Chapter 435 The advantage
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
After the simple consultation, Aziva Gossman took the lead in leaving the audition room, and David Heyman followed him. The two seemed to have some discussions. After turning around the corner of the corridor, they entered the same office one after another.
In the audition room, Matthew didn't even look at Francis Lawrence, and walked straight to the door. He was about to open the door and go out, Francis Lawrence happened to come over.
"Sorry, Matthew." Francis Lawrence said sorry, with no apology on his face, but instead had a hint of undetectable pride, "It was decided that the audition result was still acting."
Matthew stopped, withdrew his hand, turned to look at Francis Lawrence, imitating Helen Hermann's appearance and tone, and said lightly, "Is that true?"
This indifferent look made Francis Lawrence a little confused, but he still said, "Of course."
Matthew stood behind the door and looked at Francis Lawrence calmly. Francis Lawrence frowned slightly and said, "Whether you admit it or not, the situation is very obvious."
"What's obvious?" Matthew asked deliberately.
Francis Lawrence frowned even more. Matthew Horner was obviously stubborn, and all these celebrity actors were trying to save face.
He took a deep breath, relaxed, and said, "Matthew, you are a big star, but the decision of this role is not in my hands, nor in your hands. The person who really decides the role is Aziva Gosman."
Matthew responded with a rare sentence, "It's true."
Francis Lawrence couldn't help laughing, "Didn't you see Aziva Gossman's attitude just now?"
"I saw it." Matthew shrugged and said casually, "The audition for Anne's role is not over yet. There is an audition for an actress tomorrow. It's too early to say this."
Hearing these words, Francis Lawrence couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Does these make sense, Matthew? I believe you know as well as me. Tomorrow's audition is a formality, and the candidate for this role will definitely be between Paula Patton and Alexandra Dadario."
"No!" He quickly changed his words, "The character Anne already belongs to Paula Patton."
"Even if Paula Patton gets this role," Matthew asked directly, "What can you do?"
A hint of disdain appeared on his face, "You don't really think that fighting for such a role means you can get more power than me in the crew, right?"
Francis Lawrence laughed, "Of course not."
He walked past Matthew, opened the door of the audition room, and walked out first.
The crew is not only the director, he and the male lead Matthew, but also hundreds of members. The audition for this role will soon spread throughout the crew. What will others think then? Who will these people think is more authoritative in the crew?
True authority is established through such practical operations, rather than being able to obtain it by placing a co-producer.
In this way, he can not only avenge the male lead's defeat in the competition, but also give his girlfriend an explanation, and also help the black actors he is thinking of. It's simply too cost-effective.
The most important thing is that it is easier to be able to beat a popular first-line star in the crew than to have sex with three female black women at the same time!
After walking out of the audition room, looking at the back of Francis Lawrence leaving, Matthew sighed softly. According to normal circumstances, Paula Patton, recommended by Francis Lawrence, will definitely defeat Alexandra Dadario and get this supporting actress.
When he was auditioning, he felt very familiar when he saw Paula Patton. Later, after careful recollection, he remembered that he had seen this black actress in two films, one was the fourth or fifth part of Tom Cruise's "Mission: Impossible", in which the black female played Ethan Hant's partner, and the other was the game adaptation of the movie "Warcraft", which seemed to play a female orc.
Although he thought Paula Patton was extremely ugly and did not meet his aesthetic at all, Paula Patton seemed to be the female beauty in the film "Mission: Impossible". I think it must be the black pearl in the eyes of some heavy-tasting people.
In this way, Alexandra Dadario's appearance and figure would not have much advantage. In addition, his already average acting skills would be strange to be able to beat Paula Patton.
However, what determines the role is not limited to auditions.
When Matthew first recommended Alexandra Dadario to the crew, he considered the various actual needs of the crew's shooting and the advantages and disadvantages of Alexandra Dadario themselves. Of course, his consideration was his consideration.
Moreover, he communicated with Alexandra Dadario and Amanda, and they also called New York, and the advantages could be completely transformed into actual operations.
