Amy Adams, Jessica chastan and Rooney Mara are among the three actors in the final stage of the competition for the heroine of gravity, but the corners of Langley's mouth show a smile and don't believe Andy's words.
Amy Adams, like Jessica chastan, is a typical representative of late success. This year, Amy is 38 years old, while Jessica is 34 years old. In the early stage of their career, the two actors are struggling and honing their acting skills in the supporting role and the role of dragon. Until the middle of their career, their acting skills gradually shine with appropriate works.
As early as 2005, Amy won the applause of the independent film industry with her delicate and flexible performance in "beetle", and went all the way to the decisive stage of the Oscar, winning her first Oscar nomination for best supporting actress.
But it wasn't until 2007 that Amy's Star Trek really set sail. Among the "magic wonders", she became the oldest princess in Disney History at the age of 32, and became popular with her sweet and lovely image.
After that, a series of works, such as "child abuse doubt", "fighter" and so on, made her reach the peak of her career. Within three years, she was nominated for the Oscar twice, and she was in the limelight for a while.
Now, Amy and Jessica are two of the most popular Hollywood actresses of the Mesozoic era, and the film continues. In Amy's hands, "she", "American hoax", "on the road", "master" and other works have just finished or are in the process of shooting or waiting to start shooting, while "Superman: the body of steel" in preparation, Amy is also shortlisted for the final stage of the heroine selection.
So is Jessica.
Last year, Jessica won the title of "model worker" with seven works. After finishing the dubbing work of "Madagascar 3" and the shooting work of "hunting for Ben * *", she joined the "lawless" crew. In addition, she also had "Salome" and "hunting for Ben * *" "His and her lonely love affair" and other works are waiting to be turned on.
Besides Amy and Jessica, Rooney is a rising force among the new generation of actors. After "social network" and "girl with Dragon Tattoo", the rising speed is very fast. She is the outstanding representative among the young actors along with Jennifer Lawrence, and now there is an endless stream of film appointments.
Just last week, Langley had an email conversation with Rooney. Not long ago, Rooney and Amy Adams, Jacqueline Phoenix, Scarlett Johnson and others completed the shooting of "she". After the rest adjustment, she is preparing to join the "side effects" crew. The director is Steven Soderberg, and the co actors are Channing Tatum, Jude Law, Catherine Zeta Jones and others.
It is no exaggeration to say that these three actresses are the most popular actresses in Hollywood at present. What they have in common is that they have proved their strength in art movies, and their solid and excellent acting skills have been unanimously praised; In addition, they have one thing in common, that is, they are extremely busy, even compared with Lan Li.
Now, these three actresses have become "gravity" heroine candidates?
Lan Li deeply felt that it was not reliable.
According to Barry, "gravity" is determined to start in November, so the scheduling will be the biggest problem. Especially considering that the shooting cycle of this film will take at least two months, what should they do with other works waiting to start on hand?
What's more, neither lanli nor Alfonso Caron can be regarded as the candidates on the "most wanted to cooperate" list. They should be the minority representatives of the "unpopular partners". At least in Langley's personal opinion.
Jessica and Rooney have a lot to follow. They are friends in private. They hope to cooperate with each other; But what about Amy?
Langley and Amy haven't even met, and Amy's partners include such masters as Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Paul Thomas Anderson. Langley doesn't think he can be compared with them.
"Ha ha." Lanli chuckled. "It's a smart joke, but I won't be fooled. To be honest, the audition choice of the heroine has not been made yet, has it? "
"I'm serious. I'm not kidding." Andy was stunned, smiling and serious, and said, "why do you think I'm joking?"
Lenley blinked and said reflexively, "why do they want to play in this work?" "I mean, the last time I sent an email with Rooney, she didn't mention it," she said
Andy didn't answer right away, but he thought for a moment. He gradually reflected and understood what was going on. He couldn't help smiling. Ha ha. " After all, he still couldn't hold back and laughed happily, "Lan Li, so do you lack confidence now?"
