Chapter 300: Rubber man

In the dressing room of the Warner Studios office building, Christian Bale put on an old white shirt and waited for the audition to begin.
After the makeup artist left, only him and his agent were left here.
Agent Patrick Whitesell was by the side and exhorted: "Chris, this is your first purely commercial role in the true sense. Don't underestimate commercial movies. You must go all out for auditions."
Christian Bale said calmly: "When did I not go all out?"
Patrick Whitesell was dumb. When it comes to professionalism, Christian Bale is definitely a leader in Hollywood.
He patted Bell on the shoulder and said, "I am most relieved of you."
Christian Bale let out a sigh of relief and suddenly asked: "I don't understand why you must persuade me to take up such a role."
"I studied the script carefully, and Ronan Anderson." Patrick Whitesell said: "From these two aspects, even if it is a pirate theme, "Pirates of the Caribbean" has a great chance of success."
Christian Bale looked at his agent and did not speak.
Patrick Whitesell continued: "Chris, you told me that you want to be a superstar, right."
"Yes." Christian Bale has no need to deny: "I have never changed this idea."
Patrick Whitesell turned behind Bell and said, "The movies you have received in the past are all literary and artistic movies. Have you discovered that the times have changed? Hollywood is no longer the Hollywood of the 70s and 80s. There is not enough. It’s hard to become a superstar because of its commercial appeal."
Christian Bale seems to be thinking.
Patrick Whitesell added: "Look at the actors who are now called superstars in Hollywood, Julia Roberts, Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks. There are also top-notch actors in the line. , Nicholas Cage, Will Smith, Kim Carey, Cameron Diaz, etc., could it be backed by excellent business results."
The knock on the door sounded, and the voice of the crew member came from outside: "Mr. Bell, please go to the audition room to audition."
"Here's here." Christian Bell stood up and said to Patrick Whitesell as he passed by the agent: "Don't worry, I'm not a literary person."
Patrick Whitesell couldn't help laughing.
He followed Christian Bale out of the dressing room. He had just turned to another corridor and couldn't help stopping. A Latina girl with an unusually hot body was walking over.
"Lauren?" Patrick Whitesell was a little surprised: "My dear, why are you here?"
"I happen to be working on Warner Building." Lauren Sanchez said with a smile: "Thinking that you said yesterday that you would accompany a client to audition, come here to take a look."
She glanced at Christian Bale, who was walking away, and asked, "It hasn't started yet."
Patrick Whitesell took her hand: "Let's wait here."
In the audition room, Ronan looked at Christian Bale, who was wearing the tattered clothes of the Middle World, and nodded in approval.
If you want a British accent, Bell has no shortage; if you want appearance, Bell also has it; besides acting, Bell is much better than the former fairy prince.
The most important point is that Bell is more manly than that.
To put it bluntly, a blacksmith who beats iron with a sledgehammer all day, how could he be a handsome man.
The most important thing is acting.
In "Pirates of the Caribbean", Will Turner's role is not less than Jack Sparrow, but in the movie he was forced to become a supporting actor, whose performance is not even as good as Elizabeth Swann.
On the one hand, in the role setting, Captain Jack Sparrow is more likely to shine; on the other hand, there is a gap in the actor's hard power.
Johnny Depp's acting skills are not the best in Hollywood, but his alternative style is particularly suitable for the role of Jack Sparrow.
In addition, even if Johnny Depp's acting skills are not top-notch, he still kills Orlando Bloom.
Although acting is a very subjective feeling, if the level gap is too large, it can still be clearly experienced.
No mention of the acting skills of the Elf Prince.
I remember that in the film "The Kingdom of Heaven" in the previous life, Orlando Bloom, the actor, was suppressed to death by Edward Norton, who had never shown his face in a mask. It was an inexplicable tragedy.
When the face of the elven prince was no longer handsome and gradually aged, he soon almost disappeared.
Perhaps this little blacksmith Will Turner will still live in the shadow of Captain Jack Sparrow, but Christian Bale should be able to impress people even more.
Ronan has more expectations for Christian Bale and has some ideas in his mind.
For example, let Christian Bale perform a special shape on the body.
This is the best rubber man in Hollywood, and it is commonplace to change fat to thin.
