Heads Up Hollywood

After two hours, the movie ends.

Tang En looked at Jack Nicholson with a smile and asked, "How is it?"

"good."

"Which is good?"

"The pace, the story, the plot, the twists, the performances...everything is very good and has the level of Oscar nomination."

After watching "Gone Girl", Jack Nicholson gave a high evaluation.

Tang En said with a smile: "David Fincher has directed movies like "The Seven Deadly Sins" and "Fight Club".

Jack Nicholson took a deep look at him, "If I remember correctly, "Fight Club" suffered a lot, and Bill McNick was even fired by Fox because of this."

Tang En waved his hand, "Don't worry, this movie won't! My vision has always been very accurate. I said that if this movie can sell well, the box office will not be less than 400 million US dollars, just like I am optimistic about "The Departed" Same."

Jack Nicholson couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Tang En, you have to understand that I didn't mean to refuse you on purpose. In fact, any actor would expect to work with a director like Martin. However, I can no longer accept villains .”

"Isn't it?"

Tang En clearly remembered that in the original version of "The Departed", Jack Nicholson played the villain "Frank Castro".

Jack Nicholson explained: "I have played too many villains, especially "Pirate League: The Curse of the Black Pearl". The audience of this movie is so wide that fans think I am the evil one." Captain Barbossa', this will imprison my play."

Tang En's face tightened, and he was stunned.

no?

Jack Nicholson didn't want to play a villain in The Departed, or was he the reason?

As the producer of "The Departed", Tang En has the responsibility to invite director Martin Scorsese the actors he needs.

With Tang En's current status and status in Hollywood, if he spends too much time talking and stalking, Jack Nicholson will probably have to give him face and accept this villain role.

However, as Jack Nicholson said, this is likely to affect his acting career.

However, after Anthony Hopkins played a few "Hannibal", he played a good guy again, and the whole role could not stand up, and he was insulated from Oscars.

Tang En didn't want to restrict an actor's career development just because of one role.

Not to mention a veteran actor like Jack Nicholson?

It's easy to get together and go away.

Tang En didn't make things difficult for Jack Nicholson anymore, and after sending him away, he invited Martin Scorsese to the president's office of Universal Pictures.

"If it doesn't work, just replace it. Hollywood actors, as long as you tell me, I'll invite you!"

Tang En was very helpless.

Martin Scorsese can also understand, "Jack is my first choice. If he doesn't like the role, I need an actor who can act as well as him."

"Oh?" Dunn was startled, and quickly asked, "Al Pacino? Dustin Hoffman? Or Robert Delony?"

Martin Scorsese smiled slightly, "Al Pacino!"

Tang En felt very strange, "I thought it was Robert Derony."

Before Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert DeLoni was Martin Scorsese's leading man, co-creating Taxi Driver, New York, New York, Raging Bull , "The King of Comedy", "Goodfellas", "Cape Fear", "Casino" and many other movies.

Martin Scorsese said helplessly: "When he was filming "Cape Fear", he said that it was the last time he played a villain in my movie."

"It seems that villains are really unpopular." Tang En shrugged, "Then Al Pacino, I haven't worked with him yet, I hope we can spark."

Tang En has long been friends with this film king who is said to be the best at acting with his eyes.

"By the way, who is the heroine?"

Tang En was very concerned about this.

In the movie, the heroine is his girlfriend... ahem, and also Leonardo's lover.

Martin Scorsese said: "My original intention was Kate Winslet."

"Her? Okay!" Tang En slapped his forehead as soon as the words came out, "She's pregnant, and she won't be able to act in the next year."

"Yeah, I have to choose again."

Tang En pondered for a moment, "How about... How about Rachel Weisz? Or Catherine Zeta Jones? Their acting skills are absolutely fine."

The heroine in "The Departed Walker" is a psychiatrist, so it is destined not to choose a girl who is too young, otherwise Tang En will definitely push Scarlett or Natalie.

Martin Scorsese immediately shook his head, "No, they are both too beautiful to fit the overall structure of the movie."

"Too beautiful?" Tang En was a little surprised.

Martin Scorsese said: "What I want to shoot is a hell that is rotten, dirty, full of desire, full of sin, but always full of vitality. This is a violent 'black utopia'. This world, the soul is How can there be such a beautiful woman in black?"

Tang En knew that he was a film sociologist and a master of film, so he couldn't help laughing: "Pretty women are not contradictory, they happen to be in stark contrast to that kind of borderline darkness."

"No!" Martin Scorsese shook his head firmly, "Beautiful women will take away the audience's attention, I hope they focus on the shadow of the era and the portrayal of society shown in the movie, rather than handsome men and women. "

Tang En opened his eyes wide, "Doesn't that mean that Leon and I have to make up to look ugly?"

"Leon needs to look ugly, you don't have to."

"Why?"

Martin Scorsese stared at his face for a moment, then shook his head, "It looks just right."

It was only then that Tang En realized that he almost vomited blood!

