considered a second-tier, and he talks about magic, even if it's just a script, you can see an extremely strong personal style from it.
The second is one of the top directors from Hollywood and even the world, the new episode of Batman, a film with a very strong commercial flavor.
If it were a normal situation, he would definitely pick the first one, which is the type he likes very much.
But the problem is that the situation is not ordinary.
Duke? What does Rosenberg mean, Christian? Bell is well aware, and this book is also very personal, with a dark reality mixed with the text, which has never been done in previous superhero movies.
"I haven't figured it out yet." Christian? Bell said.
The preparation and shooting dates of the two films almost coincide, and it is impossible for him to take it at the same time, and to play Batman, he has to go through a long period of physical training with a large amount of exercise, where is the energy to take care of others.
He is very calm, but the agent is in a hurry, which agent doesn't want his subordinates to have a few A's or super A's, who wants to only be an agent for some second- and third-tier actors for the rest of his life.
"Chris!" He said with great seriousness, "The person who invited you was Duke? Rosenberg! β
"Ten years ago, you would have had a chance to change your fate!" The agent stared at Bell tightly, "You almost became the hero of "Titanic"!" Become Leonardo now? DiCaprio! That opportunity was missed, we have waited for so many years, and you can still only go around in the small production of the independent film circle, do you want to be in this chaotic circle forever? β
He said again. "If you're aiming for Daniel? Wear? Lewis, then I have nothing to say. β
Christian? Bale definitely doesn't want to be that kind of actor, and the agent knows this very well, otherwise he would have terminated his contract a long time ago.
But this script by the Nolan brothers ...... "Christian? Bell was still hesitating.
Brokers no longer go around in circles. said directly, "One is the niche cut film director Christopher? Nolan, one is the mainstream film director Duke? Rosenberg, even a fool, knows how to choose! β
He stood up, a slight look of disappointment on his face. "If you just want to be a little actor, Chris, I won't say anything more."
On the one hand, it continues to suffer in the independent circle, and on the other hand, it is likely to be unlimited fame and fortune, how to choose?
Hollywood is not without Daniel for example? Wear? Lewis is such an outlier, but very few, Christian? Although Bale has a somewhat special thinking, he has not left the category of Hollywood actors after all, and how many actors in this circle are really pursuing art?
This is a machine that makes dreams. It is also a factory of fame and fortune.
Christian? Bell slowly closed his eyes, and many names appeared in his mind, Keanu? Reeves, Nicholas? Cage, Will? Smith, Tom? Hanks, Tom? Cruise and so on, these people are all talking to Duke? Rosenberg's cooperation has taken a great step forward in life and career.
He was born as a child star, and Steven? Spielberg has worked with him, and he has tasted the taste of popularity, which is a feeling that makes people indulge and revive.
How many years has he not tasted it? Is he really willing to hone in the independent film industry? It's just that the mainstream business circle doesn't look down on an actor like him who has no market appeal at all!
"Tomorrow the Batman crew will officially determine the audition candidates......"
Hear from the agent, Christian? Bell finally made up his mind, though he hesitated, hesitated, hesitated. But in Christopher? Nolan and Duke? It's not that hard to choose between Rosenberg, isn't it?
"I'm going to Bruce? Wayne's audition. β
People who want to participate in Batman auditions, there are all over Hollywood, which is a society that worships successful people. Hollywood is a circle of admirers of the successful, and countless companies and actors would rather follow the bad projects of the successful ones than spend an extra half a minute on the projects of newcomers who seem to be creative.
Since Duke left Los Angeles to inspect the location, Charles? Rowan and Anna? Prinz temporarily became the head of the crew, and in just a few days, they became a god in the eyes of several agencies and countless agents. Hollywood knows that Duke doesn't care too much about small things, and is willing to give the power in his hands to the people below, some small roles and even important supporting roles, both of whom have the right to decide.
A soft knock on the door, Anna? Prinz called out to please come in, and a blonde girl at most twenty years old pushed the door and walked in.
