Chapter 590

There's something unexpected about Langley. It's not Roy's job, it's Andy's job.

This is the first time that Lan Li has seen so many scripts, all of which are commercial blockbuster scripts. There are many familiar works, not to mention the quality, not to mention whether they can play. Lan Li also clearly knows that this is just a trial of intention, not to mention acting. There is still a long way to go before the audition; But even so, lanli showed his surprise.

This is the first time that Langley has really felt the ability of Andy and the innovative artist agency behind him.

As the largest brokerage company in Hollywood, their contacts and resources are beyond doubt; And thanks to the resource sharing mode within the company, in short, lanli can get the resources that Harrison Ford can get, and new actors can also get the treatment of top actors. The only difference is whether the agents are willing to fight for the actors, and, more importantly, whether the producers are willing to give opportunities.

However, before that, Lan Li's works were mainly works of art, and the only "speed and passion 5" was just a coincidence. In fact, there is only one "Raytheon" that really takes the initiative to find Lan Li's commercial works.

Thus it can be seen that there is a very obvious gap between brokers and non brokers, top brokers and general brokers. Those top resources are always concentrated in the hands of these minority elite brokers.

There are nine plays. Coincidentally, all of these nine works have been seen by lanli in his last life, and they are all mainstream works. That's why Langley is more and more amazed at Andy's work. He should reward Andy with a drumstick one day.

"Andy gave me six scripts before, and the other three were given to me later. However, the Warner Bros project has never appeared, and Andy should still be talking with them. " Roy simply explained that "there are two of these scripts from the independent film company, the ring messenger and the oath, and the others are all six."

For actors, it's not the most important who the company they work with. In the final analysis, script, director and crew members are more important. After all, they basically do not deal with the staff of the film company, there is no intersection between the two sides. At least, until we reach the ranks of Johnny Depp and Tom Hanks.

Lan Li nodded and began to read the script. "You introduce me." In front of other people, lanli naturally can't show the posture of "I have seen the film, I have understood the script". He turns the script at will and shows the posture of listening attentively. In fact, he was more curious about Roy's view of these plays than the plays themselves.

Roy sits on the sofa at will, but his back is straight. We can see from the details that his concentration and devotion at this time saw that Langley first opened the script that he shot. The first one is "Snow White and the hunter".

After sorting out his ideas, Roy said directly that there was a gap in his mind. "This play is adapted from the original fairy tale, but there is no part worth looking forward to. The so-called adaptation is not painful, and the darkness is not obvious. Most of all, the character itself is so bad that I don't see any potential for development. I'm not sure how they will choose the role, but obviously, the hunter is not the main character. To play a male vase in an idol play? I don't think it suits you. "

It's inevitable that some people like art and others hate it. It's the same with scripts and movies. Roy's direct speech is actually a manifestation of self-confidence.

"I don't know why Andy was brought over by the script. I don't know if he took Chris Hemsworth's play wrong Roy in two words or three straight talk from an honest man, make complaints about Andy, and finally taunt Chris.

But Langley looked up at Roy: because in the last life, it was Chris Hemsworth who finally took over the role.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention. Roy didn't know why, so he met lanli's puzzled eyes, "what's the matter? Are you interested in a play based on fairy tales? "

Lanli put the script aside and had no interest in "Snow White and the hunter". What's more, there were many scandals in the last life of this work. First, it broke out that Kristen Stewart and Rupert Sanders, the engaged director, were cheating. Then, the $170 million investment only earned less than $400 million in the global box office, A small loss.

As far as quality is concerned, Langley takes Roy seriously.

Later, when universal decided to shoot a sequel, everyone fell through their glasses. Sure enough, the sequel is hit by verbal criticism, loss to internal injury.

