In the next two days, after communicating with a series of staff and Allianz fire representatives, the preliminary preparations for "Rise of the Apes" proceeded very quickly. Every day, suitable people behind the scenes joined the crew, and such a new film plan, especially It was a category A film co-produced by Firefly and Fox that spread quickly within Hollywood. Many agents directly took various resumes and photos, harassing the already determined producers on both sides, only seeking a chance to qualify for the audition.

This is normal. Firefly, Fox, blockbuster...Either of these elements are worthy of the actors' motivation to recommend themselves. After all, it is Hollywood consensus that Lehman's script is easy to succeed.

"We don't have to consider third-rate artists who have no impression of the audience. Although the focus of this movie is not on the male and female protagonists, their existence is familiar to the audience."

The casting director called cautiously, and Lehman drew a line on the basis of the meeting that night, "At least one or two representative works, some audiences, the performance foundation must be solid, otherwise the visual effects technology will steal the spotlight too much. , That is the real sense of existence is thin, if one is not good, the role will be out of balance."

"I will take care of it, boss." The opposite promised: "We have received a lot of resumes that meet the requirements, and they are recommended by various brokerage companies."

"Well, wait until the third round, I might go there."

The phone hung up. Several producers were in the conference room. The Fox guy reminded: "The art, props, costumes, and photography teams are all set up... Uh, Lyman, your favorite director is Who, in addition to the role of actors, is only one director team who is in charge of shooting the overall situation on the set.

"I have already selected someone, but I have to wait a week or two to join the group. It won't delay the start date."

Lehmann got up and walked to the door, "Hurry up and determine other matters."

After speaking, he drove to his studio.

"Hey, Clever, what's the matter?"

Pony Zha, is entering the production work, Eva, busy with preparations, picked up the phone.

When Lehman walked over, what she saw was a picture of her communicating with someone. Hearing a familiar name, he stopped and did not disturb.

"Yes, I'm currently preparing a script. Well, I don't usually care about casting."

"You are joking. I haven't acted for a long time. The most recent one is "Avatar", and I haven't shown my face."

"Want me to take care of the younger generation? Is she?"

"Okay, okay, I understand, if I have the opportunity, can I talk to him? It may not be possible, you know, it is always a matter of deciding who to play, he also has his considerations."

"Well, I will reply to news. Bye..."

"That's it again." Eva put her phone aside casually, took the notepad and wrote a list of names.

Seeing this scene, Lyman grinned and hurriedly greeted, "Baby, did something happen?"

"Huh?" Eva turned around and said in surprise: "Have you heard everything?"

"That's it, isn't it." Lehman didn't deny it.

"Yes." Eva couldn't help but vomit. "The calls came to me. After knowing that I wouldn't be able to act, their interest was too high. Unexpectedly, I also became a means for others to build relationships."

In addition to laughing at herself, an inexplicable little joy appeared in her heart.

"who is it?"

"Léa Saidou. Do you know?"

"The vice chairman of EMI personally recommended it, how could I not understand." Lehman recalled: "It seems that she is the granddaughter of the last EMI chairman. A high-profile French rookie actor."

"Well, she just finished the filming of "Mission Impossible 4" a few days ago, and she is still in Hollywood."

Eva opened a document to be processed, and while dealing with the work, she said: "Do you think she is suitable? I mean, the undecided heroine of "Rise of the Apes".

"Under the right circumstances, I'm still happy to push my own person." Lehman didn't take it seriously. "I will say hello and let her go directly to the final round of auditions. After all, I also have to respect the guide. s Choice."

"Is he here to direct this play? That's quite appropriate."

In this life, Zach Schneider’s qualifications and achievements are placed there. It is far more popular than the previous life, mainly because he has fewer bad problems and is easy to listen to opinions. He was born in art, and his composition and color are always comfortable. Viewing experience.

In other words, the more rigorous and clear the script, the larger the stage suitable for him to play. This guy is not good at conceiving the story of his own.

Of course, in Eva's view, it was Lehman taking care of her own person. She knew too well, as long as she had an appetite for him, whenever she had the opportunity, she would always consider the guys who had dealt with.

"This project is no longer part of our family. I have to have actual control over the crew. Otherwise, if Fox drags down, what was originally a win-win will also lose." Lehman does not hesitate to distrust the Fox production team. , Anyway, there is no one of them next to them, "The director and the producer are our people, so it's hard to deviate."

"By the way, Ya An hasn't come yet?"

Ya'an is a member of the Firefly team who built the "Rise of the Apes".

"He went to find someone to communicate on location."

I stayed in the studio until the evening, and the staff members stopped working one after another to get off work, but the people from Fox came to show their hospitality again.

"Okay, okay, since you think they are so good, are you afraid that you won't make it through the first two rounds of primaries? If you have this time, it is better to stay close to the role, the chance should always be bigger than others."

When he got home, Lehman went into the study to read the script and see if there were any good ideas. In the end, the phone kept ringing again.

Picking it up, it was directed by Jason Reitman.

"Do you also recommend an actor?"

"Uh, everyone is in the circle, how can there be no human relations." Jason Reitman hesitated, "If you already have someone selected, I would have an accurate answer."

"Everything is difficult to say now. I don't plan to guide this film. I have to respect Zach's ideas about the role. He has a good eye for someone, and it must be a plus."

At this point, the two chatted again about the "Otaku Jeff" that had been turned on, and the call ended.

Lyman shook his head slightly, feeling a little tired.

I was planning to wash and rest after reading the script in my hand. It was another phone call.

"Hello, spinning top..." is a spinning spinning top that opened in Japan.

"You are looking for someone too? What? The heroine auditioned? Stop making trouble. You can take a good shot of "Godzilla" and worry about what it does to you."

"I know it's favor."

"Alright, let's give an audition opportunity."

"By the way, how is your place?"

"Toho is very cooperative. It's good to be very cooperative..."
