[US Entertainment] Wild Child
Chapter 38 Jack Must Die
He immediately replied, "You are a girl. That's because McConaughey is too old!" As an underage pedophile, McConaughey is 6 years older than Summer!If she is 11 years old now, the 20-year-old gap is not too big.
Summer laughed heartily on the other end of the airwaves, "He is only 26 years old, and you despise him for being too old." Oh, the reality is too cruel!For a young man like him, anyone older than him is an old man, and anyone younger than him is a child.He never thought that he would grow old one day, nor would he think that he would die one day.
He soon went to Miami and spent a week on the beach with the sea breeze. On April 4, the filming of "Romeo and Juliet" was completed as scheduled according to the shooting schedule, and it was successfully completed.The next day, Leonardo returned to Los Angeles.
Marie Finn soon took him to Cameron's production company.
I met James Cameron, and immediately got into the subject after shaking hands, "Have you read the script?"
"I've read it." Leonardo said in his heart, is that the script? It's just an outline, but he just skimmed the story line, dozens of pages are grand, and it's not the whole outline.
"What do you think of the character Jack?"
"- seems too perfect, I can't find any faults in him, except maybe poor. A young poor painter, talented, kind-hearted, a little - impulsive. To be honest, I think such a perfect character It’s a bit hypocritical.” He likes the kind of characteristic characters with some flaws, not perfect, so that the character of the characters will be more real and layered, such as the little mentally handicapped Arnie, the cowboy boy kid, the basketball boy Jim, Rimbaud, Romeo, so be it.
Cameron lowered his head and smiled, "You're right. But this is a romantic love story, and the male lead would be more likable if he was perfect, after all, he will die in the end."
Leonardo's eyes widened: this was not in the script outline he read. "Wait! So this is a tragedy?"
"It can't be defined so simply." Cameron explained patiently, "You should think about it this way. The love between Jack and Rose is already so perfect. If it weren't for the tragedy and regret of one party's death, you can imagine their marriage. Live? As an artist, Jack would have spent his whole life in poverty at that time. Can you imagine Rose, a rich lady, working as a factory worker or a tutor, arguing with you all day for tomorrow's bread money?"
This is so realistic.So fairy tales always end with "the prince and princess live happily together", and life after marriage can be so boring that it makes people crazy.He thought of his parents, who for as long as he could remember had no money, and Ilmelin had to take George to court for $20 a week in child support.No matter how beautiful the love is, it will be shattered by the reality of firewood, rice, oil and salt, which scares him a little.
Cameron handed him a few pages of line paper, "This is one of the important scenes, you prepare."
He took the script paper and flipped through it quickly.Then he stood up, frowned, and walked around the room, "I don't like this scene." He threw down the script paper.
This scene is about Rose taking Jack back to her cabin and asking him to draw a small portrait of himself. In this scene, Rose takes off her clothes and is completely naked in front of Jack.
He immediately thought of Summer, she would definitely not and would not want to perform naked-body shots.Besides, he is not willing to let her body appear on the big screen, this has nothing to do with her wishes, but largely has to do with his wishes and wishes.
He knew that Cameron wrote this scene to show Rose's rebellion, self-assertion, and free will. When Cameron wrote the script, he would not consider who would play Rose.If it was another actress, he couldn't and couldn't control it, but he always assumed that Summer would play Rose, and everything he imagined for this movie was based on Summer will be working with him again for a few months Based on the premise, he instinctively resisted this scene.
Cameron didn't expect his reaction to be a direct rejection. He was a little annoyed and felt that he was not very professional.Then he suddenly noticed that today's female employees in the company seemed to like him twice as much as the boss. Several groups of people came for trivial matters such as pouring coffee and taking documents for him to sign. In less than half an hour, the intern assistant refilled them It's kind of annoying that it's a different person every coffee, but he can't just yell "you guys stay away from me".
Then he realized that the female staff didn't suddenly find him handsome and gentle as a salaried boss, they all came to see Leonardo.
He stood up, "You read the script again." He walked out of the room, called his personal assistant, and asked her what was going on in the company.
The personal assistant looked excited and gossiped, "You found their favorite boy to audition, they will definitely want to see him more."
Cameron Fufeng: Among the female staff, there are intern assistants in their early 20s who are still in college, 30-year-old theater assistants, 40-year-old finance workers, and 50-year-old cleaners. Are they all fascinated by this boy?