Andy never knew that Langley had a lack of confidence. In the impression, Mount Tai collapses in front, but the color does not change. This is their familiar lanli; Especially as an actor, lanli is always firm and self-confident, persistent and focused, and has never been shaken, even without a trace.
But today, Langley's confused words reveal his inner uncertainty, which makes Andy laugh.
"I just said that actors are eager to cooperate with you. It's not a joke." After laughing, Andy said solemnly, "Langley, you have proved yourself to have won a place in the film world all over the world. It's an honor for other actors to cooperate with you."
After a short pause, Andy added half jokingly, "not to mention that every one of your works has been a box office success. No one can refuse such cooperation."
Stunned and surprised solidified in the corner of the mouth, and then accompanied by the rising radian and melting ice and snow, in the depths of the eyes stained with a touch of warmth, complex and profound, but hard to say, finally with a self mocking smile, "I always thought that I was still a new actor."
Even if he won the Berlin Film king, even if he won the Oscar, but in the war in February, all this has no real feeling. Back in the west end and down-to-earth polishing his acting skills, Langley still thinks that he is a young newcomer who needs constant efforts, constant encouragement and constant progress all the time, because——
"You're not a genius. You've never been."
Andy can capture a trace of bitterness and melancholy in lanli's words. Before, he never understood the reason; But now, the family background of the hereditary aristocracy has brought some insights, and Andy gradually begins to understand lanli.
In Hollywood's vanity fair, full of impetuosity and pride, standing in the spotlight, gradually forgetting themselves, losing their nature and forgetting themselves.
With vigour and vitality, raise a Babel of criticism of the world. The success of the world is the result of the mistake of being a little bit of success. It is the center of the world and the peak of the world. Especially the grassroots stars in the Internet age, the attention and popularity on the social network are like bubbles.
But Langley never did. Firm as a rock, that strong belief burst out with unimaginable light, even more dazzling than those awards, those box office, those popularity, those praise. For the first time, Andy really understood the difference between a star and an actor. Fortunately, he met the latter.
"Lanli, I hope you can continue to maintain the original intention, embrace the new attitude, and work tirelessly. Only in this way can I continue to enjoy the pursuit of the whole Hollywood." Andy also joked in the way of self mockery that as long as Langley can continue to succeed, as an agent, Andy will continue to succeed, "but occasionally, you should look at the world outside the actors, you are far more important than you think."
After a pause, Andy added, "do you remember the stage of today's show? I'm not talking about the achievements of your two singles, but that what you have done has really made people realize a rare disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. For God's sake, this is the first time that I have said the name completely. "
"Do you know? In the past month, the discussion and attention on ALS has increased 300 times. Yes, you didn't hear me wrong. 300 times, from search engines to social networks, from traditional media to daily life, everyone has really paid attention to this disease for the first time. As Robin herzer said, "you changed the fate of a group of people."
With that, Andy's voice choked for a moment, and the girl named Heather cross suddenly came to mind, the girl whose life always stays before the age of 17.
"The heather Cross Foundation has raised 10 million yuan in just one month, the first 10 million yuan since the foundation was founded." Andy didn't have a deep understanding of the foundation. Matthew Dunlop was mainly responsible for it. However, Andy offered a lot of help when needed. "This doesn't include your donation."
Ten million. It's not easy for any charitable foundation to raise such a number. But lanli did it, with a strong personal appeal, really changed the fate of a group of people.
No wonder people always say that no matter whether public figures are willing or not, they will bear the corresponding responsibility from the moment they stand in the spotlight, otherwise they will be eliminated by the times sooner or later.
Lan Li showed a smile, "it seems that the hype is effective after all. No wonder those reporters always keep on hyping." So funny that Andy chuckled, "but that's not enough, right? I don't know how difficult it is to study a disease or a new drug, but I know that it can't continue without financial support. "
"Ten million? It's still not enough to defeat an incurable disease, don't you think? "
