"I think it's time for you to return to the mainstream." Mary Catherine said with a serious face.

"Mainstream? Isn't Oscars mainstream? Mary!" Scott Johnson asked with a smile.

"You have too deep obsession with Oscars. Do you know that many A-level productions used to consider you first, but now? Since last year, you have only received invitations to 3 A-level productions. I don't object to your pursuit of Oscars, but if you continue, you will have nothing!" said Mary Catherine.

Scott Johnson frowned and said, "It's not that serious, right?"

Mary Catherine shook her head and said, "Scott, you have to know what makes you a big star, a commercial movie, and an ordinary movie fan. It is because of their support that you become Scott Johnson today. And your previous filming of literary and artistic movies has caused many fans to be disgusted, especially the self-destructed image, which has made many movies confused you."

"Scott, you have to understand that Hollywood has never lacked actors, there is no shortage of actors who want to replace you and can replace you! All they lack is an opportunity, and with such opportunities, you let go too many." Mary Catherine continued.

"If you take on this movie "Sickness", then you need to gain weight, lose weight, and shave your hair. This movie is a literary movie and it is impossible to have too much market potential. If you can win an Oscar with this movie, then there is no problem, but do you think you can do it? But if you can't get an Oscar, then do you know what this means? It means that you will be completely abandoned by mainstream movies! Because they will have better choices!" Mary Catherine said sincerely.

Although Scott Johnson is fascinated by Oscars and cannot extricate himself from awards, it does not mean that he is a fool.

"Okay, Mary, then do you think I should take on this movie "Mad Max Furious Road"? I don't think it's a good choice. You have to know that the director of this movie is from China! And this movie "Mad Max Furious Road" is full of our Western culture. Do you think a Chinese director can make such a movie?" Scott Johnson asked.

Mary Catherine nodded and said, "Yes, I think he can! I have checked Wang's information, but he has never failed. Although this is his first time directing a Hollywood movie, in fact, he has written several Hollywood movie scripts earlier, and has achieved great success. This shows that he is not as he imagined. He does not understand Hollywood or the North American market. On the contrary, he is better than many Hollywood movie directors and screenwriters!"

"But in this "Mad Max Furious Road", don't you think the heroine's role is more prominent, and it is very likely to suppress the male lead's presence?" Scott Johnson is not an easy person, and immediately pointed out that the heroine of "Mad Max Furious Road" highlighted this more.

Mary Catherine nodded and said, "No, but Scott, can you deny that if this movie is well made, it will definitely be a very, very special movie. And this movie is indeed the characteristics of the heroine, which makes this character very likely to suppress the presence of the hero, but have you always wanted to prove your acting skills? I believe that as long as you perform well enough, this will not be a problem. On the contrary, because of the heroine's outstanding performance, if the hero can be equally outstanding, will anyone deny your acting skills then?"

"Ok, I need to think about it!" Scott Johnson was a little moved.

"Sickness" may allow him to get a nomination, but it is difficult to win an award.

Or almost impossible!

And Mary Catherine actually understood what she said. This can be seen from the reduction in his endorsement contracts. He has left the mainstream film industry for too long!

......

Audition scene of "Mad Max Furious Road".

Wang Yifan is quite satisfied with Scott's performance. Moreover, although his popularity has declined in the past two years, he is still a top star in Hollywood.

"Wang, I have a little doubt. I have read the script. Don't you think the scenes between the male and female protagonists in this video are somewhat unbalanced?"

As a top star, Scott Johnson can naturally come up with his own ideas about the movie.

Most of the time, top stars are rarely willing to match people.

Especially for the main characters like the male protagonist, they must be the core characters, otherwise they would not accept them at all.

There is obviously such a problem in "Mad Max Furious Road".

Wang Yifan knew that if he wanted to choose top stars and borrow their popularity to spread the natural gap between the male and female protagonists due to the plot and character, he had to convince the other party.

Otherwise, even if he finds other top male actors, he will face such doubts.

"Everything in the film must be organized and logical. First of all, we have determined that the film's McGoffin - McGoffin is a film term, which refers to the object, character, or target used in the film to promote the plot - must be an individual."

Scott Johnson nodded.

Wang Yifan continued to say slowly, "Then the next question is, who is this person? In the story, there are a group of people and wives who are struggling in the toxic wasteland. They want to create healthy offspring instead of becoming dictatorial fertility machines. Who will be their leader?"

Scott Johnson couldn't help but frown.

Because Wang Yifan's meaning is very obvious, this person obviously cannot be the male protagonist.

Sure enough, Wang Yifan continued: "It is obviously impossible to be a man, because men can only fight against them and I can't tell them clearly. So we have to find the strong and powerful warrior who can guard them, so this character must be Ferosa. Then she led the team to the Oasis, her childhood homeland, which was a matriarchal society, and they were survivors. So the whole story is natural, smooth, and organized.

The video I imagined would be played in a series of speeding events. The audience learned about the characters' background, skills, personality, changes in the psychological world and emotional experience of the characters, the progress of their enemies, friendships, closeness and alienation, and even the continuous making of crucial decisions by the two protagonists, are all produced along with the entire action process. All of this is done through actions.

The role of the male lead Max is the key to promoting the action scenes!

Of course, the heroine will definitely be very outstanding because of her special positioning of the role. I don’t deny this. Do you know why I chose a famous actor to play the hero?