Christian Bale, in accordance with Ronan's request, used a standard English accent. After finishing a line, Ronan called off the short audition.
"Mr. Bell."
There was only one candidate for the audition, and Ronan didn't have to go around in circles, and said directly: "I think you are very suitable for this role."
Christian Bale looked serious and nodded slightly.
Ronan said: "Let's go ahead and remove your makeup first, we will talk later."
"Okay." Christian Bale didn't talk much, and quickly left the audition room.
Ronan looked at George Clint next to him and asked: "You have been in contact with Orlando Bloom, how do you feel about Bell than him?"
George Clint told the truth: "Orlando Bloom has what Christian Bale has, and what Orlando Bloom doesn't have is what Christian Bale has."
He thought for a while and added: "Compared to Orlando Bloom's ambiguous attitude, Bell is more interested in this role, and Christian Bell has been working hard in the independent film circle before, and the pay is not high. ."
Ronan nodded: "That's Christian Bale."
George Clint said at this time: "The invitation to Jeffrey Rush also responded. This Australian movie star is very interested in the role and the pay we offer."
Ronan said: "You are responsible for the negotiations with Jeffrey Rush, so that he can join the crew as soon as possible."
Compared to other actors, actors like Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, and Captain Barbossa who all play roles in the film must undergo a lot of professional swordsmanship and physical training before shooting. Determine it as soon as possible, and then join the crew for preliminary preparations.
This is common in Hollywood, and no actor will be absent for no reason.
If you want to play the sword beautifully, you can't rely solely on the stunt double, otherwise most of the action shots will not have the front close-up.
I can’t cut my head and paste it after the filming, it would really be a Hollywood joke.
An hour later, Ronan met Christian Bell and his agent Patrick Whitesell in his producer's office.
Behind the two of them, there was a Latin girl with an unusually figure.
This Latin woman in her thirties, the stalwartness of her chest, is straight up to Jessica Felton, who eats with technology.
Ronan felt that this woman was a bit familiar, and recalled carefully, it should not have been seen after coming to Los Angeles, but had seen relevant pictures on the Internet in his previous life.
But I can't remember the more specific ones.
Patrick Whitesell introduced: "This is my girlfriend Lauren Sanchez, a host and actor."
Ronan shook hands with Lauren Sanchez: "It's very nice to meet you, Miss Sanchez."
"Me too." Lauren Sanchez said with a smile.
After a simple greeting, Ronan returned to the topic: "I am very satisfied with the effect of this audition. If you have no objection, the role of Will Turner belongs to Mr. Bell."
Patrick Whitesell glanced at Bell, saw him nod slightly, and said: "It is a great honor to cooperate with Mr. Anderson and Shahai Entertainment."
He breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, this is also a top-produced No. 2 actor, and even no less than the No. 1 actor. Christian Bell has been in the independent film circle for ten years and finally set foot on the first line of production. Opportunity now.
Christian Bale didn't talk much, just said: "Thank you Mr. Anderson for giving me this opportunity."
Ronan nodded naturally.
As a producer and film company boss, unless you are a first-line star in the circle, you are in an absolute advantage.
Now Christian Bale is not a big star after starring in Master Wayne.
"I have two requests to tell me in advance." Ronan said directly: "Mr. Bell, after we sign the contract, you need to enter the crew immediately to participate in physical and sword training. In addition..."
He glanced at Christian Bell: "Your figure is a bit thin~EbookFREE.me~Patrick Whitesell said with a smile: "When Chris appeared in the last movie, he lost a lot of weight and is still in Recovery period. "
Ronan knows Christian Bale’s style and said:
You need to gain muscle and gain weight. You need to exercise a clear muscle contour, and the figure is more in line with the setting of the blacksmith.
Christian Bale said easily: "No problem."
He hasn't done it once or twice to change his body shape. He is very experienced.
Ronan said: "I have heard of Mr. Bell's serious and responsible professional attitude. I believe Mr. Bell will bring an extremely outstanding role."
Hearing this, Patrick Whitesell said at the right time: "Mr. Anderson, since we have no objections, shall we sign the contract as soon as possible?"
Ronan paused briefly and said, "Yes."
