Lanly paused and laughed dumbfounded, and Andy's emotional ups and downs were explained just now. Originally he was going to go out and join the film festival carnival, but now he is not in a hurry, he should at least show enough respect to Andy. So he sat down on the sofa diagonally opposite, found a comfortable position, and said politely, "Listen with good ears."

"One is an action movie." Andy didn't seem to have any changes on the surface, still the smiley expression, but the slightly relaxed voice can still feel his happiness, "'Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion' series, you Have you heard of it?"

Without any preparation, Andy threw a bomb on Lan Li's face, and countless question marks appeared in his brain instantly, "speed and excitement/emotion"? Did he hear it right? Why would this adrenaline bursting and hormonal action movie find him? Not to mention, why did Andy choose such a work, why is the crew interested in "speed and excitement/emotion"? Neither the "Pacific War" nor the "Buried Alive" showed his potential as an action actor, and there is no clue connecting him to the "speed and excitement/emotion" crew.

Lan Li suddenly felt excited.

"They are looking for a villain, or more accurately, an actor who plays a role of justice." Andy didn't have any nonsense, and went straight to the subject. "A FBI agent, they hope to be a wise and A strong opponent with both physical strength can not only form a physical confrontation with Van Diesel, but also form a brain confrontation with Paul Walker and others, and truly bring the theme of fighting wits to the extreme. I asked the producer Niu El-H-Moritz recommended you. After watching'Buried alive', they thought they could arrange an audition."

A witty FBI agent? On behalf of the justice side, the group of criminals who chase "speed and excitement/emotion", but obviously from the standpoint of the movie, the pursuit will eventually fail. However, viewers who have really watched the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" series will know that this will be a charming character, because Paul Walker played Brian was originally a policeman/inspector and was hunting down Van Diesel. In the process of playing Dominic, a revolutionary/fate friendship is formed that fights side by side, and finally a strong friendship between birth and death is established.

"Is this the first work in the series?" There are seven works in this series, and when he is reborn, the production of the eighth part is coming to an end. Lan Li doesn't remember the timeline of the screening clearly. , Easy to confuse.

"Five." Andy replied.

The most classic "speed and excitement/emotion 5". Although the highest box office of the series is the seventh, in fact, the absolute classic recognized by film critics and most fans is the fifth.

Not only because this movie has achieved a comprehensive upgrade, from drag racing scenes to confrontation scenes, to climax/tide decisive battles, it has truly entered the blockbuster level; it is also because the plot setting, rhythm control and story frame of this movie are very outstanding. The essence of the popcorn commercial blockbuster was brought into full play. The scene where the two protagonists drove the bank gold cabinet and dragged on the road was absolutely amazing.

It is no exaggeration to say that the fifth part has raised the whole series to a height, and then ranks among the most popular series of Universal Pictures.

It is also worth mentioning that the fifth is the first appearance of "Big Rock" Dawn Johnson. The FBI agent Hobbs played by him won a round of applause. This wrestler-born actor floats in Hollywood. After sinking for nearly ten years, he finally ushered in the spring of his career with this movie, and has since risen to prosperity. Later, he became the third indispensable protagonist in the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" series.

Could it be that the role that Andy has asked him to audition for is Hobbes played by Dawn Johnson?

Imagine in my mind, replacing Dawn's scenes with himself, Lan Li feels that the style of the whole movie has changed. In fact, in the entire Hollywood, there are almost no actors who can match Dawn in terms of body. Even Van Diesel, standing in front of Dawn, looks like a butterscot.

"You just said that they hope this is a courageous and strategic role?" Lan Li realized that maybe in the beginning, they had different roles for Hobbes, but they didn't find a suitable actor later. , After replacing it with Dawn, the settings were modified accordingly. This is not uncommon in Hollywood.

Andy nodded, and the smile that had been hanging around his mouth suddenly rose, "I don't want you to practice like Van Diesel." This also made Lan Li couldn't help but smile. "I think you can create a character similar to Indiana Jones, inject a completely different temperament into the whole movie, and really make the movie even better. Don't worry, I don’t want you to appear in the'Transformers' right now. intend."

"Ha." Lan Li really laughed, "Now there are countless actors who want to appear in'Transformers'."

