Some of the heads of the investors, producers and distributors gathered together to watch the filming of "Joker", they were very optimistic about the script, and they also believed in Wu Wei's acting skills, the key is that most of the investment in the whole drama was borne by Wu Wei's personal company, and the overall investment amount was not high.

It's not a film that needs big scenes, and that's why they need to see what really happens, and that's how to determine how much they want to do with the film.

No matter how good the script is, it depends on the effect of real shooting.

Wu Wei found a one-man show, he didn't mind performing for anyone, and he was even very happy to release this desire to perform.

On the street, he is a clown who is bullied, the lowest existence in Gotham City, and he has a mental illness, he needs to show the street clown with the best smile, he wants his smile to be infectious, to be able to talk about a good talk show, to dream of that stage, and to be interviewed by the host he admires the most in that show.

Compared with the clown in "The Dark Knight", who has been fully embraced, now it is the process of becoming a clown.

In an empty room, Wu Wei did not perform in kind, not specifically for a certain person, but when playing this clown, he found that in a person's imaginary world, there can be more room for development.

Above the subway, Arthur is laughing, angering a few thugs.

Wu Wei sat in the chair and smiled, that laughter would be quite scary if you set him as a clown, but if you could substitute it for a middle-aged man like Arthur, you would feel very pathetic, and it was the kind of pathetic that did not deserve your sympathy.

was beaten, no one was beating him, but Wu Wei was performing very seriously, in his world, there were three men beating him, he wanted to resist, but he was powerless to resist, he was knocked to the ground, and in the laughter of the three people, he kept being kicked by a kick.

The revolver that is inadvertently exposed during the day, you will think he is ridiculous at that time, but when the gunshot sounds, one is directly shot in the head.

One was shot several times in a row, one was shot in the leg, and fled frantically.

More than a dozen viewers in the room were completely ignored by Wu Wei, and he was now in the scene, Director Phillips completely ignored the others, and squatted directly on the ground, as close as possible, watching Wu Wei's performance, clenching his fists, and trembling slightly.

In his sight, it was the same scene as Wu Wei.

Arthur, who stood up, was stunned for a few seconds, but his eyes gradually became firm and became crazy.

Then, the sound of the newspaper station in the subway sounded, which made him wake up, and he found that he had found his true self, Wu Wei's performance was crazy, at that moment, he was Arthur and a clown, at this moment of transformation, his performance had no trace, just like everyone's evaluation of him in "The Dark Knight", he was not acting, because he was a clown.

Going back in time, he goes back to the moment when he became a clown.

In the room, Wu Wei raised his arm, there was nothing in his hand, and everyone knew that he was holding a gun at the moment.

Not only did the courage come, but the brain was also smart, guarding the subway door, and the guy who bullied him had to be killed, and when the radio broadcast was about to close, the guy ran out and limped, and then Arthur chased him out.

Wu Wei's footsteps, those few steps, are very close to the clown in the performance state, the clown performer on the stage and on the street, the pants raised high, the cropped pants, the socks are exposed, and a pair of leather shoes are playful rather than solemn.

The Joker walks, fast, broken steps, the Joker at this time, or the Performer Clown, is not the Joker who messed up Gotham City, but Arthur is gone.

Pull the trigger, knock down, get closer, replenish your gun, drain all the bullets at once, and then run in the light of night.

In the place just now, there was no one, he lacked a feeling that I was also the best in the crowd, scared, frightened, overwhelmed, ran out of the subway station.

The night is a street where people come and go, not an empty underground, here, Wu Wei runs, in this room, there is no restraint, not bound by space, not bound by the people around him.

Everyone here has read the script, Wu Wei clearly told everyone, we allow the existence of laymen, but you need to do your own thing, here, a person who has never understood the script or clowns at all, can not feel the charm of Wu Wei's performance at all.

It wasn't a dance, it was more like a process of self-affirmation that went through the ups and downs of life, after a frantic run, in the common bathroom, there was a mirror in front of him, but Arthur was not looking at a mirror.

This solo dance, when they saw the script, everyone knew that it must be a scene of a huge turning point, compared to the turn of behavior and events, what is needed here is Wu Wei's best performance, so that the audience can accept the movie of a one-man show, the process of role transformation.

Arthur's eyes, at first it was fear, fear, hesitation, overwhelm, and a little bit of joy, the whole body was trembling, he needed to make the body move, in order to control the body that couldn't suppress the trembling, a few stretching movements, Arthur's eyes changed very complicatedly, began to be firm, began to have brilliance, began to become more crazy.

Arthur is gone, and the clown is coming.

Just like this character, in the dark and closed bathroom, in the dirty and messy environment, growing like a weed, completing the bloom of self-redemption, he needs to be recognized by others, needs others to see his changes, and needs to let those who deny him know that the little pity in your eyes is no longer the same him.

Some people say that when you're not embarrassed, you're embarrassed by others.

There is an assistant to the person in charge of the distribution company at the scene, he has not read the script, but he has watched "The Dark Knight", read the comics, and thinks that he also understands the role of "Joker", and he admits that Wu Wei's performance in "The Dark Knight" is at the ceiling level, and it is a classic that is really difficult to copy.

But is the performance at this moment really a clown? Why is everything embarrassing, and does the clown have to counterattack from a humble person to a big man?

couldn't help laughing, Wu Wei was still immersed in his performance, and there was nothing in his eyes.

Director Phillips glared back at the assistant, and motioned to the other party to go out unceremoniously, he now hates everyone who disturbs the performance at this moment, before filming Arthur's small bottom stage, he has been amazed by Wu Wei's performance again and again.

