Hugo continued to move forward, whispering and communicating with Curtis about the press conference and today's shooting plan. The two producers are bound to be extremely busy today on the first day of the boot. Russell and Heath followed Hugo closely. Even if they couldn't get in a word, they still couldn't restrain the throbbing in their hearts.
Russell and Heath’s gaffe is indeed normal for the crew, because they all know how rare it is to have a chance to appear on the "L.A. Confidential" crew. Russell’s role in Bud is rumored throughout Hollywood. A total of 17 people participated in the competition-12 of the 17 candidates were from the three major brokerage companies. The fierce competition can be described as fierce.
As for the small role of Matt Heath, the Screen Actors Guild received 57 applications, not to mention that the competition for the heroine Lynn caused the three major agencies to fight the grand occasion. There are even rumors that the international Marvin Josephson, CEO of Innovation Management Agency, in order to allow his artist Demi Moore to get the role of Lynn, on the night of the party at the Hugo Malibu Villa, he and Martin, the senior partner of Innovative Artist Agency -Baum scuffles into a ball.
Of course, rumors are only rumors, no one can confirm. Only Barry Meyer can know how grand this time the "L.A. Confidential" casting is. As many as 63 brokerage companies in Hollywood have participated in the fight for more than 70 roles with lines on the crew. There are as many as 600 actors who are actually exposed to role auditions. Even if the four core roles are not deducted, the average role is close to nine actors fighting for each role.
On the surface, the shortlisting of Russell and Heath, including Charlize's victory, went very well, but in fact the struggle behind it was a big show.
Almost everyone in the Hollywood industry knows one thing. Since the 1992 Golden Raspberry Awards, every work that Hugo Lancaster has starred in has either box office or awards, or both business and word of mouth, or miracles. , Or write brilliant.
As an actor, being able to perform with Hugo is not only a dream opportunity for many newcomers, but also a collaboration that many senior actors are happy to see. From "Before Sunrise" to "Seven Deadly Sins" to "Death Row", all the actors who performed with Hugo burst out with tremendous energy and repeatedly achieved breakthroughs. Even Morgan Freeman lamented. The experience of playing against Hugo is one of the most memorable experiences in his career as an actor.
More importantly, this time Hugo will also appear as a producer of "L.A. Confidential". For agents and actors, this is almost a guarantee of masterpieces and almost a guarantee of success. Who knows if this is the next "Independence Day" or the next "Pulp Fiction", but it is certain that even if it is the next "Before Sunrise", no one wants to miss it.
Therefore, the casting process is so tragic. It is almost one of the most exciting events after the film industry regained its glory in the 1980s. It reminds people of the crazy scene of people empty in the public casting of "Star Wars 3" in 1981. .
Of course, Russell and Heath's excitement and even gaffes are justified, and no one will blame them.
"We have too many locations, more than sixty locations. If we don't want to delay the progress, we must ensure that we finish shooting at two or three locations every day... Wait, when is the expected date of the movie, David said?" Yu Guo stopped and looked at Curtis a little irritably.
After Hugo got the shooting schedule yesterday, he has been in a state of anxiety. This is not a good thing for the adjustment of shooting conditions. Fortunately, Hugo is already well-trained and there should be no problem. But now when discussing with Curtis, it is still inevitable to start to get irritated again.
"September," Curtis also frowned embarrassedly, "but the exact date has not been set yet...?" Curtis is also not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
"Mad, a bunch of crazy." Hugo frowned, which means that the shooting and post-production time for "L.A. Confidential" is only less than four months, and the speed is really too fast. "You plan to post-production together. , Or edit every day?" Hugo looked at Curtis and asked.
"Every night," Curtis replied neatly, "I plan to shoot according to the timeline, and then keep the secret of the ending, and only announce the script of the day to the actors every day, and try to brew the emotions according to the film process as much as possible. Get up." So far only four protagonists have received the full version of the script.
Hugo nodded. Although he didn’t know anything about film post-production, he knew clearly that they didn’t have much time wasting during the filming stage. The props are divided into three groups. While we are shooting here, the other two groups first go to other locations to arrange the scene, and then after the shooting is over, we move quickly, and we can directly invest in shooting there.” This is also Hugo's fight. With the benefit of more budget, there is obviously more room for activity.