She walked across from the desk and said hello expertly, "Hi Anna, I haven't seen you in a long time." β
Anna? Prinz quickly gave her up to the seat opposite, "Scarlett, how do you have time to come over." β
"I'm here to sign up for an audition." Scarlett? Johnson was also polite, sat down in his chair with a big grin, and pointed to the ceiling, "My agent has gone upstairs to find Charles?" Rowan too. β
"You're going to audition?" Anna? Prinz asked curiously.
"Heroine!" Scarlett said as a matter of course, "I think my conditions are suitable. β
Anna? Prinz glanced at her, as Duke's deputy, she vaguely knew something, as if the starting point of the cold war between her boss and his girlfriend was on her.
She didn't want to get involved in these things, and said directly, "Scarlett, you know, I don't have the right to decide this kind of role. β
"Hmm......" Scarlett nodded, "the decision is in Duke's hands, I'm here to say hello." β
She looked at her watch, "It's almost time, so I won't bother you, it's time for me to take my leave." β
"Goodbye, Scarlett."
"Goodbye, Anna."
Walking out of Anna's office, Scarlett didn't meet her agent, but sat in the lobby of the studio and waited for a while, and a few minutes later she got up and looked through the window, and then quickly left the Duke's studio.
Pulling open the door of the sky-blue sports car, Scarlett said, "You're late." β
"There is a traffic jam on the road." Sofia? Coppola started the car and drove onto the road to Beverly Hills, and when she left the busy section, she suddenly asked, "What do you want to do, Scarlett?" β
Looking at Sophia's frowning brow, Scarlett couldn't help but say, "Hey, Sophia, we're all in this together!" β
"Are you really going to make a vase in a Duke movie?" Sophia turned her head to look at her, spun the steering wheel, and the car stopped in front of a restaurant on the side of the road, "It's not a joke. β
"Am I kidding?" Scarlett unbuckled her seatbelt and looked at Sophia, "I've decided to give up the literary style and take the commercial route instead." β
Sofia? Coppola sighed, "Honey, is it worth it?" β
"Haven't you heard a word?" Scarlett said seriously, "What you can't get, it's always the best." β
Not to mention Scarlett, who has already become famous? Johnson, in terms of the heroine, the crew walked into the agent of many well-known actresses, Annie? Hathaway, Jennifer? Ghana, Amy? Adams, Rachel? McAdams, Katie? Helms and others, they all know very well that as long as they become the heroine of Duke films, they can become the focus of attention in the United States and even the world without much wonderful performance.
Also, Gary named by Duke? Oldman, Michael? Kane and Lawrence? Fishburne all accepted the invitation to audition.
But Duke won't be in the first audition, and he'll be on location in Iceland.
Although the temperature in Iceland in July is not too low, a thick down jacket is still a must for glaciers and high altitudes.
VatnajΓΆkull is located near the city of Hoth in southeastern Iceland, covering an area of 8,300 square kilometers, which is not only the largest glacier in Iceland, but also the largest glacier in Europe, second only to the Antarctic glacier and the Greenland glacier.
Walking on the vast ice field, the sound of the wind whistling in your ears, and the hot springs formed by geothermal heat from time to time, here is like a virgin land far away from human society, nature with its unique ghostly crafts carefully carved those uneven landforms, easy to bring people to enjoy the beauty.
......Standing on a raised plateau, Duke pointed to the vast ice field and said to his director of photography, "Be sure to get a close-up of the big panorama, it's better than I thought it would be." β
"Overhead and flat." John? Schwartzman looked far away, "and then mixed together." β
"It's a good idea."
Duke patted John? Schwarzman's shoulder said to the Icelandic government staff who were accompanying him, "Let's go to the other side of the mountain." β
What appears to be a plain is actually a bowl-shaped plateau, and VatnajΓΆkull is surrounded by towering mountains, some of which can reach more than 6,000 feet above sea level.
Getting into the car, Duke and his party drove towards the mountain peaks in the distance, and along the way, they were greeted by an overwhelming white, the ground was white, and the sky was white. The white, endless, and boundless white miracle is almost domineering, and it is really a wonder in the world.
The sight of the glacier, cold, cruel and extremely primitive, makes people feel like entering a time tunnel in awe......
This is in line with the atmosphere at the beginning of the film! (To be continued.) )
