When Seth's mood got to the top, impulsive words came to his mouth, but then his thoughts cooled a little. At least he has been in Hollywood for nearly ten years, and he has participated in six works as a producer, not just impulsive teenagers.
But at this point, Seth hesitated for a millisecond and decided to tell the truth. In the conversation tonight, Lan Li was always frank and sincere. He even nodded his head and agreed to the acting request without any hesitation. Naturally, he could not hide it at will. He had to be honest.
"In real life, there is such a little story. Before chemotherapy, will, in a rage, stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom and shaved all his hair. He shaved his head. We hope to move this segment to the film intact, and truly present the action and the process in the film. "
Said, after all, said, Seth closed his eyes tightly, the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
In the eyes of laymen, the image of an actor is not as important as that of a singer. After all, actors need to constantly change their shapes according to different roles, and the same image means that the stage is narrow. But this is not the case.
Actors need to create a fixed brand according to their own image, even the actor is no exception, which is one of the important parts of commercial packaging. It's the same with the slovenly, independent movie focused actors like Sean pan. The only difference is the image orientation.
When choosing a character, don't change the overall image, just change part of the image, which also needs to be discussed. An actor of Tom Cruise's level will even specify the details of his hairstyle, clothes and make-up in his contract. Any change needs to be cautious.
As the actor's shape is relatively stable, can change the part is relatively small, so the status of hair is highlighted. All professionals agree that hairstyle is an actor's second face.
Not to mention that when Justin Bieber cut off the iconic bangs, he became a sensational gossip in the United States, and made numerous headlines; Even Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and others, their hairstyles are relatively fixed, and every change is the result of their internal team negotiation.
Now, as soon as Seth came up, he asked Langley to shave his head. In Hollywood, this is definitely a change in the magnitude of the earthquake.
What's more, it can't be achieved through special make-up, because they want to see actors actually shave their heads in front of the camera.
Seth and will both like this scene very much. Even though the times have changed, they still think it is very memorable when they recall that scene. They really want this clip to be in the movie.
James McAvoy resigned at the last minute, even tearing up the contract, partly because of the conflict between the shooting schedule and the "X-Men" publicity plan, and partly because 20th Century Fox expressed concern that if James shaved his head, it would have a negative impact on the film publicity.
It is worth mentioning that, in a recent British local vote "who is more beautiful than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie", James beat Daniel Radcliffe and Benedict Cumberbatch to win the championship.
It can be said that at one time and another, when James signed the "anti-cancer me", the situation had changed dramatically. Apart from "X-Men", it is also worth pondering what role James and his agent played in this farce.
So, what's Langley's turn?
That's Seth's biggest worry. Lanli is only 21 years old now. He suddenly challenges such a big role in appearance. He even has to sacrifice his handsome appearance and shave his head directly. This is a huge impact on lanli's rising career, and may even affect the next series of plans——
What about going to the Oscars? Walking on the red carpet with a bald head, it is estimated that female fans will be heartbroken!
How to promote "speed and passion 5"? Van diesel, tyris Gibson and Luda Chris are already bald. Universal Pictures doesn't want to see lanli, who has the appearance of an idol, join the ranks!
But Seth can't lie.
He would rather have Langley protest, and then both sides sit down and talk slowly, looking for a solution. Even if they still can't reach a consensus in the end, they can only let it be; Instead of choosing deception and concealment, and then detonating a bloody drama again, the crew, Lan Li and himself will be put into a more embarrassing quagmire.
"I think it's going to be very interesting." Lan Li couldn't help but smile. When he watched the movie, he was deeply impressed by this scene. Unexpectedly, he had a chance to try it.
Shave your head? Lan Li couldn't help but be curious. What would he look like if he shaved his head?
"You mean... Interesting?" Seth closed his eyes tightly, then opened them carefully, a little incredulous. "So, you mean, you don't mind?"
"My English expression should be OK." Lansley's teasing made Seth laugh.
The sincerity of Seth can be clearly felt even through the mobile phone; What's more, if it wasn't for sincere invitation, Langley would not have been in Seth's sight at the beginning——
Seth Logan and James Franco are really good friends, even beyond the category of good friends.
Seth and James have cooperated in many works such as "Pineapple Express", "interview", "the end of the world", "sausage party" and so on. Moreover, as long as they are called by their friends, they are duty bound to guest star in each other's movies for free at any time. Even if they are wearing a pair of underpants, it's no exaggeration.
Recently, the media has been hyping the confrontation between Langley and James.
Rumor has it that James squeezed out Lan Li and took over the Oscars; The competition between the two actors has become white hot. Some media even turned over their speeches at the Toronto Film Festival, saying categorically that they didn't like each other.
Even though the two actors never respond to these rumors in public.
There is no grudge between Langley and James. They have not even talked to each other in private, but objectively speaking, they are not really good friends. Moreover, the recent media rumors are so lively that it is inevitable that there will be some embarrassment between the two strangers.
As a good friend of James, Seth naturally can't say that he is very close to lenley.
Under such circumstances, Seth has many choices. Apart from Langley, there are countless suitable actors in Hollywood. Joseph Gordon Levitt is a direct candidate. But Seth still chose Langley, and did not turn back.
So, in fact, Langley believed that he was Seth's first contact object; During the call just now, Seth's performance also confirmed this.
In the face of Seth's worry about gain and loss, Lan Li's mood also relaxed. He took the initiative to open his mouth and jokingly said, "besides this, is there anything else I need to pay attention to in advance?"
"No! No more! " Seth waved and coughed. "So, I think we'll meet in Seattle?"
In fact, Seth hopes that Langley would fly over to Seattle tomorrow, not for rehearsal in advance, but for feeling down-to-earth security. James is really scared out of his wits. But he also knew that it was unrealistic, and he asked too much.
So when the words came to our lips, it changed, "as soon as possible, I mean, will and I can't wait to see you." Some incoherent, but still round back, "early warning, see will, don't be disappointed." Before hanging up, Seth still forgot to make complaints about her friends, so that people could not help laughing.
Hang up the phone, Lan Li's mind on the appearance of heather.
People's diseases are like cancer, but they are more cruel and terrible than cancer. Not only because there is still no effective treatment for this disease, let alone a radical cure; Also because the disease is too clear, too real, so that patients slowly witness their own death.
I don't know if Heather will like "cancer fighting me"? Or, like his last life, he hated this movie?
Langley expected that this would ignite a glimmer of hope in Heather's heart.
Sitting on the sofa, Lan Li's mind is back to the last life. After he woke up in the hospital bed, he learned what he felt and what he thought when he was paralyzed.
He originally thought that those distant memories had been buried in the endless darkness of 21 years ago, and everything had become blurred. I'm afraid he could not remember it. But after the precipitation, he tasted it carefully, but it became so clear again, and the pictures became fresh little by little, and the tip of his tongue became bitter.
It turned out that he never really forgot.
The ring of the mobile phone rings again, and the link of thoughts is cut off. Lan Li takes down the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, puts the mobile phone to his ear again, and connects the phone.
Without waiting for him to speak, Andy's eager voice came over without any pause, just like rain beating banana, pattering down.
"Lan Li, what's going on? Why do I hear Seth say you have to shave your head? Are you serious? Why do you want to shave your head? This is ridiculous! Can't this matter be discussed again? For example, special effects make-up, you just wear a headgear, pretend to be bald, there is no need to shave all your hair. If it's Seth's problem, I'll talk to him in the past. It can't be rash! Really
Andy's gaffe is rare.