There have been conversations, but the finished version in Phillips' mind is still based on the Joker in "The Dark Knight", and he also thinks that the evolved Joker in the last moment of this film should be like that.

But today's performance subverted all his cognition, he felt that he was wrong, as the director of a movie, he actually had a discrepancy with the idea of the male lead of the big male lead, if there was no performance, it could still be discussed, with this performance, Phillips, who had already understood the script, knew that Wu Wei was not compiling the script, but the clown life simulated from the perspective of a clown after he became a clown.

At the end of this play, it is by no means a full-body clown, but a crazy clown, so that the timeline of this play can echo the timeline of "The Dark Knight", but there is a long difference in the middle, if it is a full-body clown so early, will there be Batman in Gotham City? The whole city has long been turned upside down by him.

Since it is different, the way of acting and the effect of the performance should be different, this as a director, Phillips did not dare to think, he simulated several stages of the clown, and found that no matter how he simulated it, it didn't seem to be that taste.

Today, he knows what a real clown looks like?

In Wu Wei's performance, the clown has a complete life, and Wu Wei will show what he looks like in a certain period of time or in a certain event.

What was the 'original' version of the Joker like when Phillips was too much to look forward to? The clown of the whole body, let everyone be intoxicated by it, whether you like it or not, the state of Wu Wei's performance will make you have a certain degree of understanding of the complexity of this role, just like an interesting puzzle, which will make you can't help but want to solve it, even if it is cruel, it does not prevent you from solving the puzzle as a way of entertainment.

The biggest investor is the actor in front of him, so Phillips is not too interested in observing these people today, he is like hysteria, pulling Wu Wei and starting a discussion belonging to the two people, for the clown, Phillips also has his own understanding, he hopes to get Wu Wei's resonance, and then present it through his superb acting skills.

This clown is by no means just a prequel to "The Dark Knight", nor is it the growth history of the clown that everyone simply thinks.

Wu Wei is playing the clown himself, his life, not the clowns at all stages who continue the context of the movie.

The two movies, maybe a few years apart in the timeline, must be in the same vein under the conventional understanding, followed by the front and the back.

That's a movie, it's different from Wu Wei's current performance, his is life, and the timeline of the movie story is a few years apart, and the clown he plays will be different.

In the state of the clown, even if he is a complete body, every once in a while, there will be changes, this change, people who are not really able to immerse themselves in the plot of the movie and the role of the clown, will definitely not find out, let alone understand, and even question his performance, feeling that he is playing wrong.

From this day on, the real speaker in the crew became Wu Wei, not because he was an investor, but because the director was convinced of his performance, so it was about the performance of all clowns, the director was a guest and a lively audience, and the other actors he directed were all in line with Wu Wei's performance style.

For the scene of chatting with the counselor, Phillips specially invited a veteran Hollywood actor, and the message to the other party was very simple, you act according to the script, as for what kind of state you enter, it depends on the opponent actor opposite you.

Talk show hosts, colleagues, mothers, the performances of these characters are all Wu Wei with each other, he used his own way to interpret what is called 'drama bully', scene after scene, the opponent actors are miserable, and the inappropriate ones are changed one after another, for which the crew spent a lot of money, but in Phillips's eyes, everything is worth it.

It's not that Wu Wei is domineering, it's that others can't catch his plays, it's always Wu Wei's flawless performance, but the opponent actors are always N machines.

As for the so-called female number one in the play, the female neighbor changed six actors to audition, Wu Wei was willing to take it, and they were all matched actors that Warner found as much as possible according to the script, all kinds of skin colors, and all countries, and the effect of the performance was not good.

If it was Phillips's standard before filming started, the performances of at least two actresses here would be appropriate, but now, he only saw Wu Wei on the monitor, without each other, crushing the game.

As a director, under normal circumstances, he would ask Wu Wei to take it a little, or let him take the other party, Phillips can't say anything similar in this play, this drama may not be a classic, after all, a weak growth history, no matter how rebellious you have performances and settings, there are limited surprises in the storyline.

But performance can be a classic.

Phillips even thinks that in this play, Wu Wei's performance surpasses "The Dark Knight", he is no longer acting, he is interpreting a living clown with life. Phillips has no doubt that if the current Wu Wei wears the makeup of a clown and goes out to do some clown behavior, he is guaranteed to let the 'Buddha broadcast' come to the door.

Because of the previous filming of "Operation Red Sea", Wu Wei's hair is short, and his skin can use some special equipment to make a sickly fair feeling in a short time, what about hair? For this reason, I found many hairstylists, and finally combined with special effects makeup artists, I gave Wu Wei a medium-long hair.

The crew is not short of money, and all props and costumes are also prepared as much as possible to meet the requirements of the director and actors, and every set of clothes, even if it is a shirt or socks, Wu Wei is personally selected.

In order to present a better effect, he found the best special effects makeup artist in Hollywood, and it took more than ten hours to shoot those scenes, just to make special effects makeup for the body, and it could only look real under the cover of clothes, otherwise it would be exposed.

Others don't have muscles to make fake muscles, he has good muscle lines, and to do the feeling of being sick and thin, he must have clothes to cover up, otherwise the feeling of being very 'strong' can't be covered up no matter what.

seems to be a one-man show with a small-budget movie, but it is crazy to improve in every detail, especially in terms of actors, there are not many scenes but it is also the choice of the female number one, and it is not allowed to have any words such as 'okay', 'good', and 'can'.

"If you can't find a good one, the play is not exciting enough, then take the role of 'discussing life' to make up, how can it be R-rated, then it will be even crazier." Eventually, Phillips found an entry point at the suggestion of a friend, and at this point, the search for actresses began to spread......