Are you saying I'm not as handsome as that bastard Leonardo?

There's a fart for being handsome, boy!

...

The author of the original version of "The Lost Lover" is far less famous than Twain.

The film stars Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike, and is far less famous than this version of Mel Gibson and Nicole Kidman.

Even so, the original version of "Gone Girl", under the impact of "Annabelle", "Bear Alexander's Bad Day", "Dracula First Year" and other films of the same period, still won 369 million US dollars worldwide. Good results at the box office.

Among them, the North American box office was 168 million US dollars, and the overseas box office was 201 million US dollars.

This version of "The Lost Lover" has a better schedule, a stronger cast, and a higher reputation. It's hard not to think it's popular!

On Wednesday, the North American box office was 8.75 million US dollars;

On Thursday, the North American box office was 6.48 million US dollars;

On Friday, the North American box office was 13.17 million US dollars;

On Saturday, the box office in North America was 15.18 million US dollars;

On Sunday, the North American box office was 10.46 million US dollars.

North American box office in the first week, 54 million US dollars!

It directly broke the first-week box office record of a Hollywood R-rated film.

It is aimed at the momentum of US$200 million in North America and US$500 million globally.

"Twain, last weekend, our novel sold another 460,000 copies in North America!"

Ella Fisher excitedly ran into Tang En's office.

"Oh, really? Good news." Tang En replied with a smile, but he really didn't care about such a small matter, "How was the ratings of the last issue of "Flying Bridge?"

Which reality show is the hottest and hottest in America right now?

Without a doubt, American Idol on ABC!

But which reality TV show is the most critically acclaimed?

It's Runway on Starz!

Since the program started broadcasting in mid-March, it has immediately become a boutique reality show highly praised by the media.

Unlike "American Idol", which is suitable for all ages and audiences, "Runway" is not very entertaining, but it is more professional, with novel content, and has attracted the attention of the elite.

"Flying Bridge" aired three episodes, and STA's subscribers have increased by 790,000!

The broadcast effect is comparable to a high-quality American drama.

Counting another reality show "Face Changing" ("Special Effects Makeup Artist Showdown") that aired in June, and the big-budget American drama "The Walking Dead" that aired in October...

Chris Albrecht, the person in charge of the STA TV network, has even released bold words, confident that the subscribers of the STA TV network will exceed 20 million within this year!

Isla Fisher laughed: "Well, "Runbridge" is so popular. Global TV and STA TV network have received hundreds of letters from designers asking to participate in this program, and many more Beautiful model, if you want to join for free, you can also appear naked or naked."

Tang En shook his head amusedly, "Let them deal with it!"

It is a hundred times more difficult to get ahead in the modeling industry than in the film and television industry!

It’s not about being good-looking and having a good figure, you need to be popular, but you also need to have characteristics, means, connections, and opportunities.

"I have a friend who is an Australian model, and she also wants to participate in this show." Isla Fisher looked at Tang En pitifully.

""Flying Bridge"?"

"Um."

"How are the conditions?"

"Excellent! I can guarantee that she is no worse than Heidi Klum!"

Heidi Klum is the host and judge of "Flyover", and the top angel supermodel of Victoria's Secret. With an annual income of more than 10 million US dollars, she is a great god in the modeling industry.

Isla Fisher is talking too much in order to give her friend a chance.

Tang En had a half-smile, and didn't believe it at all.

Isla Fisher said anxiously: "Really, don't underestimate people! She said that as long as you can get through the relationship, it doesn't matter who you need to sleep with or what price you pay."

Tang En was stunned for a while, feeling helpless and sighing at the same time.

The model circle is the kind of "black utopia" that Martin Scorsese said!

Tang En sighed and said, "Forget it, since I'm your friend, I definitely want to help. You can tell Tosca and let her arrange it herself. There is no chance for this season, and the models have already been selected. Next For one season, a place will be given to your friends."

"Next season? Isn't that next year? It's too late." Isla Fisher was very unhappy.

Tang En spread his hands and said, "I can't do anything about it. "Flying Bridge" started recording in February, and now it's aired for 3 episodes. It's too late to join."

"Didn't "Universal's Next Top Model" start in June? Let her participate in this competition!" Ella Fisher suddenly thought of something and said excitedly.

"Universal's Next Top Model" is a reality show transformed by Tang En based on the plan of "America's Next Top Model". It started recording in early June, aired on NBC at the end of July, and completed the first season at the end of October.

Tang En was a little surprised, ""Universal Next Top Model"? Most of the models here are professional models, but it's no better than "Runway", your friend, okay?"

"Don't look down on me! My friend is amazing!" Isla Fisher stomped.

Tang En waved his hand, "Forget it, since you insist, arrange for her to go to "Universal Next Top Model Contest". Don't blame me if you make a fool of yourself."

Isla Fisher was very reconciled and thought aggrievedly: "Hmph, when my friend becomes the champion model of "Universal Next Top Model", you still look down on me!"
