Superstar

Chapter 60: Rush into battle

"I'm curious, since the crew has Tom Cruise as the first choice, and Tom doesn't seem to refuse now, does it? Then why would the crew seriously consider when Jack proposed to the crew to choose me?" Hugo is more interested in this, because he himself has experienced a series of chaos created by Tracy Jacobs, so Hugo knows that if there is no special impetus, the crew will definitely choose Tom, not his.

"Because they saw your excellent acting talent." Alex, who went back to the room to look for pen and paper, walked back and couldn't help but said aloud, and found that both Joseph and Hugo were looking at him, Alex. An embarrassed smile appeared, "Sorry for interrupting your conversation. But I think Hugo, your talent is definitely better than Tom Cruise, and they are absolutely wise in choosing you."

   Alex’s words made Hugo laugh. Alex is really a fan. He firmly believes that Hugo has enough ability to take over any role. This confidence is very rare.

Seeing Alex raise his hand to signal and prepare to leave, Joseph said aloud, "It's okay, you can stay, it's not a secret." Although this is just a face-to-face today, Alex's kindness Without any conditions involved, Joseph did not reject this loyal Hugo fan too much. Besides, this is really not a secret, and there is no need to hide it.

Without looking at the excited expression on Alex’s face, Joseph went on to explain, “Actually, when Alex said that for a part of the facts, Jack mentioned to the crew that it seemed good to play the protagonist, Columbia Pictures immediately I noticed that you appeared at the premiere of "The Final Analysis", and took away all the limelight of "Instinct. Ability". They think that your temperament is green and sunny, yet justice is not lost. It is indeed very suitable. The male protagonist of this work."

   Hugo didn’t understand, “Wait, why is Columbia Pictures involved again?”

"This movie was invested by Columbia Pictures. They made'Instinct.' but you stole the limelight at the premiere, so you naturally noticed you." Joseph explained briefly, but let Hugo Somewhat dumbfounded. It is estimated that if Lang knew the news, the reaction would definitely be more than an understatement.

   Hugo did not expect that he attended the premiere of Warner Bros.'s works, but was chosen by Columbia Pictures to participate in the audition. No wonder Joseph insisted on arranging for Hugo to attend the premiere. In addition to issues such as exposure and positive image, this hidden follow-up effect is the most precious and important part.

"Also, Columbia Pictures has been negotiating with Tom, but it has not been determined. I heard that it is a matter of remuneration. So Columbia Pictures is also making two-handed preparations." Joseph added that this is Jack's meeting. The reason why the crew recommended actors. Otherwise, if the crew did not seek new suitable personnel, then even if Hugo is outstanding, Jack would not think of recommending him to the crew, "In addition to you, they also found a few alternate actors. , Not much, maybe three or four, and then we will have an audition at that time. As for the result..."

   Hugo nodded. Although Joseph didn't say anything, he could see clearly, "The initiative in the result is not in our hands."

   This time, the audition opportunities are different. It is inevitable that Hugo needs to go all out, otherwise he will lose before the fight. But the problem is that even if Hugo performs again, as long as Tom and Columbia Pictures reach an agreement in the negotiations, then the crew will undoubtedly choose Tom Cruise. Therefore, what Hugo can do, in addition to his own efforts, also pray that Tom and Columbia Pictures will not be able to reach a consensus.

   Hugo took a deep breath, "Anyway, at least you have to start working hard from the audition."

   Joseph nodded slightly, Hugo still could see clearly. And Alex, who was standing next to him, also said excitedly, "Don't worry, Hugo, you can definitely do it! I believe you will be able to get this role in the end!"

   Hugo was amused by Alex's confident words. No matter how he felt that Alex was more confident than himself. "By the way, what is the name of this work? When is the audition?"

"'Yihai Xiongfeng (A. Few. Good. Man)', invested 30 million US dollars." Joseph's words still made Hugo's brain work, but the next sentence made Hugo stunned, "Audition If they do, they hope to have dinner with you today."

"Today?" Hugo really didn't expect the speed to be so fast, but think about it carefully, when he just crossed over, he drove the ducks on the shelves the next day to participate in the audition of "Dahe Love", but he auditioned directly today. It seems too urgent, "What about the script?"

Joseph shook his head, "You don't need to perform, maybe the audition is mainly to chat with you." In fact, there are various ways of audition, not necessarily every audition will let the actors see the script in advance, it may be random. Let the actor improvise, or it may be that the actor's script is directly asked to read a line to find the feeling.

