Chapter 217: Action actress


Walking side by side with Angelina Jolie on the wooden floor, Ronan looked at the slightly bulging biceps between her curved arms and said, "The effect of the exercise is obvious."
Angelina Jolie glanced at Ronan and said, "You are not bad, you are stronger than when I first saw you."
Both of them work out in this fitness club, and they also have the same fitness instructor. They often meet, and they are relatively familiar.
Luo Nan said as he walked, "I heard that "Tomb Raider" is finished?"
"It's finished." Angelina Jolie said simply: "I just finished it before Thanksgiving. I ran a lot of places. This is my first time shooting an action movie.
Ronan took the opportunity to say, "Do you want to make another one." He pointed to Angelina Jolie's smoothly contoured upper arm, and said: "It's hard to get it out. They should be useful."
Angelina Jolie rolled her eyes insignificantly, and her thick lips rolled slowly: "It's too tiring to shoot an action movie, and it's easy to get injured if I'm not careful. I was injured once when I was shooting location scenes in Cambodia. "
Ronan asked concerned: "Where did it hurt? It doesn't matter, right?"
One of Angelina Jolie’s hands fell unconsciously on her hips. She was a bold person, and she didn’t twitch, and said,
I fell down when I landed, and a hard branch pierced me. Go in. Fortunately, it's just a skin wound, and it's healed now."
Ronan nodded, subconsciously wanting to say that fortunately this place is thick, but knowing this is wrong, he said, "It's okay." He turned the subject back again: "As long as you protect yourself, it's actually not that easy to get hurt. ."
"Why do you fancy me?" Angelina Jolie was a little curious: "With you and your company, it shouldn't be difficult to find actors."
Ronan said directly: "The number of really popular actresses is actually limited. I have contacted a few and found that you are the most suitable."
This was secretly praised, Angelina Jolie has not had as much thought as she later, obviously very useful, smiled and said: "You should talk to my agent about this."
"He is not letting go because he is biting on 7 million dollars in salary. I have a headache." Ronan said directly: "The crew only has a budget of 20 million dollars. I can't afford the 7 million dollars in salary."
After Shahai Entertainment contacted Angelina Jolie's agent several times, the film remuneration talked about a stalemate of $7 million.
Angelina Jolie said: "What project is it?"
She is not repulsive to action movies. She has already won the performance award and has invested so much. She must find a way to recoup her money and make more money.
Ronan said, "I have given your agent the script and character concept map. Oh, yes, I also have it in my briefcase. How about I give it to you?"
Angelina Jolie did not refuse, and said, "It's okay to see."
Ten minutes later, the two returned to the dressing area. Angelina Jolie directly followed Ronan into the locker room that belonged to him. Ronan found the briefcase from the cabinet and found out the heroine Celine of "Underworld" Na's conceptual artwork and role setting were handed to Angelina Jolie.
This was specially prepared by him. He originally planned to talk to Angelina Jolie when he met her in the fitness club.
Angelina Jolie took it, turned it over, and saw the graceful figure outlined by the tight leather jacket, with a strange sense of familiarity.
Ronan said directly: "The appearance of this character is based on some of your characteristics."
Angelina Jolie looked at Ronan, her wild face with a bit of puzzlement.
"Action actresses are very rare in Hollywood." Ronan simply explained: "But if this type is done, it may become Super A, but the requirements for action actresses are relatively high. Let's put it this way, Julie. I personally I think that the conditions for becoming a top action actress are more stringent than getting an Oscar for acting. And you, have these conditions."
There are a few Hollywood stars who don’t want to be superstars, Angelina Jolie is no exception: "Ronan, your lobbying is very convincing. But my father said a long time ago, don’t believe the producer’s words lightly. In order to achieve their goals, the producers dare to say anything."
Ronan helplessly spread his hands: "Everyone who has worked with me in Hollywood knows that I am the most honest and reliable person."
Angelina Jolie stared straight at Ronan for a long time, but she was also a little puzzled. There was no trace of Hollywood treacherousness and treacherousness on this young and handsome face.
By the way, this person looks really good. A few years ago, maybe...
Angelina Jolie shook her head slightly, got rid of these unreliable thoughts, erected the pile of materials, and asked: "Can I take these away?"
Rona certainly won’t refuse:
Yes, Julie, I’m serious, please think about it. You’ve already won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. It’s too difficult to get Best Actress, even if you get the most A good heroine may not be able to become a superstar, but if you take the action route, it is a shortcut to become a superstar. Even after the success of several action movies, you can become a member of the 20 million club like Julia Roberts. ."
