Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 570 Meryl (seeking subscription, tickets)

When David Frankl signed a director contract with Firefly Pictures, the "Prada" project was finally able to move forward quickly.

And the casting aspect has also confirmed the candidates for the part allocation.

Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, and the catwalk models in the film that are very good in the original version. Although there are few scenes, they are also cooperated by Victoria's Secret and Giselle is invited. Bundchen, Heidi Krum and others add value to the movie.

In addition to these, as well as the packaging services provided by caa, the remaining small roles that have not been selected are still hot.

After all, being able to appear in movies is what many actors who have not yet made their debut, even if they are only supporting roles.

Therefore, there is a lot of work every day for auditions.

What's even more outrageous is that the movie requires twin children, and then hundreds of resume applications have been received. Many outsiders have come to participate with their children.

It has to be said that Hollywood’s attraction is great. It is already considered the place where overnight fame occurs most frequently and is a faithful portrayal of the "American Dream."

The competition between child stars is no less than that of actors of other levels.

For a time, Firefly Pictures may become a kindergarten.

There are more and more candidates from Australia, Britain and France.

Of course, this is something director David needs to worry about.

Sometimes, auditioning is also very tormenting. Although I can enjoy the right to screen the actors and have made a word, but sitting at the audition table continuously and repeatedly asking, it is unavoidable to be very tired.

Especially child actors are one of the most uncontrollable factors in Hollywood. In case something goes wrong when it comes to filming, you will not dare to scold or beat, and threats are useless. It will also attract surveillance from children’s organizations. , It can be said that the decision is prudent, and you must not pick in a pair of shy personality, it is more troublesome if you can't let go, and you will cry when looking at the camera.

In short, the nuisances have been disturbing.

However, these small roles don't need Lyman to check them, and they can be all over to David.

What he needs to do now is to talk to Meryl Streep, listen to her thoughts, and if she doesn't agree to play, he will immediately continue to audition for the role.

"Prada" does not seem to be very difficult to film, but it does not mean that the actors' performance is easy to pass.

Generally speaking, in the workplace, Miranda is the superior boss, and the image and temperament must meet the standard, otherwise it will not reflect the growth of Andy, a newcomer in the workplace.

And the role of this role is heavy. The standard of personality is over 50 years old, a powerful actress with a strong aura and able to hold down the template of a superwoman.

Judging by this standard, Meryl, an Oscar nail home, is undoubtedly very consistent.

......

Meryl was born in 1949 and graduated from Yale University.

When she learned about the "Prada" project, she was not very excited, because she had a good vision for the selection of the film. At a glance, she could see that the story did not have much potential to tap, and naturally she would not be favored by the various award juries.

But because of the lack of schedule recently and the projects that Lehman, the fast-rising director, affirmed, she hesitantly contacted the management of Firefly Pictures, hoping to talk face to face.

This morning, the reception room of Firefly Pictures.

Lehman officially met Meryl for the first time.

As one of the most qualified actresses in Hollywood, although Meryl has entered middle age, she still has the beauty, because she does not rely on her face to eat, and unlike most famous actresses, once she has passed the golden age, It quickly disappeared from the circle.

However, although Oscar admired her performance and won numerous awards, Meryl's pay was still not high.

Like many classic screen images portrayed by the other party, Meryl is very confident and calm. She always feels more comfortable when talking.

After talking briefly, Meryl also directly asked about the film "Prada", "Lyman, I have read the script carefully, but I don't know what this role can bring me?"

"Attention. Another style of you in the eyes of fans and audiences can continue a certain sense of passerby and make your actor career better." After a little consideration, Lehman said: "Prada is nothing very There are works with in-depth thinking, but its advantage is that there are no important male characters to grab the show, you can play as much as you want."

"Freshness?" Meryl wondered.

"Yes, it's hard for the new generation of viewers to notice you. Have you noticed it? It's an age gap... Sorry, I didn't mean that."

"It's okay, people will always get old." Meryl continued: "You mean the role of Miranda can build a sense of familiarity in the eyes of the new generation of audiences."

"Well, this is passerby."

"Well, I already understand." Following Lyman's analysis, Meryl seemed to feel that this work was not incapable of helping her actor career, but out of caution, she finally asked: "Do you think the audience Would you be very interested in such a movie?"

"This is the director's business. I just want to say that this movie is to capture the female market, so the main characters are women, and the topics around are also fashionable dresses that women are interested in, and many people will meet Some workplace frustrations. And Miranda is a workaholic and fashion queen who pursues perfection, is delicate, mean-speaking, and demanding to be daunting. She is very different and challenging, isn’t she?"

Meryl has read the script and naturally knows what role she will play.

Looking at the past from here, it seems that this type of image creation has not been performed by herself. She has played many tough female images, but it is really the first time she has worked with the editor of a famous magazine at the forefront of fashion.

Not to mention, although Meryl's achievements in awards are exceptionally high, the box office of the participating works can only be described as mediocre.

Losses are common occurrences, and there is no box office that has exceeded 200 million.

In the capital's Hollywood, the commercial performance is really related to the starring offer.

Meryl Streep's current salary is obviously not much, and it is definitely lower than that of the female lead.

But she has acting skills and can add a lot to the film's conflict of roles. Such a powerful actor joining "Prada" is definitely something that Lehman is very happy.This is why he is willing to meet and chat.

Now, seeing Meryl being persuaded, Lehman is also on the train while it is hot: "Ms. Streep, if you can participate, the entire crew is welcome, and Firefly Pictures is willing to pay 5.5 million US dollars in remuneration."

5.5 million?

This is a very favorable condition.

After all, Meryl herself sometimes needs to make cameo appearances at zero pay. In Hollywood, at the same level, male actors are one grade higher than actresses, and commercial traffic is also one grade higher than their strength.