Megan Fox and Michael Bay completely tore their faces, the war of words between the two sides in the media can be described as lively and extraordinary. Now, the "Transformers 3" that is in preparation has announced the replacement of the heroine, and the whole Hollywood is boiling.

Andy asked with a smile, "Then do you need me to fight for you? Squeeze out Shia LaBeouf?"

Lan Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "What do you think of Bumblebee?"

Both of them chuckled lightly. "So, what do you think?" Andy pulled back the topic again, "Personally, I think this is a good opportunity. Although it is only a supporting role, but in this way, there is not much box office pressure. But he is able to act in a commercial blockbuster, and is a special role worth pondering, just like Jason Byrne. The market for the fourth part of the previous series has performed well, and Universal Pictures is also quite optimistic about the prospects for the fifth part. As an opportunity for you to test the waters of commercial films, it's just like Max Mickelson played the villain of 007."

starring in commercial movies is also particular. A vase actor like Megan Fox’s focus is to exist as a beautiful landscape, and the selection of works also needs to show her advantages; an old drama like Helen Mirren can break the image but at the same time give the movie a special taste. Challenges such as "Red Flame Battlefield" and "Monster University" are more suitable.

For Andy, he certainly hopes that Renly can show his talents in commercial movies, just like Tom Hanks, who must grasp both the box office and the awards, and both hands must be hard. But now that Lan Li is still in the initial stage of his career, he doesn't want to be too hasty. The selection of commercial works must be more cautious.

As he said, this is a good role and a good opportunity.

Lan Li’s thinking angle is different. He likes the series of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion". Drag racing, fighting, and explosions are just a shell, a panacea for adrenaline bursting, but the series of works really make It was the brotherly loyalty that moved people. Watching Brian and Dominic go from hostility to comrades-in-arms, they truly became a family, and the friendship throughout the whole period brought a touch of touch. This is what distinguishes this series of works from other series of movies.

Of course, Lan Li also has concerns. Just like the original "Thor" script, the "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" series works as a whole. Once they are played, they will be bound to the characters and played for a long time. This will challenge different roles for Lan Li in the future. , And even the schedule arrangements, will have a far-reaching impact.

Fortunately, the character depicted by Andy, not to mention whether it is Hobbes that Renly guessed, is at least not as simple and crude as Thor Thor. If you can give the villain played by Javier Baden some room to play like "007: Killing in the Sky", or create a role similar to Indiana Jones as Andy said, then the performance will be It suddenly became interesting.

However, all of this is just Lan Li's wild thoughts and passionateness. He hasn't even auditioned yet, let alone acting. If he follows the historical trajectory of the previous life, he has no chance at all, and no one can compete with Dawn Johnson for the role of Hobbes.

Thoughts turned in his mind twice, Lan Li looked at Andy, "When?"

Different from "Thor", Lan Li is willing to give "speed and excitement/emotion" a chance. At least you can sit down and talk face to face~www.novelhall.com~ While the other party auditioned him, he could also learn about the character's setting and framework. He believes that since the other party is willing to arrange an audition, it means that the other party also intends to make this FBI agent into a different role.

Andy's eyebrows are open, he likes this answer. "I will contact them later, if nothing happens, it should be tomorrow."

"Are they also in Telluride now?" Lanly was a little surprised. He thought that the production team of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" was not interested in film festivals like Telluride at all, so naturally he would not attend.

Andy didn't say anything. It was because Neil was in Telluride that he was able to get on the line so smoothly-the feedback from "Buried Alive" in Telluride this time is really good, "Don't you know? The Telluride Film Festival is the largest gathering of rich people in the United States. Those rich people always hope to use such a platform to prove their artistic taste and knowledge."

This is the answer that Lan Li did not expect, he was taken aback, and then he burst into laughter. Think about it carefully, this is also reasonable. Telluride is not as flashy as Cannes, nor does it directly put the transaction on the table like Toronto. He has always maintained his own artistic taste, but he has received movie hobbies. Wide welcome. Just like Stanley Kubrick, whether you understand it or not, borrowing the name to inlay gold is very useful.

"The pre-shooting of their crew has actually begun. The role was originally set for Dawn Johnson to play, but Dawn’s agent paid too much for the film, which caused dissatisfaction with the crew, and is now negotiating. At the same time , And made a second-hand preparation." Andy's sudden revelation, with a meaningful taste.