It's like every girl has a dream of Cinderella in her heart. How can a man reject the title of Prince Charming

"Maybe I have one right in front of me." Roy's eyes sank slightly, and there was a hint of certainty in the bottom of his eyes. This time, Langley didn't answer, but just laughed. Then Roy saw Langley pick up the next script, "this is a pure romantic love movie, adapted from the real story of reality, but I think it's much worse than 'love notebook'"

"Oath", the script in lanli's hand has not yet been opened. Hearing Roy's outspoken words, he can't help laughing, "do you instinctively reject romantic love movies? Did your predecessor force you to watch too much Nicolas sparks? "

Nicholas Sparks is known as "Qiongyao of America" in China. He specializes in writing love stories. His three axes of car accident, incurable disease and first love are perfect. Almost all of them have been adapted into movies, and the most famous one is "love notebook".

Roy shrugged his shoulders, noncommittal, "I just think that you've made such an excellent love movie as' crazy love '. You need to be more careful when choosing love stories."

Then, looking at the script of "perfect tone" picked up by lanli, Roy explained directly and simply, "this is a musical film mainly for girls, boys are just vases. Strictly speaking, not even a vase, just a guest. What's more, the story doesn't have many highlights. Unless you want to play a "youth of song and dance" and it's still a background board, I suggest you dance it. "

Although lanli is only 21 years old this year, he is very young, but the campus comedy of high school students is a little too simple, and inexplicably out of place. Even if you want to attract young people, you can choose many projects, such as "speed and passion".

Looking at the smiley look on Langley's face, Roy shrugged. "I think Andy must have taken the wrong script. Even if you want to try musicals, it's not the best choice. There's no need to keep up with the trend. " The firm tone make complaints about Tucao.

Raleigh can sing, and he can sing very well. Roy knows that if he can play in music movies, it is really a good way to give full play to his strengths, but obviously, "perfect tone" will not be the choice.

Langley deeply felt that if Andy was here at the moment, it would be very interesting, which is much more fun than reading the script itself.

As for the last script of the elimination group, "Detective Jack", Roy's conclusion is also simple and clear, "during your filming period, paramount has announced the result, Tom Cruise has decided to play, and then led his own team to take over, from screenwriter to producer to actor selection, so we have missed the opportunity."

"It's said that Tom is not satisfied with the script. He wants to rewrite it all with his trusted screenwriter. I don't know. " Roy added.

In spite of this, Langley did not hesitate to read the script of "Detective Jack". In fact, the quality, word-of-mouth and box office of the work itself are average. Even if Tom plays the leading role, it still fails to stimulate the enthusiasm of the audience.

The reason is simple and straightforward, the hero's image is far from the original novel, and even triggered strong protests from the fans of the original novel. The final rewriting is quite similar to the "mission impossible" hero Ethan hunt, and has no new ideas; Moreover, the scripts and stories return to the style of the cold war, but they can not get rid of the routine and become more boring.

Even if it wasn't Roy, Langley himself didn't have any interest in the four plays, and even looked down on reading them.

But on the other hand, it's very likely that the four scripts themselves don't think much of lanli. After all, from the perspective of role, weight and popularity, in addition to the "oath" that sounds reliable, the other scripts are not suitable for lanli. The reason why these projects are willing to find lanli is probably just to join in the fun.

Of course, Langley is more willing to believe another possibility: they are just Andy's way to test Roy.

Because in addition to the "perfect tone", the other three plays are still attractive in terms of project setting and investment scale. The cast of these works also shows this. The project itself is excellent, but it doesn't mean it's suitable for every actor. It depends on the judgment of agents and managers.

As a result, all four plays were eliminated by Roy.

It can be seen that Roy has carefully read the script and has a basic judgment on the role and the story. He does not simply refuse because of the theme, style, CASS and other reasons. This is a positive sign, at least, Roy has a basic understanding of Langley's preferences.

Next, Lan Li jumps over the uncertain group and reaches for the recommended group“ "Dragon Tiger youth team" and "ring emissary", for Roy's choice, blue Li some small accident; At the same time, Andy's choice was unexpected.

"Among these two plays, I recommend the ring messenger more." Roy did not stop, straight to the theme, clean answer, but let lanli slightly revealed a look of surprise.