Alexandra Dadario has filmed two films before, and it is not a problem to play simple vase roles. As long as her advantages can actually help the crew, Francis Lawrence and Paula Patton have a more than 80% chance of being kicked out by Aziva Gossman.
If the crew chose Paula Patton, they just chose an actor, and what Alexandra Dadario could bring is far more than just an actor.
After Francis Lawrence's figure completely disappeared in the corridor, Matthew moved his steps and walked forward. He soon came to the front of an office and knocked on the door gently.
"Please come in."
Hearing Aziva Gosman's voice came from the office, Matthew pushed open the door and walked in.
"Matthew." Aziva Gosman asked curiously when he saw Matthew, "Is there anything wrong?"
After pulling a chair and sitting down, Matthew greeted David Heyman first, and then said to Aziva Gossman, "I have some ideas about the candidate for the supporting actress Anne."
Aziva Gosman put down what he had at hand for the time being and said, "About Alexandra Dadario?"
Matthew nodded and was about to speak, Aziva Gosman raised his hand to stop him, and said, "Matthew, we have a very pleasant cooperation between us. You are also the most critical member of the crew. As long as the crew and the film allow, we have always attached great importance to the opinions you put forward."
"Yes." Matthew did not deny this.
Although the two sides had arguing about wits and courage in the previous negotiations, it was a normal negotiation process and after the formal contract was signed, it would not affect the cooperation between the two players.
Aziva Gosman obviously didn't finish his words, paused for a moment, and said, "But in the selection of supporting actress Anne, the difference between Alexandra Dadario you recommended is very obvious compared to Paula Patton."
The two sides will have to work together next. Matthew is the box office star who is so popular that he is currently. Even as a film producer, he must show appropriate respect and slow down as much as possible, saying, "Anne, the supporting actress, is the most important role in addition to the male lead. In the case of a more suitable actor, the crew cannot take unnecessary risks."
Matthew nodded, "I understand."
Hearing this, Aziva Gosman smiled and glanced at Matthew, whom he knew, that as long as he reached a cooperation agreement, he would never be a trouble for the crew.
"Aziva." Matthew suddenly changed the topic, "Are the scenes planned to be shot in New York?"
"Yeah." Aziva Gosman nodded, "Real scene shooting can create a sense of desolation, loneliness and reality in a city and a person."
Matthew continued his words and asked, "It's very difficult to shoot a real-life city like New York."
Aziva Gosman shook his head and sighed, "It's not just difficult." He said, "There are two scenes, on the Brooklyn Bridge and Washington Square. I want to clear the venue and shoot, and there is too much work to do. I have already flown to New York and have talked to the New York City Hall twice, but I still haven't obtained a filming permit. I'm planning to bring Warner Bros. people to go again next month, but..."
Speaking of this, he shook his head again. Last time, Warner Bros. was accompanied by others, but he still didn't negotiate with the New York City Hall.
If filming videos in an international metropolis like New York is just a small-scale outdoor scene and only a small section of road surfaces or buildings is blocked, it is not difficult to obtain a shooting permit. However, like those two scenes, blocking the entire Brooklyn and Washington Square will inevitably bring a series of chain reactions, and the New York City Hall has to be cautious.
Compared to these, the choice of the supporting actress in this supporting actress is simply a small problem.
Matthew kept observing Aziva Gosman quietly, and suddenly turned the topic back, "Aziva, there is a situation about Alexandra Dadario, you may not understand."
"Oh?" Aziva Gosman looked at Matthew in confusion.
Even David Heyman pricked up his ears and looked over.
"Alexandra Dadario's father is now the federal prosecutor in New York." Matthew no longer circled and said directly. "It is said that he may also become the head of the anti-terrorism department in the New York area in the second half of the year. He has a significant influence in New York politics."
How could Aziva Gossmann not understand what Matthew meant, "You mean he can help in the New York location drama?"
Matthew didn't answer, just nodded slightly, and then said, "This kind of thing works privately."
Aziva Gosman immediately said, "I understand."
David Heyman later said, "This matter will not leave this office."
Matthew stood up, "David, Aziva, then I will say goodbye first."