He thought that Matthew McConaughey and Chris O'Donnell were absolutely not so exaggerated when they came. If they were handsome and charming men, it seemed that the female staff did not show much excitement.You must know that there are dozens of Hollywood male stars who have auditioned in his company. These women are well-informed, and very few of them can fascinate them collectively.
"You really think he's attractive? Sexy? Cute?"
The personal assistant nodded abruptly, "Cute and sexy, a boy and a man."
Cameron thought for a while, then waved his hand, "Tell them not to go in if they have nothing to do. Oh, just ask someone to bring the camera in."
Leonardo's next audition was at Fox Studios in Burbank, first with Kate Winslet, still with Rose trying to jump into the sea; then with Summer.
Later that day, first fitting.
Summer and Kate also tried on clothes separately.
Cameron asked the photographer to take pictures of the three of them, and then asked Leonardo to take pictures with Summer and Kate.I took some small Polaroid photos first, and then I took some with a film camera.
Fox's project executive stopped by for a while during the photo shoot, and after the actors left, they went to talk to Cameron again.
Cameron was looking at those Polaroids, arranging some of them on the desk, when the supervisor came in and asked, "What do you think?"
The supervisor looked at the photos carefully and picked out a few.
Cameron breathed a sigh of relief, "You also think they are more suitable?"
"The age is right, besides, they are all Americans. Compared with Kate Winslet, there are more people who know Summer Brook." When it comes to popularity, acting skills are often not really a measure; acting skills are of course the first choice to watch Various film acting awards, Kate just this year with "Sense and Sensibility" nominated Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, she was born in October 1975, nominated under the age of 10; Leonardo also less than 20 years old Nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, but Summer is already the winner of the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. In terms of acting skills, the three are evenly matched.
In terms of popularity, the immigrant Kate is obviously not as good as the native Samo. Even if he does not count the statuette, Samo is still a little Disney star with his own traffic. Of course, Fox must choose an actor with a better box office guarantee. This is inevitable.
Cameron Production Company quickly asked the agents of Leonardo and Summer to discuss the film contract. The agents of the two brought their lawyers to carry out difficult negotiations on the remuneration terms and script terms: Summer is under the age of 18 and will not shoot nude scenes. The producer must revise the script, add a penalty clause for breach of contract, and then pay. It is the figure of the salary, the salary is quoted at 400 million, and the box office dividend is a certain amount.
On the day of the official signing, Summer's contract salary was 200 million, and the box office dividend was 4%; Leonardo's contract salary was 250 million, and the box office dividend was 5%.
Hollywood actor's worth is transparent to each production company. The production company will set the actor's worth in private, and the agent can quote, and then the production company will bargain according to the specific project. It is also common for movies to cut tens of thousands and 10,000+ friendship prices.Kate Winslet's remuneration quotation is definitely lower than Summer's, but both Fox and Cameron feel that the extra remuneration must be a good deal.
Salary is not a secret among friends. The salary figure directly reflects your value in the eyes of the producer, and it is also a specific standard for actors to measure their professional level.
Summer was quite dissatisfied, "Why is every number of mine less than yours? It's not fair!"
"It's only a little bit less." Leonardo comforted her weakly.The unspoken rule of the Hollywood industry is that male actors of the same level will get at least 25% more salary than female actors. Summer already has a statuette bonus. The disadvantage is that he has never acted as a leading actress in a movie before. He is popular, but it is not yet possible to measure his popularity. Converted into the strength of the box office, the 200 million remuneration is actually calculated including the Disney bonus, which is already the highest level among actresses of the same age.
Sam snorted, still very upset.
Toby yelled about having a party.
Lucas asked Summer, do you want to throw a party to celebrate?
Seeing that Summer nodded and agreed to hold a party, Leonardo immediately took over the conversation, "I will pay the expenses." He is not far behind when it comes to eating, drinking and having fun.Besides, Summer seemed a little annoyed that he took an extra 50, so he spent it quickly.
Lucas looked at him and asked maliciously, "Where is Christan? You will invite her."
The author has something to say: * There are quite a lot of interesting stories about Li Zi's audition for Da Chuan.
Summer laughed heartily on the other end of the airwaves, "He is only 26 years old, and you despise him for being too old." Oh, the reality is too cruel!For a young man like him, anyone older than him is an old man, and anyone younger than him is a child.He never thought that he would grow old one day, nor would he think that he would die one day.
