Chapter 173: Daydreamer
Charlotte shrugged.
Having had so many in-depth conversations with Charlize, would he not know that the beauty of this girl is more contemporary?
Even if he recalls the original world, the roles Theron has played, although he has not seen many of them, are mostly modern characters.
Well, "Snow White and the Huntsman", which forced the magic mirror to lie, is an exception.
However, at that time, Theron, who had won the Oscar, had evolved into a complete queen form, which was completely different from Charlize, who was still in the form of a girl.
In fact, Charlotte didn't think about Charlize playing any role in "Guillotine Valley" originally.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have recommended Winona Ryder as the heroine.
However, now that Winona is unconscious, Charlotte's mind has changed
He hopes to use the movie "Guillotine Valley" to solve the mystery of the monster on Depp and Winona.
This first requires pulling Depp into the crew.
Charlotte is confident about this.
Secondly, it is necessary to have one of his own people in the crew who understands Charlotte and can cooperate with him in using spells.
This has to be Charlize.
As for the question of whether girls can play costume roles, Charlotte is not worried
After all, Charlize has enough appearance as a foundation, even if the costume characters are not so brilliant, they will only be relative.
What's more, he still has the disguise technique from the evil god in his hand now, so it's a big deal to help the girl fine-tune it.
What's more troublesome is Charlize's height
"Guillotine Valley" is a costume drama after all, and according to the social atmosphere at the time, the heroine still needs a little bit of a bird's feeling many times.
This is not easy for Charlize, who is 177cm tall. Fortunately, Depp's size is also over 180cm, if he is replaced by Tom Cruise, I am afraid that the prop box will be ready again.
From this point of view, Christina Richie, the heroine of "Guillotine Valley" in the original world, is very suitable, but Charlotte can't use her at all.
No way, he probably knew about it when he wrote the script, and he was only 15 years old this year. At most, even if she is a half-cooked Lori, if she wants to grow up to meet the requirements of the heroine in the script, she can't do it for two or three years.
Time waits for no one!
In contrast, although Charlize is a little taller, it can still be solved by borrowing and other methods.
If you can't do it, you can still let Depp wear high heels!
Anyway, high heels were originally worn by men, especially in the context of the era of the story of "Guillotine Valley", that use even exists.
Of course, in the face of Jodie Foster, Charlotte can't say it so directly. But when he said that Charlize could actually try it too, Miss Actress did not object in the end.
"Finally, let's judge by the makeup audition!"
The two of them just came to this conclusion.
In contrast, the real trouble now is actually the strange ghost attached to Depp and Winona at the same time.
"According to you, could it be that the unknown goblin kept Winona unconscious?"
Jodie Foster asked.
"It's a possibility!"
Charlotte nodded, but was a little embarrassed,
"The problem now is that I still don't recognize the monster's true body. If you don't know your real body, you won't have a way to deal with it. Unless "
His eyes suddenly lit up,
"There's a way!"
Johnny Depp was still sitting at Winona's bedside, reciting the script of "The Valley of the Guillotine" for her unconscious.
Gwyneth sat in a corner of the room and listened quietly.
Charlotte walked in with a basket of carnations.
"Johnny, how's Winona?"
He asked with concern.
"It's not bad, it's just ......"
Depp glanced at the hospital bed with some sadness,
"I can't wake up!"
"That's it!"
Faced with this situation, Charlotte didn't say anything more, he just put the basket of carnations on the table at Winona's bedside.
At this time, Depp suddenly said,
"I'm sorry, Charlotte, I'm afraid I won't be able to take that movie I said before!"
"Can't pick it up?"
"yes!"
Depp smiled a little bitterly and glanced at Winona on the hospital bed,
"Noni is like this, me"
"I see!"
Charlotte nodded,
"But don't jump to conclusions, after all, Winona may wake up soon, and there is still a possibility that the two of you will appear together at that time. ”
"This ......"
It should be said that Charlotte's words are the best scenario that Depp can imagine, which makes him unable to refute.
Seeing this, Charlotte patted Depp on the shoulder,
"Don't jump to conclusions, wait and see, anyway, our preparations will take some time. ”
“...... All right. ”
"That's right, this script"
Charlotte glanced at the script that Depp was holding in his hand,
"Is this what Jodie Foster gave you?"
"Sort of!"
Depp didn't explain that the script was forwarded by Gwyneth.
And Charlotte didn't ask in detail, he just smiled,
"I think it's a script that both you and Winona love, although it's probably a little simpler because it's a commercial film. ”
After saying that, he nodded to Gwyneth on the side and left.
"Johnny, who is he?"
Looking at the back of Charlotte leaving, Gwyneth was a little curious.
"Charlotte Booth. The film is expected to be directed by. ”
Depp raised the script in his hand,
At the same time, he is also the director of "Happy Death Day", which was released some time ago. Gwen, is this the first time you've seen him?"
"yes!"
Gwyneth nodded, remembering Charlotte's name in her mind.
On the other side, Depp saw that no one was disturbing, so he continued to read the script in his hand.
Gwyneth continued to listen quietly, but for some reason, she became a little sleepy and distracted.
Even Depp gradually stopped chanting, and he didn't notice it.
"Good, those two are asleep!"
Through the script of the spell in Depp's hand, Charlotte silently felt the movement in the ward.
He was hiding in the hospital's fire escape at this point, while Jodie Foster had already left.
After all, although the ghost thing is important, the work still has to continue, and the actress needs to go back to continue the preliminary preparations for "Guillotine Valley".
Charlotte, on the other hand, stayed
The basket of carnations he used to visit Winona actually concealed a hypnotic spell.
Charlotte's plan is not complicated, just like when he helped Charlize in the beginning, he is going to design a dream and then pull Depp into the dream.
According to Depp's previous statement, he and Viona sometimes share dreams. Charlotte felt that when the two of them had the same dream, it must be the time of that strange ghost activity.
Now, Winona is in a coma, and Charlotte feels that as long as Depp can be trapped in her preset dreams, she will have a good chance of observing the strange ghost.
As for Gwyneth falling asleep, it was purely piggybacked by Charlotte's spell.
But Charlotte wasn't worried about her, the evil aura in her body should be able to protect her to a certain extent.
However, Charlotte miscalculated this time
As soon as Depp and Gwyneth fell asleep, they were suddenly pulled into a dark dream.
It wasn't Charlotte's preset dream!
