Chapter 518: Deadly Beauty
"So, you finally decided to use this addict!?"
After seeing off Robert Downey Jr. and closing the door to the audition room, Old Gun sighed.
He looked at Charlotte with some concern,
"Although he does have good acting skills and the salary is low enough, once he relapses, he ......"
"Don't worry, old gun!"
Charlotte patted her old partner on the shoulder,
"I'm going to have people sign very harsh restrictions with him - if he takes drugs again, not only will he not get a penny, but he will even have to pay us a huge amount of compensation, as long as he has a little brain, he will not die. β
"Hopefully!"
The old gun shrugged.
After seeing Robert Downey Jr.'s acting skills, and thinking about Charlotte's low salary for him, Lao Gun didn't object much to letting Robert Downey Jr. play Sherlock Holmes.
After all, this guy has played Chaplin before.
He has some experience in playing roles with a specific image.
It's just that the old gun still has some complaints about Donnie's drug addiction.
Although the other party has repeatedly assured that he has quit and promised not to commit it again, how can Lao Gun easily believe such words after being in this circle for so many years?
- Is there anything more implausible than the words of an actor and an addict?
Anyway, the old gun has little confidence in Donnie's assurance.
"I just hope he can at least endure until the end of the filming!"
The old gun thought so.
As for handing over Watson's role to Jude Delo, he didn't have much of a problem.
- Robert Downey Jr. is also very handsome, but after all, he is not that kind of strong looks, if you add Jude Delowe, the appearance of the actor in "Sherlock Holmes" is very guaranteed.
But what about the heroine?
"Charlotte, you want to make Erin Adler the heroine, right?"
"Yes. β
Charlotte nodded.
There's really no way around itβ
After all, Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes treats women as air most of the time.
With the exception of Erin Adler, who played him once in "A Bohemian Scandal", Holmes rarely has a heartfelt feeling for other women.
As a result, although Conan Doyle never wrote about it, among the many fanfiction stories about Sherlock Holmes, everyone always used Erin Adler as the first choice with Sherlock Holmes CP.
- Unless Dr. Watson is made a girl, there is no female character in the story of Sherlock Holmes who will be the opponent of Erin Adler.
And Charlotte's "Sherlock Holmes", since Jode Elo has chosen to play Watson, this motherhood option naturally does not exist.
Erin Adler naturally became the first choice for the heroine.
"So which actress are you going to find to play Erin Adler?"
The old gun asked,
"If you want to show her savvy side, Jodie Foster is a good choice. β
But Judy's overall temperament is on the weak side. β
Charlotte shook her head,
"I need an Erin Adler who is both smart and decisive, feminine and feminine, and at the same time has a tough aura - such a woman can attract Sherlock Holmes and make the audience recognize. β
"Okay, but among the actresses in Hollywood now, how many of them have a soft temperament and a tough aura?"
The old gun muttered,
"It's basically going left and right at the same time!"
Indeed, although Hollywood is like a garden full of flowers, there are all kinds of beauties in it, but most of them are mainly feminine, and the few tough ones are mostly similar to Linda Hamilton.
- That kind of toughness comparable to a man, apparently not what Charlotte wanted.
"In that case, Tom Cruise's wife, Nicole Kidman, is a good choice!"
The old gun suddenly thought of a candidate.
"Nicole Kidman!?"
Hearing the name, Charlotte couldn't help but think of Tom Cruise, who he had suspected of having a connection with a mysterious ghost.
- Unfortunately, Rivan has been investigating for a long time, but still hasn't found any clues from Tom Cruise.
This made Charlotte a little helpless.
"She seems to have had some conflicts with Tom Cruise lately, aren't these two people going to divorce?"
He asked casually.
"Who knows?"
The old gun shrugged,
"Hollywood Marriage!"
"Yes. β
Charlotte nodded.
Coming from the future, he naturally knows that Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise's 10-year marriage is coming to an end, and he also knows that this Australian beauty is a big name for box office poison.
Although this Australian woman is quite beautiful, she is a little "fierce" in appearance, which makes her beauty more like a "dangerous beauty".
Just like the man-eating flower, although it is beautiful, it always makes people subconsciously want to stay away.
Of course, this is just Charlotte's analysis.
Why Nicole Kidman became a box office poison, I'm afraid no one can say.
However, in the first few years after divorcing Tom Cruise, the other party mixed well, and the box office appeal also had some popularity.
This may be a side effect of the divorce battle with Tom.
But Charlotte doesn't care where this appeal comes from-
It's good to be useful, anyway, if there is no deviation, the release time of Charlotte's "Sherlock Holmes" should be the hottest years after Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise's divorce.
"Then put Nicole Kidman on the shortlist first!"
Charlotte shook her head, and suddenly remembered a similar candidate,
"Old gun, what do you think of Famick Jensen?"
"Famick Jensen!?"
Lao Gun thought about it for a while, and then remembered this model-turned-actress,
"Her image is indeed very good, she can be called beautiful. However, after the failure of "Extreme Deep Cold", many directors were reluctant to use her. β
"It's normal. After the failure of the movie, from the director to the hero and heroine, they all have to take the blame. β
Charlotte shrugged,
"Her beauty also belongs to the kind with a sense of danger, and it may be very good to play Erin Adler!"
In fact, Charlotte mentions Famick Jensen because in the original world, the role played by the other party left a deep impression on him.
That's right, Famick Jensen is the old version of the "Phoenix Girl" in the "X-Men" series.
Its image in its normal state is okay, but the blackened image of "Dark Phoenix" left a deep impression on Charlotte.
In particular, she also played a villain witch in "Hansel and Gretel", and her image is very amazing......
"You're right!"
After imagining it in his mind for a while, the old gun nodded, but then his face became strange,
"Wait, Charlotte, there's a small problem!"
"What's the problem?"
"Robert Downey Jr.'s size!"
β...... That's really a problem. β
