Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 185 Determine the lineup (seeking subscription recommendation)

Time came the next day, in a coffee shop in Los Angeles.

Jason Statham, wearing a gray short shirt, put his legs together, his eyes kept looking out, and his right hand kept stirring the coffee in front of him, looking a little impatient.

But without a hat, he is still so conspicuous in the huge coffee shop.

As soon as Lyman entered, he saw him.

Jason Statham, who has been paying attention to the situation at the door, without exception, knew that Lehman had arrived, and quickly got up to say hello.

"Hi, Director Lyman."

"Wait for a long time." Lehman said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road just now, and it was delayed for a while."

"No, no. I just arrived." Jason Statham smiled politely, and led Lehman to his seat.

The two sat facing each other in the corner of the window on the southwest side.The waiter brought another cup of coffee and put it in front of Lyman.

Jason Statham smiled kindly again, not to mention, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, it really looked like that.

In terms of acting skills, there may still be no small challenges, but the character temperament, Jason Statham's surface image is at least suitable.

Lehman calmly finished talking about the play appointment. For a while, although Jason Statham felt a little lost in his heart, he still had the desire to participate.Emotions are also considered excited.

The reason for the slight loss was naturally that after listening to Lehman's new play, he realized that he was not the director, but the newcomer Wen Ziren.

However, director Wen Ziren, he has been in contact, and this film is produced by Lehman, his interest is still relatively large.

"If you can, let your agent come to Paramount tomorrow, okay."

"Then say so."

"I have something else."

"Bye."

In other words, Mann Studio also needs an actor in action and martial arts to take on the front.

Before that, Heath Ledger was undoubtedly the number one co-op ace. Nicholas Cage was also good at acting. Tom Cruise? The relationship with each other is not bad, but it seems that there is no such thing as an action movie. If you take the shot, you can't expect Cage to play handsome and cool. If you really give him such a role, I guess he will not be willing.

If Jason Statham can be popular, from image to temperament to figure, it is fully in line with the development direction of the screen fierce guy.Very suitable, isn't it.

After meeting with Lehman, Jason Statham made a direct call to confirm the news of the invitation with his agent. On the other side, Wen Ziren, Ray Navor and others were not idle. At the same time, It is also intensively preparing for the next filming work.

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention. In addition to being the screenwriter of the film, Ray Navor is also one of the assistant and part-time production managers of "Chain Saw". After getting the opportunity, Wen Ziren did not forget himself. Friends of, intend to help him get closer to the producer or director and learn about the actual crew experience.

It is also pretty good, at least it can be seen that it is loyal, not forgetting the original, and the character is undoubtedly guaranteed.

When it comes to projects like "Chain Saw", although the investment is not high, there are a lot of things and work. After Lehman initially settled Jason Statham, he began to busy looking for other major actors.

The invitation to Hugo Weiwen, it went well.

This person is the kind of typical play celebrities who are not popular.

The acting skills are good, but the pay is not high. After all, capitalists value the audience market more. No matter how good your performance is, most of the audience does not have this clearer concept in their minds.I can’t remember people, I don’t have fan appeal, that’s all.

But this kind of old drama is popular in the circle, and there is no worry about filming.

It's like a very sophisticated instrument that needs such a stable existence. It may seem inconspicuous, but it can provide a certain guarantee for performance.

After Hugo Weiwen received the call, it was very happy.

Lehman is more happy, anyway, the budget is quite sufficient, although the doctor Lawrence he will play is not the one with the most, the reward is quite sincere.

He didn't get any ink marks and signed the contract immediately.

Then, the jigsaw is left.

......

"Hi."

The phone was connected, and Lyman, who was lying on the sofa, immediately sat upright and greeted: "Simmons, how are you doing?"

"It's okay, what do you want me to do." In the words, you can hear his ease.After all, he has no shortage of filming.

"Yes, I have a role in this drama. Do you have a schedule?"

"I'm going to be in Warner's movie next month, look..."

"There are not many roles in the film. It is estimated that you will be able to film your part in one or two weeks. How about it?"

"Really, that's fine, I'll come over tomorrow."

If you can invite this kind of old drama bones to participate in a role like this kind of not much drama, it is completely selling Lehman's face.

Maybe it's the good results of "Bad Guy", or maybe Simmons has a good impression of him.

Anyway, when discussing the remuneration the next day, this person directly asked for a friendly price.300,000 US dollars.

After all, after reading the specific script, it is obvious that the jigsaw is not a character with a lot of frontal shots.

It's not an exaggeration to say that it was soy sauce in the audience, and the final reversal was more shots.

Because of the nature of a cameo, JK Simmons also thought very well, so let's just sell it personally.

Lehman doesn't lack the pay, but he does have sincerity, and he can't do it.

It's a personal debt.

In Paramount's reception room.

Lehman shook hands with him very sincerely, as an expression of his gratitude.

The contract was also signed, and Simmons chuckled softly: "Well, when will this movie start?"

"It's just a few days now, don't worry, it will definitely give priority to filming your side of the scene, it will not delay your itinerary." Lehman assured.

"Well, let me know when it's time." Simmons sat in his seat after thinking for a while, and then smiled: "Don't take too much care of me. If it is too rush to shoot, it will not be beautiful. If there is a conflict with Warner, I Just discuss it over there."

Lyman pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

He is afraid of others' sudden release of kindness.

The first is Heath Ledger. He traveled a long way to Cannes, France, and took the "Buried Alive" with a very low pay.

To be honest, the crew was really poor at that time, everything had to be calculated carefully, people never complained, the food was not good, and they had to endure the high temperature, lying in a small wooden coffin and filming closed scenes.

As for Lyman, it was all in the eyes.

And Cage, when "The Wind Whisperer" failed, he was still able to take over the same type of "Furious". He also remembered this favor.

He doesn't know how to say anything, he always likes to use actions.

Therefore, when filming, always think of these people first.

Of course, these people are not bad either.

It can be seen that the cooperative relationship between the two parties can be maintained so well.

After all, the thing about human favors, sometimes passed, it passed, right?