"However, the requirements for the actors are very strict, they must enter the state immediately, and there is no time to waste the actors." Curtis does not want this, but it is definitely not an easy task.
Hugo let out a long breath, but smiled at Curtis, "Fortunately, our cast is trustworthy." Then he gave Curtis a meaningful look.
Curtis quickly understood that among the four protagonists, except for the new Hollywood face Russell, the performance skills of the other three have been recognized. Even Russell, his previous performances have already received many comments. . On the most important heroine, Charlize’s three works in the past year, "Before Sunrise", "Romeo and Juliet", and "Devil's Spokesperson" have proven their strength, especially the recently completed "Devil's Spokesperson" , The crew is also full of praise for Charlize. At this point, you can see the advantage. If you choose Kim Basinger, although it may not necessarily be a problem, it is certain that things will not be so optimistic.
"Curtis, what is this?" Hugo's voice planned Curtis's thinking. He raised his head and saw Hugo standing next to the trailer. Hugo had a puzzled expression on his face because of the sticker on the trailer. With a huge "Hugo Lancaster", it is very difficult not to pay attention.
This is a huge trailer with a well-equipped RV in the back, where you can sleep, bathe, cook, etc.
Curtis smiled, "Your mobile lounge, a gift from Barry." Although he wanted to take it lightly, he still couldn't restrain the excitement in his voice.
After entering the 21st century, especially after the rapid development of the Internet, the RV has become a must-have item for the top stars of the crew, and even most crews will prepare one-for all the actors of the crew as a mobile lounge, dressing room, and changing room Use, only a few top superstars can own their own RV. On the one hand, it is in the consideration of movement, so that the crew can move at any time, and there is no need to temporarily clean up the scene; on the other hand, it is also in consideration of privacy. The interruption of the onlookers to the actors is rising rapidly with the appearance of blogs, and the RV can avoid these to the greatest extent. Pay attention to the line of sight.
But now in 1997, let alone the actors, even the entire crew does not use too many RVs—Hugo once used it in the "Pulp Fiction" crew because the crew needs to travel around Los Angeles for a long time. Of course, this is also related to the current shooting mode of the crew. The era of commercial blockbusters has just begun. Today, Hugo made history unintentionally, becoming the first Hollywood actor to own a private caravan lounge-a gift from the CEO of Warner Bros.
Although there were enough surprises today, Hugo still stared at the RV in front of him. Hugo certainly does not lack the money to buy a private lounge of his own, but lies in the unique treatment of the crew. The special treatment is really fascinating.
"Wow, does this mean that I can sleep in the RV and be late for shooting on purpose?" Hugo said excitedly, Curtis, Heath, Russell and other staff standing next to them all. Black line-even if there is no RV, no one can stop Hugo from wanting to play a big name.
It is a pity that Hugo hasn't taken the gift seriously yet, and he started to get busy again, because the reporters who came to the press conference have already blocked the scene A total of 73 media outlets and more than 200 reporters arrived at the scene, making the open-air conference scene bloated. There are obviously no border restrictions, but it still makes people feel that the street is almost broken.
Curtis and David successively pacified the restless media, but it was still to no avail. As a result, Hugo could only come out in person-as a producer.
When they saw Hugo appearing next to the temporary outdoor stand of the press conference, the reporters immediately started booing. Hugo understood in an instant. In fact, everyone knows that there is still half an hour before the press conference. What made Hugo appear-if Hugo is an actor, he can continue to avoid seeing him, but he is a producer and needs to come out to maintain order. This can be regarded as revenge by the uncrowned kings for a little trick on Hugo.
Looking at Barry Meyer who was standing at the scene "helping the abuser", Hugo could only laugh helplessly, then walked onto the stage, took the microphone and said, "Why don't I know that Halloween is coming to summer in advance? "" One sentence made all the reporters at the scene laugh and looked triumphant, "Since everyone is so looking forward to our crew, then I can also look forward to your front page headlines tomorrow, right?" The front page headlines are almost from the teeth. Squeezed out of the seam.
In a word, the noise on the scene came to an abrupt end. Sure enough, Hugo is not easy to mess with.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Hugo continued to move forward, whispering and communicating with Curtis about the press conference and today's shooting plan. The two producers are bound to be extremely busy today on the first day of the boot. Russell and Heath followed Hugo closely. Even if they couldn't get in a word, they still couldn't restrain the throbbing in their hearts.
