Chapter 339: An Untold Secret
Although out of her own bad taste, Charlotte decided to use the original cast of "Devil's Advocate" to shoot "Detective Hell" to create a "sequel" feeling.
However, in the use of the third important actor in the crew of "Devil's Advocate", he made a difficulty.
That's right, it's Charlize!
Charlotte's current girlfriend, Charlize, is also the heroine of "Devil's Advocate".
However, Charlotte didn't want her to play the heroine in "Hell Detective" anymore and play opposite Keanu Reeves -
"I'm not careful!"
"I'm not careful!"
"I'm not careful!"
Although she repeated the important things in her head three times, Charlotte actually knew very well -
In fact, I am just cautious!
He didn't want his girlfriend to have multiple relationships with other men, especially a handsome guy like Keanu Reeves......
However, fortunately, Charlize, as Charlotte's girlfriend, also knows this man's character.
The girl is not dissatisfied with this little care, and sometimes even feels sweet.
- This is probably Charlotte's luck!
"However, even if Sally is not allowed to play the heroine, let her play a role in 'Hell Detective'!"
Charlotte thought for a moment,
"According to the current script story, the heroine's sister who fell into hell after committing suicide seems to be a good choice, especially Mary, played by Sally in "The Devil's Advocate", which also seems to have committed suicide in the end......
As the coincidental connection between the two films was deliberately constructed, Charlotte's strange sense of accomplishment grew stronger and stronger, and therefore, he set a further cast list before the second version of the script was written-
actor John Constantine, played by Keanu Reeves;
The heroine Angela, played by an undecided person;
The big boss Lucifer, played by Al Pacino;
Isabel (the heroine's twin sister), played by Charlize Theron;
Midnight Daddy, played by Lawrence Fishburne......
"Let's not talk about the first few people, who is this Lawrence Fishburne?"
Looking at the list of actors proposed by Charlotte, Lao Gun couldn't help but be a little stunned.
He always felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy in this, but he couldn't find a problem for a while.
"Is it okay to use this unknown actor to play the role of Midnight Daddy?"
The old gun asked.
"Although he is not very famous, this actor has won a Tony Award, and there should be no problem with his acting skills. ”
Charlotte explained,
"Actually, I first considered Samuel Jackson, but because of "Vulgar", that guy is now quite famous, and the salary and schedule may not be easy to confirm. We're not going to have Denzel Washington or Will Smith play this supporting role, can we?"
"That's right. ”
The old gun nodded helplessly,
"Who made the character of Midnight Daddy the king of voodoo? In the comics, he's a black character. Among the black actors in Hollywood now, there may not be many suitable people. ”
"Let's let Lawrence Fishburne try it first!"
Charlotte shrugged,
"Anyway, it's just an initial list of actors. ”
"Okay. ”
The old gun, who also had no good way, agreed with Charlotte.
In fact, Charlotte will know about Lawrence Fishburne, or because of the "Matrix" in the original world-
In that classic sci-fi movie, it was Keanu Reeves who played the protagonist Neo, and Morpheus, who helped him, was played by Lawrence Fishburne.
It should be said that the performance is very good.
Therefore, when making a list of actors, Charlotte, who played a stalk, simply listed him as a candidate for Midnight Daddy.
This can be said to be the embodiment of Charlotte's bad taste, although before the filming of "The Matrix" has started, no one except Charlotte herself may know the mystery.
"But why hasn't the heroine been decided?"
Looking at the list of actors listed by Charlotte, Lao Gun still didn't quite understand,
"And, according to your usual style, since you called Sally to play it, why don't you let her play the heroine?"
"This ......"
Charlotte didn't know how to explain it, but the old gun "understood" on his own,
"I don't want to use the same heroine all the time, and reduce the freshness of the movie, so as to be criticized by film critics, right?"
“...... Yes. ”
Thanking the old gun for the justification given in her heart, Charlotte asked,
"Do you think there are any other suitable candidates?"
"Other Candidates......
The old gun scratched his head,
"The role of the heroine Angela is not difficult to play, but whether she can play it well depends on the chemistry with the actor Keanu Reeves!"
"You're right. ”
Charlotte nodded.
In his memory, the heroine of the original "Hell Detective" actually had some problems-
Although Rachel Weisz, as an actor who later won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, her acting skills are still good. As one of the English roses, her appearance is also intellectual and beautiful.
However, in the original Detective Hell, the chemistry between her and Keanu Reeves is not very obvious.
Although, this may have a lot to do with Keanu Reeves' own acting skills, Charlotte always felt that the other party's performance in "Hell Detective" was not very good.
"At least, whether it is the state of a policewoman or the later possession of demons, her role is not enough in terms of aesthetic expression. 」
Charlotte pondered in her heart,
"It's also a matter of directing, but it would have been better if we could find an actress who could play that dangerous and glamorous feeling. 」
Thinking of this, Charlotte suddenly remembered a good candidate,
"Old gun, what do you think of Jodie Foster?"
"Let her play the heroine?"
The old gun frowned,
In "The Silence of the Lambs", she played the FBI policewoman really well. And her acting skills can also be trusted, especially last time she also made a cameo appearance as a dangerous female killer in "Happy Death Day...... Looks like it really can!"
"Then let's try it first!"
Charlotte made a decision.
It's also funny to say, although Charlotte's four movies so far have all had investment from Jodie Foster, but as an actor, Miss Actress's cooperation with Charlotte is limited to the cameo in "Happy Death Day".
And now "Hell Detective" may be another opportunity to cooperate!
While Charlotte continued to carefully revise the character settings in the script according to the list of actors she had listed, she asked Lao Gun to start sending out audition invitations to various actors......