Hearing the last words, Angelina Jolie's chest, which was slightly undulating because of her breathing, suddenly stopped, and after ten seconds, she undulated at a faster rate than before.
Ronan said at this time: "In terms of remuneration, I hope that the early remuneration can be less, and then the latter will be paid in the way of profit sharing.
Angelina Jolie collected the information and said, "I will consider the role carefully. Ronan, let's talk to my agent about the pay."
She waved to Ronan: "See you another day and keep in touch."
"Goodbye." Ronan also waved.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Ronan returned to North Hollywood. That night, he met Kate Beckinsale and her agent at a coffee shop in North Hollywood.
"Ben, it's Ben Affleck." Ronan said to the two people: "He took me to the "Pearl Harbor" crew to watch the samples some time ago. IMHO, Miss Beckinsale, your character is not very good. outstanding."
Kate Beckinsale's face is a bit unsightly, and the agent stares at Ronan, seeming to turn his face at any time.
Ronan bluntly said: "Miss Beckinsale is obviously imitating Nicole Kidman, both in terms of appearance and temperament or performance shaping, right?"
Kate Beckinsale's white face was instantly overcast.
The agent was a little angry and wanted to rebut, but Kate Beckinsale pulled it gently.
Others don't know, but Kate Beckinsale knows that she is imitating Nicole Kidman in the role of Evelyn.
"Mr. Anderson." The agent suppressed the displeasure in his heart and said: "The action movie does not conform to Kate's style and positioning."
Ronan shook his head and said, "Action movies are a shortcut to becoming a superstar. Haven't you seen the success of "Charlie Girl"? Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz are red to purple. Female action films are becoming The mainstream, with the conditions of Miss Beckinsale, is very suitable for acting as an action role. This is a good opportunity brought by the development of the times!"
He emphasized: "If Miss Beckinsale can seize the opportunity, not only can she establish her own actor style, but after several action movies are successful, she can also become a member of the 20 million club like Julia Roberts. ."
Ronan didn't blush or beat his heart when he said such purely foolish words.
Kate Beckinsale touched the agent's foot, stood up and said, "Excuse me, I'll go to the bathroom."
The agent knew that she did not want to participate in the next conversation, and also avoided the head-on conflict with the rapidly emerging young producers in the industry. After Kate Beckinsale went away, he said: "We also seriously considered what Mr. Anderson said. This possibility. Kate also hopes to cooperate with Shahai Entertainment, but Shahai Entertainment also has to show sincerity?"
Ronan understood what he meant and said directly: "The $5 million salary is too high."
The agent said a little tough: "Kate just starred in a big production costing 140 million US dollars! And she is the heroine!"
"This film has not been released yet, and the success or failure is uncertain." Ronan said lightly: "What if Miss Beckinsale's role is not well received?"
"It's impossible!" The agent became tougher: "The remuneration of 5 million US dollars, less than this figure, there is no need to talk about it."
Negotiations are almost dead, Ronan is ready to leave, and finally said before leaving: "The basic salary of 2 million US dollars, plus 1% of the box office profit. Think about it, female action movies are the most suitable type for Miss Beckinsale. ."
It's a pity that the broker doesn't listen at all.
Ronan didn't say much, and left directly.
Kate Beckinsale is far from worth $5 million.
Again, he would rather use the $7 million Angelina Jolie than the $5 million Kate Beckinsale.
From a business perspective, the latter is inferior to the former in any respect.
There is no news from Angelina Jolie for the time being, and Kate Beckinsale has little hope here~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan contacted Charlize Theron’s agent afterwards, and also asked Charlize Theron. Long issued an invitation.
The South African diamonds of this era are positioned as pure vases in Hollywood. The pay is not high, but the commercial appeal is limited.
To be precise, even after getting the Oscar actress, Charlize Theron's commercial appeal is not strong.
The American public does not seem to like this type of actress.
Ronan also has doubts, but let people continue to contact him. If the conditions are right, Charlize Theron, who has a cold temperament, can play the role of cold Selena.
Although no candidate for the heroine of "Underworld" was confirmed, Ronan left Los Angeles as planned and rushed to New York to prepare for more critical work.
After leaving JFK Airport and rushing to the hotel in Manha, Ronan met Robert Lee and asked directly: "How is it? What's the situation on Marvel Comics?"
Marvel is the later Marvel, after Disney acquired Marvel Comics in the previous life, it changed its Chinese name.