   But compared to the audition that can be prepared in advance, this kind of uncertain audition is even more confusing, because when there is no way to prepare, the test is the real strength of the actor.

   Hugo let out a sigh of relief, "But that's okay, at least I don't always have to think about how Tom would feel when he plays this scene." A joke made Joseph and Alex both smile.

   On the other hand, Hugo recalled the movie "Yihai Xiongfeng". Hugo once saw this movie, but the impression is not deep, only remember that this is a classic forensic work, once won the Oscar for best picture nomination, in the film Jack Nicholson The performance is definitely a classic, and he won the Oscar nomination for best supporting actor again.

"Yihai Xiongfeng" is starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, Demi Moore, and the director Rob Reiner (Rob. Reiner) is also famous. Sally (When. Harry. Met. Sally is enough to make countless people remember. If Hugo remembers correctly, the film's box office seems to be pretty good that year, after all, the cast is really strong. Naturally, the two male actors need not say much, and Demi Moore has just become a first-line actress with the help of "Human Ghost", and his appeal cannot be underestimated.

   In fact, compared to the story, actors, and awards of the movie, Hugo’s most impressive impression is the screenwriter Aaron Sorkin (Aaron. Sorkin) of this movie.

As a screenwriter, Allen first was the lead writer of the classic series "The West. Wing", and then he reached the peak of his career in 2010. He wrote films with special significance of the times. The work "Social Network (The. Social. Network successfully won the Best Adapted Screenplay at the Oscar.

   Hugo has watched "social networks" and was interested in screenwriter Allen, and then discovered the movie "Yihai Xiongfeng". This is Allen's first work as a screenwriter and won a lot of praise. It is a blockbuster.

   Thinking of the basic information of the movie "Yihai Xiongfeng" in his brain, Hugo could not help but sighed. He didn't really have too many memories of the plot, just scattered fragments. In the previous auditions for "Lover on the River" and "Scent of a Woman", Hugo subconsciously imitated the original actor's performance method, and then presented it in his own way according to his own understanding, and achieved good results. In short, it used to be imitating. But now, Hugo can't remember Tom Cruise's performance in "Yihai Xiongfeng", and it is not so easy to continue to imitate.

But then think about it. During the shooting of "Scent of a Woman", Hugo was trying hard to get rid of the traces of imitation, using his own style to interpret the role, although Hugo was only in the scene of confrontation with Al. It broke out once, and then returned to normal again, obviously without a real breakthrough.

But at least, Hugo has successfully explored some of his own things, even if it only touched the threshold, but if there is a chance to film "Yihai Xiongfeng" again this time, maybe Hugo can explore acting skills again and deepen his own acting skills. Understanding to seek a breakthrough. Maybe, this is a great opportunity!

   Thinking of this, Hugo suddenly realized that if he can get this opportunity to perform, then he will get the opportunity to play against Jack Nicholson!

Jack is undoubtedly one of America’s greatest actor. He and Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman are all actors of the same level. A place not to be ignored~www.novelmt.com~ If you simply look at the Oscar record, Jack has received a total of 12 acting nominations before Hugo Crossing in 2014, and finally won two actor and one supporting actor. There are three statuettes, the most successful actor in Oscar history.

Leaving aside these, Jack’s classic roles in film history are countless. "Flying over the lunatic asylum" is one of Hugo’s favorite works, and in "Yihai Xiongfeng", Hugo’s most impressive impression is Jack’s cunning, Vicious and wonderful acting.

   After Al Pacino, he collaborated with Jack Nicholson? Just imagine, Hugo feels that his body is electrified. Although the challenge is arduous, the breakthrough in acting is undoubtedly more attractive to Hugo.

   Therefore, even knowing that the chance of an audition this time is slim, and even knowing that he is facing the thriving Tom Cruise, Hugo still hopes that he can get this role. His inner self-confidence is stronger than ever!

The excitement and nervousness made Hugo seem a little confused, "But, I'm going to have dinner tonight, then, what should I do now?" Hugo looked at the empty room and the box that was still unopened, suddenly dumbfounded. Up.

   Joseph also looked embarrassed, because the situation upstairs was not much better. It was just that the opportunity of "Yihai Xiongfeng" came suddenly and fiercely. As the passive party, they did not have much choice.

   At this time, Alex, who was standing next to him, asked a very unpleasant question, "Hey, Hugo, may I ask, what is your weight?"
